toyota ws is for the newer transmissions. it is low viscosity. it is not backwards compatible with toyota type4. you need type4 equivalent. ano certification ng mobil1 atf? if it meets toyota type4 then its the one you want.

I purchase original Toyota ATF just to be sure. I hate those brand specific transmission fluid ratings nowadays. Dati it was just Dexron/Mercon.
toyota makes money by rebranding dex3 oils as typex oils.
dexron vi and mercon lv are the same. they have joint transmission developments the past decades...

Hi guys, I seem to have a problem with the fuel gauge of my 2010 Altis. When i put gas at night, the gauge is at Full but then the next morning, I start the car and the gauge is now at the 3/4 mark. There is no fuel puddle under the car and no smell of gas inside or outside the car. My car is also parked in a secure place and the car runs smoothly naman. What could be the cause of this problem? Defective gauge?
Thanks in advance!

Toyota's old 4AT is sad. Last night I was driving a 10.5G Altis AT on TPLEX and even though it has the same engine as my 11th gen (3ZR-FE, Dual VVTi, 122 hp), it doesn't have the same top speed nor acceleration.
It tops out at 185 kph because that's the fastest I could go in 3rd gear. By the time it shifts to 4th gear, it's out of the powerband already and the needle just won't creep upward unless on a downhill.
The 11th gen with a 6 speed MT does 200 kph on 5th but even after shifting to 6th it still has a bit of juice left to inch towards 205-210 on a flat road.

Good pm mga sir. Tanong lang po. Mahal ba ung maintenance ng bagong altis? Balak sana namin bumili ng altis 1.6G MT. Magakano kaya aabutin pag heavy PMS sa casa? Help mga paps. Tnx
It's quite affordable to maintain. In the CASA before my 1.6E would cost anywhere from 2K to 4K. Just review the list and remove all non-essentials the CASA tucks on such as additives, decarbon, etc. When i had the service done by my suking tindahan and buy the needed parts from Banawe, the large service stops (40,000kms) did not even cost more than 4K.
Kay Toyorama? Naalala ko tip mo sa akin before. May ms beautiful doon hehe

^Yeah, kay Toyorama.
Kaya pala bumili ka ng second hand Fortuner after ko sinabi sa yo yun.![]()
Mga sir, napansin ko kasi sa engine ng altis 2009 (76,000 milage) ko, parang mas malakas na yung vibration/shake nya while idle/naka stop, nararamdaman ko yung vibration sa manibela, naisip ko baka yung aircon lang yung, yung prang pg ngcharge pero parang hindi eh. nagbasa basa ako, sign na ba to na need na palitan yung engine mount? or ibang problem to?
Mgkano kaya yung engine mount? and kung anong possible problem kaya ng vvibrate sya while idle at ramdam sa driver side.
Thanks in advance.
Are there any alarm bells that I should be wary of in this ad?
2011 Toyota Altis 1.6V AT
I might schedule a "go-see" this weekend.
Doc, do you know the seller? When I checked her car-related ad, I only find this one car.
But actually, the real owner of the car is a guy... or that's what he claims when I inquired. He's saying that this girl is just a friend who reposted his ad (which I also saw before but seems to have been pulled out already).
Here are other ones, although these are just the "G" variant.
Toyota Altis 2011 1.6G Automatic
Toyota Corolla Altis G 2011 - Bacoor
Btw, what are the significant differences between the "V" and the "G"?

My shocks are due for replacement, any recommendation for an after market one for normal driving?

i do not know the seller from adama.
but the seller's ad goes, "...papers registered under my name...".
when i clicked the seller's name, there were other items also on sale under that name.
i guess this is an indication of what type of activity this person is involved in (i.e., someone who sells items and, i assume, derives income from the sale of items). i will also assume, that this seller knows so very little, about the car she is selling.
so yes, it is always adviseable to talk to the person whose name is on the CR and who actually drove the car.
btw... only CTPL? what happened to the compre for this 6 year old car? (EP3. does that suggest, owner did not renew the compre, because he has been trying to sell the car for the past, at least three, months?)
actually, i'm a sucker for the altis. good build quality, ease of repair and maintenance...
i'm passively looking for a used recent model myself, or a brand new one...
good luck with your adventure, po.
