Toyota Innova Owners & Discussions [ARCHIVED]

[Mile2]

I have seen the post of the rear of the stock stereo of Innova. Indeed walang rca out. I was told that if I place a converter para may rca out sya before installing an amplifier. posible daw na yung converter will be the source of static noice...is this so? has anyone experience that already? I wasnt kasi na mag-install ng jbl amp and replace the front speakers with jbl separates, without subwoofer muna. Will I be doing it right?

It would be better to have it done by a pro, usually shops that do sound setup have installers that knows how to handle static noise. Better to pay a little than messing the system if you miss out something.

From what I know, conversion will need to cut some circuit in the circuit board. Or better yet think of replacing the HU to a better and more power (PMPO) HU with USB or Video

If you don't have an RCA out, you can use a speaker to line level converter. It's relatively painless to install. That's what my cousin used to upgrade his BMW (no RCA jacks also).

hi, its my first time to post here.

My Innova have small bumps in both front sidedoors caused by my kids. We all know how thin the body of today's cars.

Can it be remedied to get back its smooth & flawless look without undergoing major repair?

[quote=Mile2;1202913]Actually, its because your compressor is always engaging more frequent when only the front A/C is on, it is trying to cool the entire cabin and your thermostat is saying that cooling is not enough and will again engage your compressor, whereas if your rear A/C is on in tandem you will actually be cooling your entire cabin faster and the lesser the compressor being engage...less engage...less engine load

Exactly!!

Is this kind of converter readily connect sa amplifier?

problem resolved! car perfume causes the bad odor in the A/C system.

Nabutasan na ko ng gas tank, pinasok ko sa insurance and paid only the participation.

Right now I have a fabricated cage for my gas tank, kahit bato o sumayad man di tatamaan ang gas tank ko

hi, would you happen to have a photo of your cage? might consider having one as well. thanks.

Hi Bro, medyo mahirap kuhanan ng picture without lifting the car via lifter.

Anyway, it was done at a local welding shop near my house, the welder and I collaborated on the design and materials to use. Most of the materials used was from a nearby junk shop and what I only bought as new material was the round bars that was use for the frame and anchor points. What is important point to consider in the design is that the cage should not be touching the tank body and the clearance is 1-2 inches away and the anchor points should be easily accessible and separate from the gas tank strap support bolts.

pls. help me. nabangga ng stupid brother ko innova "06 namin sa gate namin becoz of the crampness of our garage e medyo nabasag or more exactly nagka-crack na parang spiderwebs yung right tail lights (or back lights?, yung nag-indicate ng pag brake). magkano kaya to pag pinapalitan,?kahit po rough estimate lang, para magka-idea lang po kami.

I'm from Cebu and for the first time may E10 dito sa amin sa shell station malapit sa amin. I tried to read the threads on using E10 on their cars but have not read an owner of an Innova using E10.

May nag-use ba dito ng E10? Anong advantages and disadvantages nya with our Innova? Ilang RON ang E10? Fuel economy wise, maganda ba?

Mga Php3400 ang isang assembly (with bulbs na yon). Sa Toyorama sa Banawe, they sell original Toyota parts at lower prices than casa. I replaced my left side tailights pero sa casa ko na kinuha kasi I have a discount card kaya parehas na lang ng presyo sa toyorama.

I used E10 with my Innova. Maganda, matipid. I stopped measuring fuel economy as it does not vary much.

umiilaw ilaw siya once in a while pag malapit na sa empty mark, pag sa empty na hindi na namamatay yung low fuel warning light

Are the AC panel (not the knobs) replaceable? Where can I get them?

thanks

Probably what you meant was the stick on center console wood panel finish?

You can get it from your dealer or any other shops in Banawe like C3 4x4, or in Malls you can try ACE or Blade.

Pare its better to go to toyota casa and see for your self the innova 2009 version and ask the sales representative regarding sa ang mga details and differences between the E and G variants.

By the way, mine is a 2008 G variant and got it December of that year. There are actually several differences between the E and G variant, and for me, the features of the G variant (hindi nga lang leather and seat cover nya) justifies the price difference between G and E variants...Hope I was able to help you on this....
