    "The affected engines produced by Toyota Industries Corporation (TICO) are the 1GD, the 2GD, and the F33A. Toyota has released a list of the models equipped with these engines, but engine-code nerds would already know how wide the scope of the problem is as far as the carmaker’s model range is concerned. Potentially affected models that are sold locally are the Fortuner, the Hilux, the Innova, the Hiace, and the Land Cruiser 300."

    "“Based on the results of the investigation, TICO decided today to temporarily suspend shipments of the affected engines. Toyota has also decided to temporarily suspend shipments of vehicles equipped with the affected engines,” the statement continues. “Going forward, we will provide detailed explanations to the authorities and promptly proceed with appropriate measures, including conducting testing in the presence of witnesses if appropriate.”"

    Nothing wrong with the engines naman di ba? It's just the certification, medyo 'dinaya' lang.

    i believe so.
    perfectly use-able, but might be an issue for the "documentation-sensitive".

    I'm seeing a pattern here. Even the Daihatsu scandal is on models not sold in the US/EU. It's like Toyota is trying to cut corners in markets where they have the least exposure to being fined in the multi-billion$.

    One criteria I have for buying a car is that the same model is also sold in its parent country i.e. KDM, JDM, EuDM, USDM.
