Non-CASA Maintained Innova (or any Toyota Vehicle)

**Lew_Alcindor** · February 9th, 2015 02:39 PM

Hi Guys!

Meron ba dito na hindi na sa casa nagpapa PMS?
On my 20,000kms ako na lang nagpalit ng oil filter ko (fully synthetic nung 15,000kms kaya oil filter lang muna).

Plano ko na din DIY maintenance/or sa suking mekaniko (oil change etc.) from here on except sa cases na casa lang may kaya, i.e. sila lang may parts or proper equipment.

I'll just use the owner's manual as reference for things I have to inspect, replace or lubricate.
Tapos regular change oil interval (5,000kms which is 6 months for us).
Then good quality oil filter (Baldwin ako ngayon).

Anyway, any tips from owners of non-casa maintained vehicles?

Vios sa kin, since I know it reliable at di kailangan warranty, sa labas na ko Nagpapa PMS. May checklist naman sa manual. After those horror stories about CASA. And my last CASA PMS eh mukhang nag pahinga lang yung mekaniko sa loob ng kotse, di na ko sa CASA nag PMS.

Akin nman eh caltex DGU at bosch filter na available sa bosch service center. Baldwin ako dati kaso hirap I acquire.

Ok naman yung bosch service center, pinapaliwanag sa kin kung may problema silang nakikita sa sasakyan.

yung 4 yr old innova ko di nakatikim ng casa service since day 1. hehehe. i just bring it to my friendly neighborhood gasoline station for pms. i tell them what to do. so far so good * 50K kms. she still runs like brand new.

basta maayos ka gumamit ng auto di namna basta basta masisira yan.

sa mga cars dito, 1st 1k and 5k lang ang casa maintenance. just to be sure walang sira or anything needing warranty. sa 10k, ako na gumagawa ng change oil

Our Innova Gas A/T,- sa Shell Gas Station sa labas ng village namin ang PM niya every 5KKm, since its 10KKm mileage.

It is now 35KKm and six years old....

Our cars, after 20,000kms or 30,000km are serviced outside the CASA. I follow the requirements on the owner's manual and i always use original Toyota parts (usually bought from Toyorama) unless the replacement part is of better spec (i.e. Baldwin oil filter).

**Lew_Alcindor** · February 10th, 2015 09:44 AM

Glad to know madaming owners ng non-casa vehicles na wala naman naging probema.

Re: oil filters, mejo mahirap nga maghanap ng Baldwin lalo na dito sa probinsiya (Laguna).

First time ko gumamit ng Baldwin pero 3 na agad inorder ko para sulit ang shipping.

We go to Shell lube service for common PMS for our Innova since it came out of warranty (change engine oil, transmission oil, gear oil, filters, undercoat). Fuel filter ako na lang nagpapalit every 5k kilometers. Same with cabin filters.

Once pa lang ako nagpalinis ng aircon at a trusted shop in Banawe. Nagpaservice lang ulit ako sa Casa when I got the SCV replaced. Basta vital parts I go for OEM. May schedule naman sa manual to follow.

75k plus kilometers on my odo, no problems encountered naman. Next replacement will be the shock absorbers.

Kahit tiga-Maynila naman, relatively harder to get Baldwin filters. In my case (and as with CB), nag hohoard nalang kami for the next few change oils.

That was what i did recently, 40K service. I just bought original Toyota gear oil and cabin filters, and my suking tindahan did the rest. I use a K&N drop-in for the air filter (more for longevity than anything else) and Baldwin oil filter elements (which i have to order again since pa-deplete na yung hoard ko nito).

Have a Gen 3 vios and is now nearing its 5K check up. Sa casa na muna since free labor pa naman. Might be sticking with casa until 10k PMS then sa labas na lang. With a similar query from earlier post would like to know car service shops that offer lube and some mechanical jobs in cavite area.

Kung malapit ka sa bosch service center, meron sa Molino road meron din sa Molino Blvd. You just have to bring your own oil, yung filter nila is bosch.

Try mo maghanap ng Goodyear Servitek within your area. Usually kaya nila basic PMS jobs.

My brother's ride is a toyota avanza. Out of warranty and it has not been to a pms for more than a year now. Can someone refer to me your suking non casa shop for maintenance and a checklist of what to replace? Its a gas fed m/t. We also lost our manual/pms cheklist. Thanks. Anywhere near cavite would be better. 👌

my bottomline...
if you know what needs to be done, and you are willing and able to mando mando the workers on how to do it, then you should have little problem outside the casa.
but if you do not know what needs servicing and checking, you are probably better off in the casa..
