This is my 1 1/2 year old Innova, pictures taken today.
Body detailing by Nu Finish synthetic wax and Nu Finish Scratch Doctor (for minor swirls). 1 1/2 year parked on the street rain or shine. (10 year old Lancer EX at the background parked inside the garage)
Kulang sa shine depth ang Nu Finish, pero okay lang sa akin kasi kahit tubig lang ang panlinis ko balik kintab uli siya, at di rin kumakapit ang dumi kahit yung asphalt tar.
Buti na lang walang nanga-gasgaskaso nanakawan naman ako ng side mirror dyan

Di ko pa nakita ang location ng ECU, but defitely wala sa engine bay. It would probably under the dashboard on the steering wheel side.
My innova.
Hanap pa ako ng bagong tire specs and brand... your recommendations. thanks!

Yung mags mo 16 or 15 ba yan?
In my view puede pa dyan ang 65 series, medyo akward yung tires mo sa laki ng wheel well.
lampas three years na unit namin (Gas / matic) at iniisip na sa labas na lang magpa-maintain kasi mahal sa casa (35k maintenance ko inabot ng 11k sa toyota balintawak north). baka naman po may kilala kayo na mahusay, knowledgeable sa innova at mapagkakatiwalaan na mekaniko na pwedeng puntahan sa mga panahon na kailangan mag-change oil at iba pang tune up? salamat po mga kapatid.
Good day to all........
Mukhang dumadami ang innova owners. You might want to consider joining the Club for Innova Owners. You can check the thread at Car Club Forums - Innova Club of the Philippines dito rin sa tsikot.com
There's a monthly schedule of EB's every last Saturday of the month. We had our EB last Saturday April 26 at Fort Bonifacio, Taguig. The next EB will be on May 31. Hope you guys can join.
Thanks
Q on the AC:
Do you open overhead AC when you have no passengers? I remember lang my sis-in-law (who had a revo) that cause of her AC breakdown was she did not open the overhead AC when she had no passengers and that the dash AC was overworked cause it had to cool the whole area.... any inputs/experience on this...
Also, how long does it take for your overhead AC to cool up? Mine takes a few minutes....
*Bughaw, I usually turn-on the overhead A/C during daytime specially lunchtime na sobrang init unless nakalimutan kong buksan pero during the night naka turn-off lang sya.
sa akin pag me sakay lang sa likod nabubuksan, minsan hindi pa... pansin ko kasi lakas sa gas pag bukas lagi eh...![]()
Theoretically, it can be a cause of a breakdown on an AC compressor to let the cooling come out of the dash only. All AC's have thermostats, that is, when you reached the set level of cooling, mag o off ang compressor mo.
With passenger loaded, it would take a bit more time to cool the whole area than without, if you have all the overhead grills open.
Now, imagine cooling the whole car area, loaded with passengers and you have only the dash to cool off. Am sure bibigay compressor mo.![]()
i do turn it on even without passengers... it has become a practice of mine even when we still had our revo... i remember talking to an aircon technician before and his explanation is that vehicles with overhead aircon need to be switched on always to prevent expansion bulb clogging.
