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

[ment]

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.

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)

been maintaining my innova sa casa mainly to avoid issues with voiding warranty but since its almost 3 years old, the warranty will expire already so I plan to DIY many of the common jobs like oil/filter/fluid changes. where do you suggest buying parts (filters for example) and should I stick with toyota branded or do you recommend other brands? TIA

sorry naligaw, kala ko nasa innova thread ako

2.5 d4d engine needs 6.9L oil on a toyota standard size oil filter. but around 6.7 is enough.

it's a known issue. palitan mo lang ng screw type na clamp para di na mag leak.

Nawala na ba yung fuel filter light? Ganyan din ang problem ko, nung umilaw nagpalit din ako ng fuel filter pero naka ilaw pa rin ang fuel filter warning light.

Thanks.

Sirs,

This can be removed by some Toyota casa and can be done DIY...

Just to share, here are the steps:
1. Remove / disconnect warning switch connector of fuel filter.
2. Turn ignition switch to "ON" position - never start.
3. After turning the ignition switch ON, connect the warning switch connector within 3 to 60 seconds.
4. Check that the combination meters filter warning lamp turns off.
5. In case the "Filter Lamp" does not turn off, try to remove first Negative terminal of battery for at least 1 minute and return, then perform items 1 - 4...

Hope this helps .... Tried and tested on our Fortuner and Innova...HTH

I found the same procedure on how to turn off the warning a few days after I posted, it worked.

Thanks.

Buy your parts from casa especially if it is something that is very important like fuel filter or something that you seldom change.

i celebrated the end of my innova's 3 year warranty, by having its oil change in the neighborhood gas station, hecho derecho. i use whatever is in their shelves.
i've been doing this for 7 years now. and the vehicle still runs good.

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

Perfect na. Good buy pa rin ang innova. Yun lang, next year mukhang luma na innova mo kasi may bago na

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
