Saw a black Fortuner with plate ZPP xxx this morning. At 30 kph, it was spewing thick black smoke worse than the jeepney that was running beside it.

The secret of cars longetivity is following scheduled maintenance. Have two fortuner 2.5 2008 and 3.0 2013 but never had any problem for the first with mileage of 100K and that's the reason to buy a second one. Also any early sign of problem like emitting black smoke must be attended earlier. You can see only few old SUV of this type with that black smoke but I think those owner is saving for maintenance.

I have a friend with a 6 year old V Fort. It has 160K on the odo. But he is in Thailand. He has no problem whatsoever and has already brought the car to Australia. He does the basic maintenance himself and regularly changes the oil at 5K. I consider him an engine expert and he only follows standard maintenance practice.

1000% agree to this. all cars whatever make and model, gas, diesel, lpg, hybrid, they need to be maintained ....
if ayaw ninyo ipagawa sa casa for whatever reason. then buklatin ang owner manual nandun malinaw nakalagay maintenance schedule at sundan ninyo po ...
kaya mausok ang diesel, may busted na sa fuel system. most probable may injector na sira na. mahal ang CRDI system base sa sabi sa akin ang isang oem diesel injector ng toyota 2kd-ftv (innova, hilux, fortuner) is php 95K!! multiply ninyo pag lahat ng apat na injectors nasira
for diesel.... pakarga sa mapagkakatiwalaang gas station hindi lang kung saan malapit o mura. at eto lang ang pinagkaiba, change fuel filter earlier depending sa fuel quality nabibili mo (some fortuner club member change it every 10Tkm at trust me sa mga pinopost nilang pics sa forum grabe na ng dumi ng fuel filter sa ganung kaaga, eh ang factory rating ay 40Tkm)
Mga sir, is the 2015 innova still a good buy? Has the d4d engine been perfected at this stage? coz i believe the new model with new engine will be launched by 1st qrtr next year. Thanks
I think that the current Innova has reached the peak of its maturity and most, if not all of the kinks that were discovered in the last 9 years have been corrected.
I also considered waiting for the new 2016 model but decided against it. Usually, there's almost always some problems associated with the first "all-new" models. Couple that with a higher price tag of the upcoming model, I decided to get the current 2.5D A/T Innova G... and just look the other way when the 2016 model comes out. :D
yes, it is still a good product.
but waiting for the new model is a gamble.. sometimes, the outgoing model is prefered by some users over the incoming model..
isa lang naman ang pintas ko sa current innova... the wider turning circle.. our neighborhood has narrow streets..
hi po. ung innova ko bigla lumalabas engine light tas pag pinatay ko makina
.. marereset sya tas mwawala. engine scanning mejo magulo. una lumabas throttle problem. wala nman nakitang problema. nag carb cleaner kami lag scan nawala na ung throttle error. pero ganun pa rin sya.. nag dedelay ang palo ng meter kahit nakatapak na ko. tas lumalabas pa rin engine light. ano tingin nyo mga boss?
