    Hi guys I have just bought a Toyota Innova 2.8E Diesel A/T this year actually first car ko sya yung usage ng car is mostly during weekends lang talaga and more on city driving very occasional lang yung mga out of town. Ask ko lang sana is there such a thing as a best Diesel Product for Toyota Innova based on your experience para mamaximize yung efficiency at performance nya?

    No such thing. Just get the cheapest from a relatively new and reputable gas station which doesn't experience flooding.

    Don't fall for those vpower diesel or turbo diesel marketing schemes. It doesn't do any better than your regular diesel.

    Don't have an Innova. But in my experience with various diesels both CRDi and non-CRDi, performance difference among fuel brands is insignificant to the everyday driver, especially now that they are all at least Euro 4.

    I always gas up with the cheapest station in my area, which happens to be Seaoil. In comparison with the much more expensive Petron Turbo Diesel from a few blocks away, I have noticed no significant difference in both performance and fuel consumption in my Santa Fe CRDi. Perhaps their STP additives really can go toe to toe with Big 3 premium diesel fuels...

    the cheaper ones will usually give you more km/peso, basta hindi adulterated ang fuel, intentionally or otherwise.
    the usual diesel engines aren't really designed specifically for performance. i do not think we will realistically tell the difference from among the fuel brands.
    at least... i don't.
    my opinion.

    Thank you for the shared knowledge mga sir medyo oc lang din siguro ako since parang theres so much to learn in maintaining a car pala pero I am enjoying the process naman so I guess just fuel up with a reputable gas station will be the safest option na nga lang din.

    basta sa mga bagong gas stations hangga't maari yung tingin mo alaga ang tangke at di binabahang lugar okay ka na. tsaka consider mo din yung wag madalas magkarga na pakonti-konti kung maselan ka para less bukas ng tangke na iwas pasok ng contaminants. gaya ko pag malakas ulan di ako nagpapakarga...kanya kanyang arte yan eh

    i suddenly remembered,
    years ago, in the rurals.
    i went to the barrio sari sari store, to buy a karayom.
    "hindi po puede."
    "bakit?"
    "umu-ulan."

    apparently, it was his belief, that opening the needles container in rainy weather, would result in hastened rusting..."

    OT.

    Kahit umuulan, pag full-tank, lalabas lahat ng hangin at ang matitira ay maliit na air pocket na lamang.

    Magiging problema lang and contaminants sa Diesel fuel kapag marami masyado (yung contaminants) or matagal naka-tengga ang Diesel fuel sa tank mo dahil yung water contaminants pwede mag cause ng Diesel "bug" (ie. bacterial and fungal growth). Pero kung daily driver yan at nagpapakarga ka at least every other week, negligible ang build-up ng contaminants at humidity at kayang-kaya na ng fuel filter at water separator yan.
