List of Toyota D4D Probems (Choking, Hard Starting, etc.)

[shibby75]

isa lang masasabi ko, wag maniwala sa ahente.

Your money, your own risk. Ganun naman ang nangyayari sa problema ng d4d. Swertehan

[Ginnova]

If were you , I would not risk my hard earned money for a d4d at the moment especially if you will be keeping the car for a long time.

I agree. Before I bought my new Vehicle (Sept. 2010), I did some research and what me decide not to buy an Innova D4d is because of some feedbacks from owners who have had bad experience with their Toyota diesel vehicle. Unless you really want a Toyota brand, better get a gasoline variant instead. I feel bad for those people who unluckily experienced those choking problems. It is hard earned money and it should not give you problems at all for a short period of time. As for me, I end up buying a nice VGT powered SUV that can even literally swim through flood. I read from a motoring writer that a new and a much more improved model is coming soon. Hope this time, the engine will be way different from the present one.

Ako din, agree din

Diesel sana kukunin namin na innova, kaya lang nabasa ko dito parang hindi pa 100% solved ung mga D4d issues. Sayang naman ung hard-earned money natin kung dun tayo sa hindi sure. Although may point ung isang poster na wag papadala sa ibang mga sabi-sabi at kung ano talaga ang napupusuan mo ay un ang kunin mo. Kaya lang sa lugar ko, masmaigi na ung may peace of mind ako na everything is fine. Kaya ayun, gas na binili ko

Bayaw ko ahente ko sa toyota, sabi nya wag daw diesel at may mga bumabalik pa daw na tumirik, kahit bago pa.

ito, pinsan ko taga toyota, doon sa planta ng Sta. Rosa, ako na mismo nagsasabi, may problema pa rin talaga. may mga tips siya sa amin kung Toyota ang kukunin, let me give an example.. kung Yaris ang kukunin, better to get a Vios, VVTI than D4D etc. yun lang ayaw lang sabihin kung bakit.

[mikomac]

most of us pinoy still admire toyota kahit na meron paring minor defects ang mga products nila, but still toyota were able to solve some problems kahit hindi pa 100% solved.

my uncle has 5 units of d4d grandia that is currently being used as a ambulance. pero seems there's no problem in the engine.. still working and strong.

i'd say hindi lahat ng d4d ay may so-called "factory defects" tsambahan lang talaga mga sir.

i am an OFW and very much sure to get a 4x2 A/T dsl FORTUNER when i come home next month. i have read most of the threads here at lumalabas na yun models 2005-2008 ang may prob sa D4Ds. na fix na ba kaya nila yun problem sa mga models 2009 onwards? how would i know the manufacturing year of the unit ? makikita ba eto sa paperworks or naka stamp eto sa nameplate ng unit?

please reply naman po just to make sure i can get worth of my hard earned money sa bibilhin kung sasakyan..

salamat po

ganun pa din ang problem ng d4d ng toyota. hit or miss, so i suggest na look for other brands. but if you are willing to take the risk, then go ahead. or better yet, get the gas variant.

the Fortuner has always been my fantasy..i will still go for it at any risk... pero para may laban ng konti, how would i know the manufacturing date ng unit? mas may laban kasi kung 2009 onwards ang manufacturing.. baka makatsamba...

[shibby75]

double post po

[shibby75]

Next yir lalabas na daw bagong hilux,fort atbp.

Mag gas ka na lang , 2.7vvti. matulin at wala pa tirik.

[telong75]

sure, kaso nga with rising price in gas tapos liter to km ratio, mas makakatipid ka pa rin sa D4D's, yun nga lang may sugal.

so far, ok pa naman D4D ko,after 6 months noticed na mas tumulin at tumipid pa ako sa diesel, 10km/l vs my 5 yr old civic na 8km/l plus P10.

ayos.... lumaksa na naman ang loob ko... tama ka meron lang risk of getting a d4d but there is no greater joy than having a car of your dream.. i am definitely going for a d4d fortuner this summer.

10km/l ok na ata sa newer toyota hilux. But 8km/l sa 5 year old civic is kinda bad. Baka me problema. City driving my 18 year old diesel truck (toyota) runs 7km/l and 6 year old city runs 12km/l. Regular maintenance lang.

its official, after 5 long years of satisfied and excellent service of my d4d (innova 05), i am now one of the victims of the dreaded D4d woes. Casa just replaced what they call "suction control valve" to address the problem without necessarily replacing the whole supply pump assembly. To those owners before 2008 or even to those who owned them after, for me, it is just a matter of time, it is bound to fail..high time for the passage of "lemon" law

mga pre, ung sinasabi bang problem ng D4D engine dito is pag namamatay ang engine, sa exprience nyo ba kumadyot (parang tumalon) bago namatay yung engine? o as in biglang namatay ng bigla na lang? please reply. thanks. my innova now is going to 5 months old. wala pa namang problema, basta nagka leak ung shock absorber ko at irereplace nila yun. ODO reading is 5214. kinakabahan tuloy ako. sana naman walang problema akong ma encounter sa D4D. hay.

[kevin3000]

hiace at hilux namin d4d walang prob.

Has anyone experienced this?

3 days ago it rained hard in QC. At Amoranto water was more or less 4" deep. I drove my Innova through this 4" flood taking care not to over splash. Its only a 25 meters stretch. Now after a few minutes, my Innova started to hesitate at first gear. The engine did not stop, but the car jerked because of hesitation. Then it drove fine.

The following day, same problem presented itself once into my 15km ride to the office.

Today I parked with my engine on for 10 mins. When I started to drive, the Innova choked, hesitated then the engine stopped. I had to re-start in the middle of Quezon Avenue. After that all is well again.

So the problem started when I drove my Innova in a flooded street. What could be the cause?

I drive a 2008 Innova D4D E Manual. Odo 26,700+.

Any ideas guys.

Is this the flood near the Asia Renal Care and Banawe? nakita ko kasi may innova ako nakita na tumuloy parin sa baha. I think this is you. I'm on my way home, but we have no choice to stop at shell kahit umaakyat na yung baha sa gas station. I still have pics of that momment.
