Toyota Avanza Owners & Discussions [ARCHIVED]

[userfriendly]

May J model naka display sa TQA converted to autogas. They removed the 3rd row. They used a SGI kit from Macro (toyota authorized converter) Medyo pricey kasi casa, 65,000 IIRC.

I will convert my G to autogas, ipon lang muna.

Re. Dual aircon. For me, sayang naman ang dumadaloy na freon sa 2nd row aircon. So laging naka set ito sa 1. Is it better or not? Ewan. di ko pa kasi na experiment kung ano ang effect sa FC.

Re. LPG. Puwedeng puwede lalo na dahil sa EFI ang makina natin. May oxygen sensor pa. iyon lang nga IMHO, the best location for the LPG tank ay sa ilalim, sa pwesto ng spare na gulong. Toroid tank. Spare tire? I think a thing donut tire will suffice. Iyon lang nga sa loob ilalagay (puwede rin siguro sa roof rack)

Re new threads. Kung expected na hahaba ang discussion, maganda na gumawa ng new thread dito. Paki lagyan lang ng Avanza ang discriptive title.

TIA.

Di ako naka log kahapon 2 pages kaagad. :D

no sure po if this is the right thread for this Q.. baka pwede po makahingi ng opinion nyo re:

http://www.suzuki.com.ph/photo_apv.htm . ~765KPhp

VS http://www.toyota.com.ph/cars/new_ca.../pricelist.asp ~813Kphp ???

ano po ba yung mas ok? performance, safety, efficiency. etc...

thanks po

Thank you po sa lahat ng contributors ng avanza forum, very helpful. Congratulations!


Last week, I had to jumpstart my Avanza G after not using it for 5 days. Yesterday, pinatulak ko nanaman po para makauwi from office. Looks like my battery is busted. Mukhang nag chcharge nman ang alternator kc nawawala nman yung battery lamp indicator kapag nka start na. Nevertheless, dalin ko sa Toyota Pasong Tamo sa monday para ma-check ang electrical. Sakto nman 15Km Chang oil na din.

Has anyone here experienced this? Or is this an isolated Avanza issue?

Baka may advice din kayo mga guru...I'm all ears.

Cheers!

Baka po wala pang 1 yr yung avanza nyo pwede pang ipa-warranty yung battery

Fellow ACP members,

Let us brace for Typhoon Frank. Mukhang dadaanan ang Metro Manila.

Sa forecast dadaanan na naman ng Pangasinan. Mararamdaman din dito sa Baguio and Ilocos Region.

Ingat and be safe always....

Kayo din dyan...ingat din kayo..ramdam na ramdam na dito sa metro manila at marami na ang lugar na halos walang kuryente

SIr Jaspi11,

tanggap ko na ang shirts and caps. Thanks.

late reply ako sa iyo kahapon..kakagising ko lang night shift sa trabaho

Suzuki APV A/T * 765K or Avanza G A/T

SIr rojie,

Napadala ko na ulit

[meledson]

hmm...

Suzuki APV A/T * 765K or Avanza G A/T

Depende sa needs mo.

Pero kung mga 5 or less ang typical na sakay, better get the avanza. you do not need the space. Avantage pa ng avanza ay ang vetter FC. lalo na sa mahal ng gas ngayon.


Pero kung kadalasan ay 8 or more, the APV is the better option. Or you can even consider an entry level Innova J.

Excellent, another bright discussion dagdag kaalaman na naman dami talaga natututunan sa thread na to... so I really have to keep my rear blower on.

Btw, may comment lang konti sa last part mo, pag front blower lang nakasindi mas less ang operation ng compressor, afaik depende sa location ng temp sensor yan, since sa front evaporator nakalagay ang sensor mas madali sya maka sense ng lamig pag front blower lang ang umaandar lalo na pag naka low ang fan setting, pag front and rear blower umaandar maghahati sila ng lamig so mas matagal mamaintain ang desired temp setting so mas magwowork ang compressor.

Kung nakalagay ang sensor sa cabin or sa rear evaporator at patay ang rear blower eh lagi umaandar compressor hanggat di nasesense ng sensor ang tamang temp. Kaya nga pinapatay ko rear blower para makatipid sa gas pero ngayon pirme ko na paandarin.... I take your advice...

sir,

ang feeler bulb o sensor ng aircon is usually located ont he return air stream of the A/C. so kung front blower lang ang uma-andar, mahihirapan niya ma-attain ang cut-off set point temperature kasi papalamigin niya ang buong cabin ng avanza. e, mag-isa lang siya gumagana at hindi tinutulungan ng second blower matagal bago niya ma-aatin ang set point. so, it means that it will take a long time for the conmpressor to work

Hindi naman po siguro at tag-ulan po ngayon...hindi katulad kapag summer siguro malamang this is very true...just an opinion

2) What things/baggage would fit at the back if the third row is positioned (seatable).

To give you an idea what would fit at the back of the third row...here's a picture of a 10" Subwoofer which fits perfectly at the back of the avanza I suggest you to visit any BLADE outlet, so you can see the actual size of this 10" V12 subs to give you an idea on the physical size, in that case you can visualize the cabin capacity for that matter.

Maiba ako, di ba bitin ang power ng sub mo? Gumagapang na ba?

Nagpalit ka na rin ba ng door speakers?

Bro, you know I almost bought this type of amplified sub pero nung unang tingin ko i doubted kung kakasya. Malaki kasi e. Well kasya pala Ayos yan pang SQL.

Ahh ok, pero nag experiment na ku dati sa van ko dual aircon sya, pag pinaandar ko likod matagal naka on compressor pero pag pinatay ko likod harap lang, patay sindi na sya....kaya pinapatay ko likod pag mag-isa lang para makatipid sa gas

Anyway try ko mag experiment uli sa Avanza baka magkaiba sila...

[Islaw*Palitaw]

Maiba ako, di ba bitin ang power ng sub mo? Gumagapang na ba?

Oo, gumagapang na kasi nadridrive ng maige ng stock HU ng G variant yung 10" V12 Amplified Sub kasi my active cross-over na sya at may sub-out level adjustment na din yung stock HU from -15 to + 15, hiwalay pa yung built-in cross-over at amplifier level adjustment sa V12 Sub kaya matitimpla mo ng maige yung low bass cut-over freq vs. amplification. Kaya ngayon nalaman ko tuloy kung anong interior parts ng Avanza G ang kailangan higpitan at lagyan ng additional insulation materials para di mag-vibrate kasi sa level pa lang ng HU (0 level and Volume 18), nagvivibrate na mga parts na maluluwag ng Avanza...

Nagpalit ka na rin ba ng door speakers?

Yang ang susunod ko na project, kaya lang as usual mahirap mag-justify sa senado ng budget especially na fully working naman ang papalitan mo na parts...Hehehehe.

Bro, you know I almost bought this type of amplified sub pero nung unang tingin ko i doubted kung kakasya. Malaki kasi e. Well kasya pala Ayos yan pang SQL.

Ako nga din nun akala ko hindi kasya, kaya I opted to choose the smaller version (8" V12 Active Sub), but when i asked the installer to fit both the 10" and 8" before paying for them, kasyang-kasya pala yung 10" walang ka-alog alog para talagang sinukat para sa avanza kaya yung na lang ang kinuha ko...

[meledson]

^^^ sa senado din ang problem ko para magkaroon ng sub.

[shadow3616931]

*Islaw: Magkano iskor mo built in na ba amp? Detachable ba sya in case dami ka karga?

[woohoo]

My take on this is: Since cold air travels DOWNWARD and hot air goes UPWARDS, and not LATERALLY (going from front to back of cabin) and since selyado naman ang cabin natin, parang yung bandang harap lang talaga ang pinalalamig ng aircon... nakaharang pa ang katawan natin at ang mga front seats, so...

My 2 cents...
