Toyota Innova Owners & Discussions [ARCHIVED]

Bro, what do you mean by "reserve for tap oil"? I don't remember I used extra or reserve oil in between my regular PM. If you are referring in topping up your oil level to maximum, I think applicable iyan sa mga old engine with deteriorated piston rings. Correct me nalang kung hindi ko natumbok.

tap oil kc nilagay ng service advisor ko... anyway, you are right. I mean the oil for topping for the mAXIMUM LEVEL, Just like the one that was done during th 5K PMS. If topping is not necessary during the 5K and 10K PMS, then I won't need to buy an extra liter of oil. I'll just wait for my 10K PMS then. Thanks for the advise.

Tumbok ko na, bro. You are using synthetic oil nga pala. Meaning, complete change oil is done every 10T Km and every 5T Km ang PM. So, kailangan ng topping up to maximum after 5T Km. In my experience before, kahit na bago ang sasakyan, bumababa ang level ng oil. You can't notice this if you are frequently changing your oil regularly from 3 to 5 Km. In your case, complete change oil is being done every 10 Km. So, definitely bababa iyan and you need extra oil. In my personal opinion, pwede ng pang top up yung ordinary oil.
Any extra additional informations from our expert tsikoters?

salamat bro.. I ca then buy a liter of the oil which I intend to use on my 10K PMS [say, mobil1]. Para maski sumobra o kumulang ng kaunti ung oil, may reserve pa ako for topping...

Congratulations on your innova and welcome

alam niyo sa akin buo harap at likod, walang extra charge, I paid 3,700 only dito sa BF, they heat the tint to the shape of the glass first before installing.Again, the price will depend on the tint you have, I have Sunguard scratchproof, it is ok so far.

kuyapete, mura diyan ah!

Sir, wala pa po akong Innova. I'm still in the process of gathering information and feedback on the diesel variant, but I'll probably get one by August unless someone reports any drastic problems with the D-4D engine.

Sa tingin ko Innova di gagawin taxi, kasi most taxi operators (sa hirap ng buhay) will probably buy 2nd Hand cars or for the price, Crosswind pa rin. Mas marami isasakay na pasahero ang Crosswind and Adventure kaysa Innova. Sana naman di nila gawin taxi ang Innova, first time ko lang bili Toyota kasi sati all my rides are Honda (para walang taxi).

hirap kuha franchise kapag second hand unit buy mo, brnad new na lang accept now kapag second hand di na yata pede ikuha franchise unless pamasada na talaga nabili mo. oo nga di pede pamasada kasi kapag umupo sa 3rd row seat kapag bababa mabbwisit yung asa 2nd row kailangan din nyang bumaba

With regards sa Motor oil, if in your dipstick dropped below maximum, it is advised to fill some more to reach the maximum level para sure protection for your engine. As for me, I'm using Mobil 1 fully synthetic since 1991 on all my gasoline vehicles, while Delvac 1 fully synthetic also from Mobil para sa Diesel vehicles ko. Para parang bago ang mga sasakyan ko. When time comes to sell the vehicle, it is still in good condition. I usually start filling Mobil 1 on my 1,000km PMS. I also change my oil every 5,000km. para laging bago. If you want to have the best Engine wash of all time, go to BIG Berts sa Araneta Ave. parang galing sa Showroom ang Engine mo.

[hsc183]

For the alarms, I suggest MASPRO sa Banawe tapat ng Ha Yuan Restaurant malapit sa E. Rodriguez side, meron din sya Innova Accessories, very professional kahit maliit ang tindahan. Lahat ng alarms and accessories ko galing sa kanya. Ask for Benjie Cheng.

Guys, I think it's time to share the failures of our Innova (If there is).
So far, these are the problems I have encountered:
1. Detached plastic assembly coverings of the left seat belt. I asked them
to include the right side (Complete assembly will be replaced free of charge)
2. Busted left personal lamp (Not included in the warranty. Part will be
charged)
3. Loose left fog lamp assembly (Free labor)
4. Detached chrome door housing (Adhesive tape cost me PhP55.00 & free
labor). All four door housing were re-fixed.

All were corrected except item 1 & 2 which require parts replacement. Parts will be available in 1-month time, TSK!TSK!TSK!

After 5 Km, I rotated all tires including spare, though manual says 10T.
