Toyota Innova Owners & Discussions [ARCHIVED]

4. Detached chrome door housing (Adhesive tape cost me PhP55.00 & free
labor). All four door housing were re-fixed.

black din yung orig na handle?

Binigyan din ako ng discount card na 10% which they say I can use with my 1k pms, pero sabi nung lady sa cashier na mas ok daw sa 10k pms ko nlang daw gamitin yung discount card because labor isn't free anymore once you reached 10k. Kaya hindi ko muna ginamit. =)

limited lang ang gamit ng discount card?

[meier]

nagpunta kami ng tagaytay last sunday.. kahit wala pang plate at expired na yung conduction sticker hehehe.. ang daming naka-innova dun! yung iba wala pa din plate number hehehe..

OT: ang sarap ng sizzling bulalo sa (forgot the name). sa gitna ng max and dencio's

Mga bro, paki update na lang yung missing information. Thanks...

kinorrect ko lang yung sa innova namin. white ang sa amin not red. and added M/T. some comments sa innova. (at least sa J-variant) wala palang warning light sa dash kung naiwan mong nakabukas ang pinto (or kung di masyadong sarado). dala ko kanina ang innova, went to work and then nung pauwi na ko (from work), dun ko lang napansin na di masyadong sarado ang pinto. yikes. buti na lang hind umulan kundi baka nabasa ng husto ang loob heheh

incidentally, naka-off kasi ang interior light e plus maliwanag sa parking (open air kasi) kaya di ko talaga mapapansin. kaya pala parang masyadong maingay ang tunog ng motorsiklong katabi ko kanina nung papunta ako sa trabaho heheh

[busy road]

black din yung orig na handle?

Chrome ang mga handles ng sa akin bro. I think maganda ring tingnan kung black yung mga handles mo.

[busy road]

The downside of synthetic oil is halos ka-presyo ng PMS mo. Hehehe.

What do you mean by this, bro?
Is there any significant noise reduction using synthetic oil for our innova diesel engines?

[mikey177]

A general question for Innova owners: why did you choose the gas model over the diesel model, or vice versa?

I really want to get the diesel version, but the P50,000 price difference between the gas and diesel J-variants has got me thinking about going for the gas model instead.

I really want to get the diesel version, but the P50,000 price difference between the gas and diesel J-variants has got me thinking about going for the gas model instead.

My main considerations in choosing the diesel engine (M/T) are the following:
1. Cheap fuel
2. With the same routine usage and driving habits, fuel efficient ang diesel.

[meier]

I choose Innova J gas over diesel bec.

1. P50k savings. difference ng gas and diesel nasa P2.5 - P3 na lang eh.. mileage ng gas ang diesel di na rin naman nagkakalayo sa gas - approx of 10km/L(my consumption) and diesel - approx of 14km/L. With a yearly mileage of 13000km (based sa old car namin) it would take us 5yrs bago ma-used up yung savings na P50k.

2. yung sound ng engine.. mas gusto ko tahimik.

3. I seldom go to province, cguro 6 times a year lang. last month I went to Vizcaya, kaya naman with 8 people on board.

yun lang halos.

HI, Nainip ako sa Fortuner Naisip ko Innova nalang bilin ko
G diesel a/t cheaper pa. ok ba ang a/t diesel variance?
compare to trooper medyo malapit ba ang performance ng
Transmision? ano consumption ng diesel? Thanks!

diesel has more torque than the gas one especially the A/T...

WBR,

[Innova_Boy]

Sir innova_boy,

Tanong ko lang kung meron ka contact numbers nung jonel's auto upholstery sa may
cm recto. salamat.

Jonels Seat Cover 252-1074, 252-5144, 255-4559..

Just bought the carpet type floor matting 2.5k last week... ok naman siya grey color...

I'm talking to them the price of leather seat cover same design as of monseratto fortuner pics on other thread...

WBR,

[mikey177]

Thanks for the input on your choice of engine, guys. Since I live in the province and drive on the highway almost every day, I think I'll still opt for the diesel variant. In 3 years I was able to log 80,000 km on my Sedona, so I think I'll be able to recoup the additional amount that the diesel model costs in a short span of time. Plus, I like torquey engines, great for passing those slow tricycles and what-not on McArthur Hiway

However, from bongliza's post I discovered that the Hilux J is actually cheaper than the Innova J, so now I'm really confused. Gusto ko rin sana ng mataas na sasakyan kasi hindi biro ang mga baha dito sa probinsya pag bumagyo. Decisions, decisions

[meier]

diesel nga dapat sa iyo... kung marami ka laging sakay, innova na...parang mas mataas ata yung hilux..

Go for the Diesel one kasi as Innova Boy said mas malakas ang Torque ng Diesel kaysa gas.

Trooper comparing Innova, consider these:

1. Trooper, di pa common rail engine kaya mas mausok.
2. Trooper. may dalawang friend ko after 2 years na di masyado gamit, sira na ang Injector and costing around more than 50K ang palit.
3. Base sa Isuzu Manila, parati wala silang parts.
4. Mas walang drag ang shifting ng automatic ng Innova kaysa Trooper.

I hope this will help. Peace!!!

[kimpOy]

1. the 4JX1 3.0 is CRDi already,
2. true, kcboy's trooper shares the same sentiment, actually its the philippines diesel DAW is the culprit.
3. for Trooper or any isuzu for that matter, maramng parts sa Walco sa banawe or Jayson sa Binondo
4.havent driven a A/T Trooper yet but e my 1997 Isuzu Trooper 4JG2 3.1 TDiC will kick butt of any 2.5 TDIcCRDI chuvaness out there

[hsc183]

Kimpoy, great review!!!!!

[mazdamazda]

Trooper comparing Innova, consider these:

1. Trooper, di pa common rail engine kaya mas mausok.

Trooper
160bhp * 3900rpm / 333Nm * 2000rpm

Innova
102bhp * 3600rpm / 260Nm * 2000rpm

Fortuner
163bhp * 3400rpm / 343Nm * 1400-3200rpm

Comparing the Fortuner & Trooper, hindi nagkakalayo ang non-CRDi & CRDi. No contest when you compare it with the Innova.

2. Trooper. may dalawang friend ko after 2 years na di masyado gamit, sira na ang Injector and costing around more than 50K ang palit.

Are you sure that the Innova / Fortuner / Hi-Lux won't suffer the same fate?
