common repairs done to your revo's

**dieselNUBI** · May 2nd, 2006 02:43 AM

guys tanong lang ano mabilis masira sa revo nyo? ano na ang mga napagawa ninyo? kamusta naman ang pang ilalim nito mabilis ba masira? mura lang ba mga pyesa nito. nag hahanap kasi ako ng daily car to be driven 900++kms per week. isip ko revo diesel since diesel is cheaper and most owners say it handles like a car. (so hindi nakakapagod masyado, im driving crosswind xuv and it feels like im driving a truck)

comments lang, thanks!

i own a Revo SR-J 2.0L gas A/T.. no major repair since.. just the usual pms lang.. medyo high mileage lang dahil sa nature of my business.. running 7 days a week (averaging 1,500 kms/month).. i'm getting 9km/L city/highway driving..

repairs done except pms..
50k kms - replace tires, battery, fog light bulb
70k kms - replace ball joints, tie rod ends, wheel bearing, brake pads F/R

around 87k, nasira yung power antenna. malapit na mag 90k di ko pa rin napagawa.. kung bakit naman kasi pag binuksan ko yung HU, taas din antenna kahit cd player gamitin ko.. hehe..

generally, easy and cheap to maintain. parts are relatively cheap even OEM brands.. balak ko na nga palitan since early last year pero parang wala pa din mapili that suits my needs.. siguro kung maglalabas ulit ng new revo baka yun na lang.. IMO, mas comfortable ako gamitin revo kesa sa car ko..

hhmmm malakas ka rin pala gumamit ng oto. how's driving comfortability during long daily drives?

magkano pala naigastos mo sa pinagawa mo pang ilalim? just give me an idea...

my dad owns a 2000 Revo GL diesel .. nasa 105,000km na odometer reading nya ngayon

normal PMS lang and palit timing belt sa 80,000km, sinabay na namin palit ng water pump din yung fuel filter palit every 20,000km .. i think same as crosswind din..

orig pa lahat ng pang-ilalim nya including shocks and ball joints, etc, pati yung wheel alignment eh orig from day-1.. wala pa rin kabig hanggang ngayon.. regular wheel balancing lang gawa namin.. regular route nito is novaliches-ust, espana/manila .. so na-idaan na nila ito maraming beses sa espana, dimasalang na baha hehe.. syempre di naman yung mga sobrang taas..

just like the crosswind, walang ECU box ang revo diesel, even the voltage regulator eh yung primitive relay type din hehe.. sa mga revo gas variants kasi eh meron ECU box ang IC type voltage regulators

mga major parts na napalitan na nasira:
1) Sanden compressor after 5 years or nung mga nasa 95,000km odometer reading, pinalitan ni Mang Mario ng surplus denso.. malamig na ulit .. mga 5K din gastos

mga nasira:
1) radiator at 85,000km odometer reading or after 4.5 years, nabutas lang at hinang lang then ok na..

yung battery eh palit every 2 years using motolite exceed..

revo diesel fuel consumption.. 10 to 12km/L sa city driving.. estimate ko lang po ito..

I would suggest na revo diesel na lang para mas matipid ng konti and get at least the GLX variant para all-power .. beware for fake upgraded revo hehe na nilalagay GLX pero di naman power windows or power door locks hehe

all revo variants ng DLX ang GL eh power steering lang po..

all revo variants GLX, SR, SRJ, LXV, VX200, VX200J, VX240D eh all power na po..
-power windows
-power door locks
-power side view mirror
-w/ alarm
-w/ rear wiper and defogger
-w/ 3pt seatbelt sa 2nd row..
-w/ foglights

then, i personally own a 2003 revo GSX 2.0 gas M/T .. nag-asawa na ako nung 2002 so kelangan ko ng sariling sasakyan hehe.. maka-revo ba kami?? hehe.. wala lang nung time kasi na naghahanap ako nasisikipan ako sa adventure at parang overpriced ang mga crosswinds at maingay diesel..

warranty replacement done by toyota makati:
-aircon hose leak (sagot ng toyota ang freon replacement)
-moist foglight

so far all stock itong revo 2.0 gas namin.. lamon lang talaga sa gas hehe.. 5.0 to 6.0km/L city driving.. never pa ako naka 9.0km/L sa highway..

for me lang po, i would say na ok yung riding comfort and ok naman sa long drive, pero i would say na mas okay yung riding comfort ng revo diesel ng erpats ko dahil gamit nya is bridgestone dueler A/T on 14inch mags, other that the tires hindi ko na alam kung bakit mas matalbog revo ko hehe... pero acceptable naman yung talbog..

if your travelling 1500km a week, why not get an A/T vehicle na lang like crosswinds A/t? although mabagal pero di ka po gaano mapapagod siguro?? or an A/T sedan or SUVs?

btw, long-throw lahat ng M/T transmission ng revo, also includes innova, hilux and hiace.. nakaka-contribute ang long-throw type sa pagod on a long drive even on traffic din..

if your driving a crosswind right now and switched to revo gas 1.8 or 2.0 .. mag-doble po ang fuel bills mo.. i'm sure about this..

pero if your driving a crosswind then switched to revo diesel.. no need to worry about fuel bills.. konti lang difference nya..

the old toyota PH website can be found at the www.toyota-revo.com nasa mainpage po yung link

my crosswind is automatic. un pagod nararamdaman ko sa xwind ko e dahil mabagal sya, parang atat ka na tumakbo ng mabilis pero ayaw naman. then nakakapagod din kasi panay garulgol ng makina naririnig ko. kaya im leaning towards a more carlike auv. yes revo diesel ang nasa isip ko.

okay pa rin kahit long drives. i find it more comfortable pa nga kesa sa car ko, plus maganda din yung padding ng seats nya kaya di masakit sa pwet.. hehe.. hindi masyado matagtag kasi pinalitan ko yung tire ng 195x70x15 (stock-195x65x15).. pinalitan din pala ng toyota yung foglight ko nun dahil nag-moist..

di ko na maalala yung exact amount pero around 3-4k...
