December 9th, 2005 02:23 PM #92ako mas gusto ko fortuner, re D4D engine, its also a common rail technology the same with the engine of BMW, Mercedez and Hyundai/Kia. Sure pa tayo sa reliability of a Toyota, its sister company Lexus is always consistent #1 in the reliability survey of JD powers. maski german tech yun parts of the Sorento, its still made by Kia, I remembered when the range rover was bought by Ford, the engine is bmw, but when Ford took over, ford manufactured the engine of BMW and reliability suffered a lot.
other reason for choosing a Toyota would be its value in the long run, investing over a million pesos for this kind of car mean I will use it more than 5 years.
Im sure by that time it would still as reliable and di pa rin mawawala pogi points sa porma ng fortuner, and syempre were sure if we decide to sell it, it will retain a higher value and it will not be that hard to sell

It'll enlighten you on the supposedly "reliable" Toyota engine. Toyota quality has been slipping IMO - or the other manufacturers are already catching up with them.
===
One more thing, there is still no recorded carnap / carjack incident for the Sorento AFAIK.

You have absolutely zero pogi points kung tumirik yung engine mo and everyone can see you in the middle of the road scratching your head muttering to yourself 'what could possibly have gone wrong with my brand new D4D engine'.
At the Innova thread - one tsikoteer's 2.5 D4D stalled with odo only at 1,200km. (f**k) . . . . talk about legendary Toyota reliability.
Also, the entire CRDI system of the Sorento isn't just korean-made with german technology; it's actually a Bosch unit in there (made in Germany). It's installed by Kia at their korean assembly plant under german supervision . . . . it's like popping up the hood of a Rexton and you'll see a Mercedes Benz turbodiesel engine with a Garrett turbocharger bolted onto it . . . . don't tell me they're made in korea by SsangYong.

December 14th, 2005 04:46 PM #99if toyota is sooooooo f#cking reliable, how come they make you wait for months to get a unit? don't buy that crap that supply cannot meet the demand! kung gusto nila talaga, they would've refitted and retooled tmpi to assemble fortuners too! they did this na before with the first corolla (16valve)... making you wait for it causes a market demand eh. besides, yang fortuner na iyan is part of the i.m.v. program- meaning ng imv cars that are for developing countires (aka 3rd world) lamang. reasons for that toyota only knows for sure. basta don't expect a fortuner to pound the streets of tokyo or new york or london- no matter what their posters show.
so i must say sorento. besides, i pity those whose primary reason for buying a car is for resale value, imo. di mo pa nga nakukuha iniisip niyo nang ibenta?

Well, one more shocking story why I prefer SORENTO than the FORTUNER Saan ang prestige na sinasabi nila with TOYOTA Fortuner? Mabuti pa ang honda ESI AT ko almost 100K na di pa ako itinirik at mura pa sya compare sa 1.5Million na Fortuner 3.0

Sabi rin nya bagong repair ito galing ng casa pinakita pa nga yong resibo same wd my resibo white bond paper amounting to 113,000 plus palit di lahat ng CRDi system.
