June 4th, 2010 10:18 AM #731as per sir dieseldude's last post, it's still wait and see whether the pump upgrade will solve the problem or not.
What's weird to me is that there doesn't seem to be a general pattern emerging. If the fuel quality here really is the culprit then we should be seeing a lot more innova diesels keeling over at the side of the road.

No one can really tell that. Sure, Toyota will tell you it has been solved. However, we don't have the statistics to prove it to be so. The mere fact that there were occurences of such problems, it will always be a cause for concern especially for new buyers like you. Mine is an 07 D4D but had only accumulated less than 22000 km so far. Problems with the engine - Nope.. Happy with the performance - definitely!!. Though I become agitated when I started reading this thread. If I were in your position I might be thinking twice or thrice myself. There are a lot of happy D4D owners I know. But then, I also occasionally see Innovas and Fortuners emitting black smoke as if they don't have Common rail engines. Do not always believe what the Sales Rep are saying, most of them hindi alam ang mga bagay na ito. Talk to other innova owners. It won't hurt you to start a conversation with a few you would encounter here and there. In the end, it will be your decision.
If your fuel allowance can afford the use of gasoline, then go for the Gas variant if you are really keen on getting an Innova. It really is a great multipurpose family car.

When we buy a car, there should be a "peace of mind" package that comes with the unit and not the agony/torture package..
Simple lang yan bro, signs and symptoms of the D4d engine problem is this, hard starting especially during cold starts.. Usually it starts but the engine dies a second later, then you start it again this time you have to press the gas pedal.. Once you experience this, get ready for the stalling so always wear your seatbelt, remember most moderns cars are electronic, so if the engine dies, your power steering dies, so will your brakes.. Oh and pray to God your only cruising at low speeds(in and out of the metro), if your cruising at Nlex,Sctex or Slex at speeds of over a 100kph, I don't know what else to say.. This is not to scare you bro, this is reality.. This is how dangerous the D4d problem is, and toyota doesn't seem to be concerned about it, if not for the news broadcasted a while back with fireblade on it, I don't think they will ever solve this problem, and the bad news is, they still haven't.. Well, at least in our case.. There should've been an announcement or something saying they will recall all 05-08 Innovas.. But nothing..

the problem on these, is that, some dealers are on a complete denial of the said d4d issue.....
i've even talked to some dealers (toyota-alabang); according to them they have not heard of any kind and/or have not encountered any repairs on that said issue - for me, what such a big liar!

June 13th, 2010 10:24 AM #736How sad for the Filipino consumer!!!!!! Denials on such issues by dealer representatives, can only aggravate the problem. With all the posted problems here, they should seriously confront this issue. Why then did they upgrade their design?
I hope a dealer rep would reply to this post.

Last weekend I had a complete fluid drain and replacement on my Innova at a nearby Gasoline station, while watching the mechanic does his routine a lady approaches me and ask if my Innova is diesel and I said it was gas variant. She asked me if I know what's the problem with her 2006 Innova D4d that was showing signs of hard starting and stalling and I said your Innova now needs fuel pump replacement that cost P40K++ and she was shocked. I told her to read reviews and post of fellow Innova users here in tsikot.
