Toyota Innova E or J?

[homhomnova]

Yeah, bad experiences. Gamit ko Innova ng pinsan ko. Weak, stalling engine, weak mushy brakes, maingay pa. Isang beses nagovertake ako sa 2 lane highway, biglang nag engine stall, delekado yan!! Nahihirapan itong kotse umakyat ng ramp, kahit na ako lang sa loob. Bad interior quality, although malambot naman yung suspension. Insufficient power, punch only kicks in 3000-4000 RPM. Diesel engine dapat 1800 RPM may power na. Kahit na gasoline engines mas malakas eh. Para itong carbureted 'tong diesel.

kakaiba naman ito.. naki gamit lang pala ng Innova sa pinsan tapos nilahat na..

Bakit ganyan innova ng pinsan
ang ganda nga performance innova ko eh
naka abot nga ng 140k kms and ganda pa takbo
downsides niya is yung LAG pagmagaccelerate ka and tumutunog yun rear door pag binubuksan

hehehe.. baka galit lang sya sa mundo..

o kaya naman.. baka yung nabili nyang kotse ay marami syang sakit sa ulo ngayon at nagsisisi sya na sana Innova na lang binili nya..

aahihi..

If you are here to personally attack other members, better not post please.

InteralCombust,

I do not think homhomnova is personally attacking you. He is just stating the obvious that because of your bad experiences with your cousin's Innova, you are biased towards it. He is also thinking that maybe, just maybe, you are having bad experiences on your own car that you made a poor decision with the car you chose instead of buying one.

I see it rather odd that of the hundreds, if not thousands, of Innova owners in this thread, you are the only one stating this very bad experience. I am very happy with my 2012 Innova J. Nice power, nice fuel consumption, good handling. And it looks good to boot.

Are you even aware of the driving habits of your cousin(assuming your cousin is a he)? Is he driving his Innova beyond its capability? Using it on rough roads very often? Loading it to its capacity almost everyday? Of his maintenance habits(regular oil changes, preventive maintenance check-ups with the CASA or a reputable auto shop?)Or he just ran his Innova to the ground and expected it to perform like brand new?

Is it just me or what you took for a drive is not a Toyota Innova but a Mitsubishi Adventure? Just sayin.

I suggest na huwag kang bumili ng Innova. Kahit na ang E model, you get less than what you payed for.

sa presyo ng Innova bang for the buck na yun. any bad experience with innova?

Care to expound why?

We have several relatives and friends who have Innova's and Fortuner's. So far I haven't heard anything bad from them in terms of owner experience. I'd say the Innova is an ideal "people's car". Engine power is more than adequate enough for the daily grind. Top end power isn't that much, but there's lots of torque down low.

I'd most definitely go for an E. ABS and rear wiper are more than enough reason to upgrade, let alone the power amenities.

Naghahanap lang ng away yan.

[dr. d]

it's common knowledge, used vehicles in "brand new condition" are seldom in "brand new condition".
kadalasan, na-simonize lang yan, nilinis ang passenger cabin, pinunasan ng grease remover ang engine and bay, at jinobos ang gulong.
kung mamalasin, pina-ikot ang odometer nang pabalik..
at nagdasal na ang buyer na pumunta ay isang noobee..

but back to E versus J...
if there's a financial problem, then J it is. otherwise, aim for E.

[crave]

Baka naman hindi properly maintained yung Innova ng pinsan niya.

Mushy brakes? Kapag gamit ko yung Innova namin from Vios/ Lancer cedia, laging akong napapasubsob dahil naninibago ako sa lakas ng brakes ng Innova.

[homhomnova]

Tell me about it, I was in sales for a few years and all I can say about SOME of the SAs I encounter is: Change careers NOW!

Tsk.



I specifically told him that sa kanila ako magpapa install. I even asked him to ask the service guys about it.

Yeah, I do remember pero wag nalang natin ilagay dito sa thread.

Teka, OEM Toyota ba ang pinakabit nyo?

sa usapan kasi namin sinabi ko may balak ako maglagay ng alarm, immobilizer, at motion sensor sa cab to trigger the alarm on top of the usual triggers.

Given that the motion sensor is some 3rd party equipment, he either should have qualified his statements which among the three will void the warranty.

Nakalimutan ko sir yung brand ng backing sensor pero yung tig 3.5k ang pinakabit ng kapatid ko.. kaso masakit sa tenga yung tunog pag umaatras.. hehehe..

[vinj]

^Toyota installed the rear parking sensor on my Altis for as a freebie back in 2012.

It really depends on the deal that was given to you. If the margin has been maxed out, then a back sensor is really not possible. These sensors that are available in CASAs are pretty expensive compared outside. These are usually provided by the dealer's third part acc. provider, The dealer (sometimes even Sales Reps, desperate moves just to maintain their quota) pay for it as well. We don't get it for free just like that.

Congrats on the new car! I do hope you'd be very satisfied with it.

Initially satisfied on it. Currently looking for additional accessories like visor, mud guard, tire lock. Any recommended shops. Sorry OT na.

Banawe. I personally go to Autospecs or Bless and I got my mudguards and door mouldings from there. Put on the Camry OEM 17 inch rims and color key the door handles and you have a nice, clean Innova.
