Toyota Avanza Owners & Discussions [continued]

May lamat na siempre dapat palitan bago pa tuluyan maghiwalay at madamage ulit ang newly replaced support.

[lady_fox2009]

A couple of days ago, I had our 2007 Avanza 1.5 GL AT checked out due to a knocking problem near or at the engine. My mechanic at Kitanlad (near Banawe) found that the Transmission support was already destroyed and meron na daw lamat yung right hand (RH) side na Engine support. He also found an oil leak at the Flywheel oil seal (at rear of engine daw). Due to the lack of time, only the Transmission support and Flywheel oil seal were replaced (with original parts c/o Toyorama).

7 PM na ako umalis doon because coding yung car and when I finally left, I found out na hindi gumagana ang speedometer and the car wouldn't change gear (upshift). The following morning, this was promptly diagnosed as a faulty Speed sensor, as in naputol/nabiyak siya. Sensing that my mechanic and his boys were somehow responsible for this, I asked them to remedy the problem, which they eventually did by soldering wires to the 3 connectors to maintain the continuity (see pictures).

Tanong ko lang po sa inyo:

1. Do I need to have the Speed sensor replaced by a new one?
Note: Wala naman akong napansin na problema with the said part for now, pero baka naman magluko in the future. As per Toyorama, original part lang ito and order basis pa, around P7K. As for surplus, meron daw mahahanap yung mechanic ko, baka daw mga P2,500.00.

2. Do I still need to have the RH Engine support replaced:
2.1 With original part for just the RH side, around P3K; plus labor, P???
2.2 Or with replacement part for both sides na, P700 x 2; plus labor, P???
Note: I noticed the disappearance of the knocking sound, but as per my mechanic meron nang lamat yung RH Engine support.

Sana po ay matulungan ninyo ako at mabigyang linaw ang aking pinuproblema.

Thanks po, Maam lady_fox2009

Nag "Join" na po ako kanina, pero "Pending" pa po ang status ko sa FB Page ng Avanza Club Pilipinas...

Also, to update everyone, I had the Engine supports (both LH & RH) replaced this afternoon, pero replacement parts lang. Total cost ko for this was P2,400.00 incl. labor. Yung original parts kasi is P6K for both LH & RH sa Toyorama, plus P1.2K for labor so almost P5K ang natipid ko.

Yung Speed sensor naman ay pinag-iisipan ko pa kung anong gagawin. Mahal kasi ang original part (around P7K yata at Toyorama), pero mahirap naman makakita ng surplus for 1.5 GL AT model.

my first question would be, "is it safe for an avanza to pull a considerable load? does it have a tow capacity at all? it seems... so light...!
i ask because i know not the answer.

I think its safe. Basta within its capacity.

i did a quick google. a dealer in sough africa says the avanza has a 500 kg towing capacity (unbraked trailer).

Thanks. OK na ang 500kg madami ng pwedeng hilahin.

Meron ba sa pinas na available hitch bar? Search ako pero puro hilux at mga SUV nakikita ko.

i haven't seen an avanza pulling anything besides smoke.. heh heh.
you will probably have to look for someone who custom-makes them.
many years ago, i came across this guy who did make custom-make hitch bars... taga-bulacan... forgot the details. sorry.

but i can imagine.. it might be "difficult" to open the rear hatch, if the avanza were hitched to something...

Sir Ask ko lang kung worth it ba mag add ng 100k for the Avanza 2016 1.5G variant

or okay na rin ung Avanza 2016 1.3E variant. Mainly city driving lang ang purpose and balak dalhin sa baguio rin ocassionally.

Thanks

Sa akin is 2009 1.5G pero worth naman ang idadagdag mong 100k kung sa power lang at kung for keeps na avanza mo.

Compare ko ang 1.3 sa 1.5 Malaki ang difference sa power at syempre iba ang G sa E kung baga why settle for less if you can afford naman. Unless if you are considering the budget you have to think very wisely and do the side by side checklist.

You need to get an SD card to activate the navigation feature. Curious lang ako, kumusta ang konsumo ng 1.5 at with dual vvt? Di naman ba bitin sa paahon?
