Toyota Innova Owners & Discussions [ARCHIVED]

[huangyenhao]

usually they concentrate only the status of your car under the hood like coolant level,brake fluid level, change oil and oil filters but you can ask for more checks if you found something unusual sa ride mo have it inform them and fixed labor is free...normal pms will cost you 1.5-2k (change oil/filter)...

Hi,

i've just got my new innova g a/t gas few weeks ago,
i would like to ask for ur opinions,
should i use fully synthetic oil for my first 1000km check up?
i went to ace hardware yesterday to check the price of Mobil super synthetic 10w/40, which is abount 470pesos / L.
i know that is good engine oil but im wondering if it's a wise choice.
470pesos x 7 liter, i need to spend P3290 for the check up and another P3290 for 5000km check up, unlike 1.5k~2k in casa.

my concerns are all about engine performance and fuel efficiency,
if the fuel efficiency performs better using fully synthetic oil,
i would choose mobil 10w/40.
but if the oil provided by casa is ok and satisfied, i may not spend more for that.

if u were me, how would u choose between the 2 ?

huangyenhao, congrats on new ride. You'll enjoy it.

I started using fully synthetic oil (Toyota) on my first 1K km. I don't know though if using fully syntheic oil would contribute to the fuel efficiency.

dont think using full synthetic oil on the 1st 1k km check up is practical because you should still change the oil on the 5k km pms. sayang lang considering the high price of fully synthetic oil. Casa, in fact, advise using fully synthetic oil around 20k pms because then you can have the next change oil after the next 10k instead of the usual every 5k

using synthetic oil will not guarantee of more millage or better fuel effeciency... lesser noise, lesser vibration,run smoother and more confident on your ride is the advantage of using synthetic oil. yong peace of mind ay mataas ika nga...the oil provided in casa of course you will be satisfied, the use of synthetic oil for 1k PMS is actually not recommended by casa it is the owner choice who loves most on thier ride...if you are in tight budget at the moment i would suggest you skip your synthetic oil on your next PMS...to me the ideal time to use synthetic oil is on 10k PMS though i use it earlier i will still use synthetic oil on my next oil change (7.5k)...

hmmm.. what if i forgot about the 1000km check up? i got the Black 2.0 G Gas last month and was so satisfied about the ride making me forget the 1000km mark.. meter reads at 1700km already.. will that have some effect on the engine ? it will cost 1,500 to 2,000 pesos for the change oil and everything sa casa? or labor pa lang yun?

Based on what my agent said. Ina-allow po ng Toyota na hanggang 2,000km yung 1st PMS ng Innova. I paid around 1,500 (can't remember the exact amount) for the mineral oil and filter for my 1,000km PMS. The labor is free.

Thks bro. Mas preferred ko sana kung maggaling sa club natin para I would know kung kanino galing and I feel more confident. Might have a problem lalo na kung galing sa mga banaue stores.
