^brake fluids are hygroscopic (absorbs moisture in the air)..this device helps the user assess how much water is in the brake system..water corrodes the metal components of the brake system of any vehicle
When theres too much water on the brake fluid..its time to change to avert corrosion
It's not the job of this device to detect corrosion but to prevent it with due competence and diligence from the owner

Fuel filter can be changed outside every year. Mura lang naman yan.
Brake fluid, change every year or 2, depende sa budget. Ideally every year. Preno kasi yan.
ATF, yours is a sealed type kaya wala na dipstick. But it can still be replaced. Drain bolt lang naman and then there is a filling hole. Pwede rin dialysis. Make sure the amount drained is equal to amount filled.
Brake pad, have your mechanic visually inspect it. Chances are, manipis na ito. So replace mo na lang. I heard brembo pads are cheaper than casa originals.
I DIY maintenance of my cars so i do the above maintenance myseld, depending gaano ako kasipag and need the exercise.

fuel filter - sa monty ko 20k kms but nung sinunod ko dami dumi, so i replace every 10-15k kms.
atf - as long as di contaminated para sa kin and di pa iba kulay.
brake fluid - same din but ako i use syringe to replace the one in reservoir if ever mag iba kulay.
brake pads, depende sa gamit yan. visual check.
Thanks sa sagot. I will do those maintenance requirements by installment. First, aside as regular change oil and filter ko for the 35k pms. Isabay ko ngayon yung change of fuel filter. Then sa 40km pms, I will also do oil differential change, then as 50km pms, gagawin yung atf change. Para hindi mabigat sa bulsa. Ok kaya yun?
good day sir dati ganyan din ako pero after considering everything ang buhay natin
hindi pedeng palitan at sir i-condition mo narin ang sarili mo sa gastos talagang ganyan
milyon ang halaga ng ride mo. nagset aside ako unti unti ng pang PMS para pag dating ng
sked PMS konti na lang dagdag ko. gulong sir will set you back 30-40k handa ka na rin
in the long run sa bulsa lang masakit sa ulo wala. just a piece of my experience
at tama si drd mineral oil will do basta consistent lang ang palit every 5k hindi ka naman
kuma-karera
Follow the service manual... fuel filter should be changed every 20k kms.. mura lang yung filter and 100% can be DIY! Differential oil kahit sa 80k km mo ba palitan..lalo na pag di ka naman na lusong sa tubig baha.. sa ATF walang palitan yan pero to be sure change mo sa 40k kms
Baka nagkamali lang ng sabi. Meron service manual which is available lang sa mga authorized service center, or basically sa casa. Which normally indicates kung paano mga procedures ang dapat sundin ng technician while servicing the vehicle.
Sa owners manual, nandun sya sa pages or section related sa periodic maintenance. No service procedures at ang naka indicate ang mileage at time interval kung kailan mag inspect and replace specific parts and fluids.
according to my owner's manual:
the fuel filter of the innova gas engine is to be replaced every 80,000 km or 48 months, whichever comes first.
the fuel filter of the innova diesel engine, does not need periodic replacement.
yespo. the innova diesel engine fuel filter and the gas engine fuel filter, do look different from each another.

Mga sir, the maintenance I do on my fortuner 2016 diesel a/t is this:
Every 5k change oil and filter.
Every 10k or 15k change air filter sa engine and air filter sa aircon.
But I need to know when:
Change atf?
Change coolant?
Change break fluid?
Change rear oil differential?
Change fuel filter?
Timing belt or timing chain?
And for the atf and oil differential, what oil to use?
