May 17th, 2011 07:51 AM #1hi,
any thoughts on why innova is lower by 10mm on the driver side? i don't think my weight of 170 lbs would impact it that much! take note that the gas tank is just 1/4 full.

How old is your unit and what is the mileage? Check first the shocks and springs.

oo nga sir normal na ata yan kasi 10mm (0.39 inches.) lang naman...
what do you mean sir kung sa passenger side ka uupo di sya bababa ng 10mm?

May 17th, 2011 10:45 AM #6yes, because i clean the wheel well. pag me difference sa sukat ng buka between wheels and fender, ramdam ko agad. then i will measure from a level ground, and the 10mm difference came out.
i don't think it should be normal. vehicles should have a level stance when unladen - bare stock, correct tire size and inflation, all fluids filled, gas tank filled up.
at this point, that its bare stock, correct tire size, inflation and 1/4" filled gas, the driver side is already lower by 10mm. take note that the gas tank of an innova is on the driver side.

as long as its not lower by .5" then let it be. di naman halata yan unless you take a close look.

May 17th, 2011 12:04 PM #9sir,
had the same problem before. when you have your PMS tell it to your SA. they will check fender clearance from the ground and fender clearance from the rims/tires. both sides yan. then they will adjust if necessary. had this issue with my car before ( less than 2 months old). may spacers lang ata silang nilalagay. fyi, 170 lbs din ako.
had mine fixed at Toyota Balintawak. minsan tamad ang SA and will tell you na normal lang yan. don't believe him. if you prod him to, they will adjust the height. this is coming from my experience lang naman.
hope this helps.
