    Hi Guys,
    Need your advice on this one, heard a lot of problems with Toyota's D4D engine but friends are telling me that it is still a better buy than the Gas variant.Personally, im torn between the two. Here are the requirements

    Planning to get an Innova, choices
    1.) 05 Diesel E Variant Manual 35,000KM
    2.) 06 Gas G Variant Matic 51,000KM

    What will last longer? Preferably til 2015
    Is there a big difference with the km/liter average?
    Which is easier to maintain?
    Does the Innova have underchassis/performance issues?

    Car will be used for only 3 times a week (2 codings and 1 Sunday)

    Hoping for your advice

    Since maybe you are planning to use the innova till 2015, i will get the gas variant g na lang, pag diesel kasi baka sasakit lang ulo mo sa injector in the long run.

    as per experience, this is not the case always. we have the gas variant and from legazpi city, we bought 1,000 pesos gas (mas mahal dun), then off we went to manila. pagdating dito, meron pa ring gas. i think distance of that route is more or less 600-700kms.

    Gas na lang. Although mas mataas ang gas mas kaunti ang problema mo dun. Kasi in the lon grun, injector nun sakit sa ulo kapag diesel. And, G variant pa yun. 2nd sa top of the line ng innova

Need Advice: 05 Innove E Diesel M/T or 06 Innova G Gas A/T
