Toyota Avanza Owners & Discussions [ARCHIVED]

[zuneia]

Ahhh, OK.

One advantage ng Avanza for the lady drivers ay mataas ang vista. Di kailangan isagad sa harap ang upuan, di rin kailangan ng unan.

My wife is 5'0". di siya hirap. Comfortable ang upo nya. Unlike in other cars medyo lubog siya.

Actually mas marami ako na kakasalubong na vanzy puro babae driver, sabi ng ni misis mas madali drive avanza kesa sa city nya, I 2nd that too...

Hey all! long time no post..

Just had my 10k PMS last week in TYT Quezon Ave. Pero ung ODO reading ko nasa 13k+ na and the car is 9 months old already.

Damage is .. Php59++.

Tulad ng karamihan.. pinanood ko kung ano ang ginawa and kinausap ko rin ung nag-ayos para clear kung ano ginawa nya.. Nagstart sila mag-ayos ng 7:30 AM then natapos ako ng 10:30 - 11:00AM.

First is they used the engine flush tapos change oil. Clean break pads and the guy advised that I need to change break pads in next check up. Change spark plugs. May nilagay na fuel something (for better fuel consumption din). May nilagay sya na dagdag sa ATF. Added break fluid. Water also for the wiper. Distilled water for the battery. Sabe saken nung nag-ayos ok pa naman daw battery..

Nung nagback read ako.. meron dito namatayan na ng battery after more than a year na? sa casa ka rin ba kumuha battery? how much inabot nun? someone advised me to have the batteries checked every 9 months.. mahirap na mahintuan e.. i need to buy a jumper cable later or tomorrow..

Then nagpaengine wash na rin ako (600 Php) and carwash (60 Php). Binigyan din nila ako ng sobrang oil since they do not use the cans.. nasa isang malaking balde (with pump) ung oil nila.

After that.. direcho banawe para magpakabit ng extension dun sa muffler and side mirror cover para matakpan ung gasgas dun sa sidemirror. hehehe! Pa-add nlng po ng upgrade sa site hehe! mga 1,100+ or 1,200 ata ung damage ko sa banawe.

I asked them for the price nung roof rail.. 1,500 nlng daw (dikit lng). Next time nlang 'to since I had to go to the office ng lunch time.

Also, i met marfin yesterday.. Hi Marfin

haaaaaaaaaaaaaaay!!!!!!!! long back reading na naman po. welcome to all new proud avanza owners!

hi all,


na butas po ung gulong ko ng turnilyo...pero d pa na cngaw ung hangin kc nandun pa ung screw, ano kaya magandang gwin?


thanks po.

experienced the same thing as you... nadisgrasya na rin ako ng maikli lang screw at kahit nakabaon pa ay deflated na agad kaya derecho na sa vulcanizing ... since i am using N2 now, sa bridgestone ako pumunta. what they did is to have it vulcanized using cold patch. so far, naka 2months na di naman nagbabago. i had also tried hot patch at regular vulcanizing shop.. wala kasing alam pa sa disadvantage of using it nang 1st time maflat sinabotahe yong tire ko kasi sa side ang tama just an inch beside the rim. naka1 yr bago ulit bumigay at pinalitan ng cold patch... buti na lang daw hinde nagoblong yong gulong ko ng lutuin?!

ang bilis naman nung sa iyo sa akin last nov 9 pa..talaga itong toyota makati oo.


bro nakita mo kung pinihit nga mga bolt and nuts mo..nung nagpa 20k check up kasi ako physical inspection lang daw as in tiningnan lang...he he he..kaya di na koa sa toyota makati magpa service ulit next pms ko.

no wonder wala pa din yong sa akin naiinip na ko jan. pa lang naevaluate so mas matagaltagal pang hintayan kasi isa lang owner ng tyt mkt and bicutan. hu3! another HUHUHU! miss ko na naman mga eb's nyo

Congrats sir! ok naman kausap si hermie. Actually installed the cover i purchased from him last nite at pinutikan nung anak ko yung mga upuan kahapon hehehe...nice to meet you, finally, sir.

See you next EB!

[juanarodriguez]

sir, question lang. pwede kaya magpa-evaluate sa ibang tyt branch kahit di ka sa kanila bumili. tapos doon na lang i-claim. nalalayuan kasi me sa TIA and sobrang bad feedbacks na sila sakin.

Yap pwede. I bought my vanzie at TYT PT pero I got my replacement battery sa TYT Balintawak basta dala mo lang lagi ang warranty card mo and other docs.

goodluck po.

helo guys!
can i just ask again?ive so many concerns(im still into the process of deciding w/c to buy,before ive decided innova,then kia carens)but then,i just want to clarify on things before i'd make my final descision(since 3 silang pinagpipilian ko)(financial concern din kasi i'm up to toyota's 0%)

Noong bibili ng ako ng sasakyan, alam ko na very limited lang ang budget ko. OK na ako sa Vios na J at that time. Alam ko kais na more than 95% of the time 1 to 2 lang ang sakay. Pero that small percentage is fot my family kung gustong mag out of town, malling, etc. Ng nakita ko ang APV, puwede na rin kadit na walang 2nd row aircon (entry level lang ang kukunin kasi), then lumabas ang Avanza, I made a comparison. Nagulat ako sa power ng 1.3L na makina nito. sama lang halos sa 1.6L na APV. then there is the FC. Avanza na ako.

Take a look at your budget, then the purpose of the vehicle then make a decision from there. Good luck.

• are there any problem so far sa avanza a/t regarding it being a 1.5, low power daw kasi,pano pag me karga?di po ba nagkakaproblema sa aircon?
  

• THe Avanza 1.3 has enough power for it's size and kung loaded. What more ang 1.5
  
  

• more on city driving lang ako,mas ok ba avanza a/t kesa sa innova a/t(before kasi manual ang balak ko,now its a/t na)

Sorry to hear that.

Any way, ilan areas ang may damage? Kung isa lang, possible na mas mura kung sa labas ipapagawa. Pero kung mga 3 or more, better use the insurance.

BTW, free na man ang pag kuha ng quotation sa body repair sa Toyota. It may be possible na palitan ang buong bumper lalo na pag napunit.

isa lng area ang tama. ang masakit pa ni2, kapapalit ko lng ng front bumper. ung unang incident naputol lng ung clip, walang dent or whatsoever. ngaun ung grabe.

Sa casa kasi ay per panel ang gawa nila. ang buong bumper ay 1 panel. Check mo rin pala kung may ibang areas sa loob ng bumper nag may tama.

Kung bumper lang ang damage at walang punit, puwede naman maibalik iyan at ma re-paint. malamang mas mura nga sa labas.

*jem's99,

Saan po kay nag papa PDR sa Sta Rosa? Puwede rin ba sa kinila magpa repait sa mga light scratches? TIA.

[juanarodriguez]

* maureen

Hi Maureen, I got a G A/T also. re low power. OK naman siya pinakamarami naisakay ay 9 inc. driver at di naman hirap si vanzie. sa aircon naman around lunch time or kasikatan ng araw medyo ramdam yung init pag fully loaded but kung 4-6passengers lang ok lang siya. Nissan daw ang may pinaka-magandang aircon.

re. city driving....Our first choice was Innova J too primarily bec we are "biggies" in terms of body size. However, after my driving lessons using a manual car laking ginhawa pag-A/T w/o compromising yung need namin for space. Mas ok FC niya pag long driving. Nasubukan ko sya I drive Balintawak to 8waves Bulacan back n forth I only used up dun sa 1st na guhit from full tank.

re. brakes. as a first time driver I strictly observe yung rule na one car distance from the car sa front when driving. malayo pa lang I reduce my speed na if tingin ko nag slow down yung car sa front ko...I also look as far as the 3rd car in front of me para hindi ako magagahol sa brake... pag traffic naman OK din siya-i just let the car glide or very lightly step on gas. My uncle drives my vanzie often at marami na sya na drive na car accdg to him ok naman yung brakes ni Vanzie. Ngayon pag alanganin ako i-set ko gear to lower setting...ibang usapan na if you are going to use vanzie for drifting or racing!!!

goodluck!

Sometimes pag nagmamadali, ako yung driver na ayaw mag pasingit especially mga taxi, jeepney, and bus. Di ko pinasisingit yan so ang distance ko with car
in front of me is extremely short (gabuhok ika nga), so kung delayed ang brake ng avanza it's impossible for me to do that. Di kaya ang tuhod nya ang delayed?

[juanarodriguez]

* Spongee and Shadow .... btw, i checked at SM Manila this morning 480 pa rin daw po sa kanila ung modulator. di ko sure kelan ako makakapunta SM Manila eh.

*shadow.....hmmmmpppp wag kang didikit kay Vanzie ko ha at baka masigawan kita dyan.....pasaway.

oo nga pala sabi ng anak ko mukha ka daw loko....sabi ko loko talaga hindi lang mukha! peace bro.

musta na po kayo? heto me nasa ME pa din...
