Toyota D4D engine woes

[beebs]

I'll be getting my 4x2 2.5D4d fortuner hopefully in a few weeks time and i'm really bothered by some comments of our fellow tsikoteers re problems with their d4ds, the so-called "choking" problem. it's quite odd for a new engine to experience irregularities. i'm afraid if a lot of d4d owners will soon experience this engine trouble then toyota might recall these vehicles. just want to hear your comments. thanks.

i think kung may issue man it's the diesel quality not the engine

yeah, i think so, too. Remember, a 2.0l D4D was already fitted on the '03 RAV4 (although not released here in Phils) and if the D4D technology package is faulty, they've probably corrected it already.... I bet more on fuel quality.

+1 on theveed's comments.

CRDis...while better than the regular diesel engines, need cleaner diesel because of how they work. pansin din ng mom ko, most of the CRDi troopers she sees here belch quite badly compared to our 4m40-equipped pajero.

bad fuel quality talaga, not actually the D4D engine itself.

[beebs]

thanks for the comments. siguro di na lang ako maglalagay ng diesel additives para sigurado.

i think toyota anticipated the problem and have already installed 2 fuel filters in the d4d engines that way the engines run smoothly and hopefully trouble free.

IMHO,
The extra fuel filters are only band-aid solutions. Its better if our oil companies clean their diesels.

at least toyota is doing something, fat chance the big 3 will clean up their diesel anytime soon

Diesel fuel is one factor but Toyota should know this! Im having this problem wd my Innova G diesel and my ODO reading is 5057 only. I also owned 4jx1 Trooper 65k na nagloko ang engine. Dapat kung hindi compatible ang mga engine na ito di sila dapat naglabas dito!Kung hindi pa kayo nakakabili ng D4D wag nalang kayo bumili.

Hi larshell, Did you ever put additives like biodiesel on your engine? coz so far my D4D is ok and I'm planning to put biodiesel once it gets 15K on it's ODO. My ODO reading is now 12K

My first time here to post:

Sir mazdamazda and company, may I ask, is this thread only for those papas and mamas with D4d problems? Mukhang very strict ang "CENSORSHIP" dito, as I can sense there is a war of words going on here among those protecting the vision and mission of this forum (like you, larshell, beebs, etc.) and those protecting the essence of democratic exchange of opinions (like agreyes, albert99, etc.).

My piece of advise to those who have encountered problems with their d4ds: WAG UMASA SA MGA KUMUSTAHAN AT TSISMISAN, GO AND VISIT YOUR CAR DEALERS ASAP. Do not wait for someone to tell you that you have a problem na. Sa mga walang problema sa kanilang d4d: CELEBRATE and pray hard for a better ride year-round! Refrain from insisting na ang problems ay exception at isolated lang statistically, kahit totoo yan or what.

Sa mga managers ng thread na ito: You should make this as a formal organization, like registering this with the SEC, or any government accreditation agency in order for the group to have a legal identity. Siguro the items/problems in this forum can be DOCUMENTED kasama ang mga taong involved.

(THIS MAY SOUND OT. sorry)

Your right! If d4d is not compatible with the dirty diesel here in the Philippines they should not release that kind of engine and take extra time on their research on how to make d4d engine that is not affected with the dirty diesel. Dapat nga kesyo malinis or hindi ang diesel dapat pwede ang makina mo kasi kaya nga nagiimoprove ang technology eh. parang nung ginawa nila ang d4d di sila nagtry if pwede sya sa maruming diesel. Don't worry, sa kasunod na generation ng d4d solve na ang problem na yan, sa mga 1st generation testing point palang nila yan kung ano ang mga nagiging problema... Relax ka lang larshell baka naman ma solve pa nila ang problem mo pero with 5K ODO pa lang parang nakakapanghinyang talaga. try to change ur suking gasoline station.

Hi, would you mind giving specific symptoms of your problem? choking would mean ba na nalulunod/ palya? when? during starting or shifting? etc
