Di kaya heavyweight yung driver? . Kidding aside, shock abs issues has been discussed here earlier, but if you don't want to backtrack, here are some helpful info about it

I had mine (front pair only) replaced at TAI few weeks back. It was no longer under warranty, but I insisted that it was, when they evaluated it last year, unfortunately the part wasn't available then, until I called them to have it replaced for free. To make the story short, my warranty appeal letter was approved and there it was, it's as good as new. In your case, di ko na experience yung list, meaning heeling on either side but rattles on potholes, matagtag na sya sobra at sa shock housing visible na yung oil leak around it. I reckon that your ride might be having problems with any underchassis suspensions. Shocks could be one. I would suggest you have to bring it to the casa while it is still under warranty.

yup!!! gensan ang hometown!!! meron akong nakausap last wednesday, 2005 innova G owner, d4d, green mica, nag usap kami, and then i asked him na kumusta po ang ride niyo sir? na-experience niyo po ba na nag choke or hard starting sa umaga ride niyo??? sinagot niya ako na wala naman daw' at ang gamit niya daw na oil eh mobil 1 daw!!! kaya sa 5k pms ko, mobil 1 na gagamitin ko. pakiusapan ko lang ang casa!!!

Pareho tayo ng iniisip, Mag 8,000 km na ang ride ko and at 1OKkm PMS, I'm planning to use an OEM oil na I know is being supplied by Mobil. I already made an inquiry sa dealer na binilhan ko and they said na puede mavoid warranty ko pero I will argue my case. Nowhere in the manual does it say na TOYOTA OIL lang ang puede gamitin. Kailangan lang it is within spec. I work for a company who represent a world leading engine and equipment manufacturer. The core product is Industrial Engine and our product never requires use of the oil being supplied by our principal. So long as it is within spec, no problem with the warranty.

TMI charge P1050 for 10K PMS labor plus parts (Oil, Oil filter, Spark Plugs, brake cleaners) P1398, that was April 2007.

sorry, i was quoted P1820 for 10K PMS labor - tune-up, change oil/oil filter, clean/inspect/adjust all brakes, tighten all body bolts and nuts.

thanks Mile2

same here... my odometer reading is 8,530km. and is nearing the 10K PMS... FYI, Tyt Otis allows bringing in of oil other than theirs... they also carry Mobil 1.

Toyota San Fernando Pampanga sabi ni erpats. Casa attempted to replace shocks and springs. Did not do the trick. Still under "assessment", or whatever they call it:D...jeez, what else is there to assess?! Anyway, the company will eventually settle it since it's a company car...

Fellow innova peeps,

After reading your problems regarding the issue above, i got curious and check my innova too..... OMG , my front driver side is really lower!!!!

Sabi ng resident mechanic ng office, could be the torsion bar, uneven yung adjustment... and since most of the time ako lang yung sakay ( I'm about 265lbs ) kaya ganun

Please advise

Gud day, I know that mobil 1 is a fully synthetic oil, ask ko lang kung what change oil interval will you follow then. Every 5k kilo or every 10k kilo with changing of oil filter lang and add some oil when u reached the first 5k. Heavy kc sa pocket kung mag fully synthetic kc and perform a change oil every 5,000 km intervals. My unit is a D4D din.

,,,hi''' sa next 5k pms pa lang ako gagamit ng mobil 1, i think every 10kms ang change oil ng fully synthetic oil, sa oil filter di ko sigurado kung papalitan, according to my church friend na naka innova d4d, depende raw, kase ang sa kanya, everytime daw na i_check niya ang oil, at iba na ang viscosity( i mean di na siguro malapot) kahit na di daw umabot ng 10k kms, eh nagpapalit na siya ng oil. (phil am life agent kase) kaya takbo dito takbo doon ang innova niya!!! innova niya kase na test drive ko kaya isa yan sa mga dahilan kung bakit naka innova d4d ako ngaun,hehehe!!!
sensya na!!! napa_kwento na naman..!!!

I used my Innova J gas for more than 65,000 kms. before I sold it. From my first PMS, I only used the fully synthetic oil of Toyota. I changed oil every 10,000 kms. And, I hadn't encountered any problem with it.

That's interesting! Me and my dad both weigh 200lbs and 230lbs respectively (I think:D)...but we checked the clearance when we were both off the car...

Ma'am Liv, sa Toyota Shaw Ortigas din eh allowed. Gawin kong justification ito sa Marikina.

I'm on Toyota Full Synthetic oil since my 5000km PMS but I have no plans of extending usage for 10000km. Medyo maitim na kasi, considering the oil is very light in color when freshly filled up. Somebody in this thread or on another thread (I can't even remember correctly if it was a Toyota car owner's thread) that they use Synthetic oil for up to 7000km only and for me, it is a good practice not to stretch the recommended life of the oil. I computed a change oil interval of every 5000km (or less) using mineral oil and mas mura ng konti kapag tinanggal mo yung mga labor and miscellaneous charges ng toyota. I am planning to do this and monitor the immediate effect on the engine performance if I could. I know one person who extends the use of his mineral oil up to 10000km. For me, this is not a good practice, moreso kung diesel ang engine.
