Toyota Innova Owners & Discussions [ARCHIVED]

A Innova lemon perhaps?

[smooth]

Gusto ko rin magpakabit ng rear mirror..hehe do you have a pic on what it looks like? =)

sorry no pic (although in hindsight dapat ata kinunan ko ng pic). maganda yung nasa karplus e yun nga lang hindi mukhang brand new kaya nagdalawang isip ako

well, ang remedyo ko na lang e eto: gina-guide ako ng maid kapag nagba-back-up from the parking onto the street. mas mura and no drilling involved heheh. yung gasgas sa bumper nakuha sa buffing kaya nawala na init ng ulo ni misis

re: drilling holes and rust, yup you're right, pero the way i look at it, by the time kalawangin na ang sasakyan, siguro naman panahon na yun para pahilamusan siya. by that time, malamang mas marami nang problema ang katawan ng sasakyan instead of just the holes on the tailgate (FYI: family driver kasi ang nagmamaneho ng innova - absent lang siya kahapon kaya ako ang naghatid kay misis sa trabaho)

hey guys, how much yun insurance ninyo sa bnew units? i got 26k from toyota q. ave is that ok? its insurance for a diesel g a/t

dito sa toyota cavite, wala daw discount for the innova units? how about yours?

Wow, that's seems to be a bargain!

Like in Toyota Ortigas, the Innova G DSL A/T is insured for a huge sum of 41,125.97 based on their pricelist last June 2005. The "J" Gas is 29,645.93, still more expensive than the quoted rate you got from Quezon Ave. for the diesel "G" A/t.

pag city driving, yng innova G 2.5 Dsl M/T nasa 7.5 to 8.0 kms per liter ...
yng hilander xtrm M/T ko 9.0 to 10.0 kpL..
both from home to office, same route (QC to makati & vice versa), same roads, same stop lights.

highway driving naman sa innova, i got 14.0 kpL (based on multi-info display) from balintawak to san fernando exit. nung umikot kami ng subic then back to manila, naging 12.0 kpL na lng (di ka kc pwede magpabilis sa loob ng subic). also max speed ko sa NLEX that time was 80 kph lang (dahil below 1st 1,000 kms pa lng cya). 5 passengers with baggage, folded yng 3rd row seats.

pag highway driving sa hilander, umaabot ako ng 14 to 16 kms per liter (manila to muñoz, nueva ecija roundtrip). max speed is 110 kph. (5 persons with baggage, folded yng 2 bench seats sa likod)

di ko pa talaga ma-compare both rides kc break-in pa lng yng innova, tapos yng highlander ko naka mobil1 0w-40 supersyn, ibang iba talaga ang hatak pag naka fully synthetic!

masasabi ko lng 'long throw' yng clutch ng innova ... ang haba ng travel nya from 'released' to 'fully depressed' compared sa highlander na parang kotse yng travel ng clutch pedal.

on handling, parang kotse ang innova, pero medyo bouncy. wag mo na tanungin kng ano naman sa hilander. lam mo na yun. hehehe

next post ko fuel consumption naman after the 1,000 kms check-up, saka 3 rides na ico-compare ko head-to-head ... hehehe

BAD NEWS
LTO to suspend registration of cars with CFC air cons
beginning 2006
Posted Monday, 04 July 2005


The Land Transportation Office (LTO) will not register vehicles manufactured from 1999 to the present if these have air conditioning systems using chlorofluorocarbons (CFC) starting next year.

Authorities consider CFC or ‘freon’ an ozone-depleting substance because, they said, each chlorine atom which breaks off from this compound when already in the stratosphere destroys up to 100,000 ozone molecules which form the ozone layer.

This layer blocks the sun’s ultraviolet rays from reaching the earth, preventing bad environmental and health consequences.

“These are among measures we will undertake to ensure phase-out in the country of CFC by 2010,” explained Elvira Pausing, head of the National CFC Phase-out Plan (NCPP) Project Management Unit under the Philippine Ozone Desk of the Department of Environment and Natural Resources Environmental Management Bureau (DENR-EMB).

NCPP is a strategy involving policy and regulatory interventions, investment and non-investment activities as well as technical assistance, to eliminate CFC consumption nationwide.

Pausing noted this move is in line with the Montreal Protocol’s objective of curbing the damage CFC is wrecking on the ozone layer.

“So vehicle owners must switch to air conditioning system using hydrofluorocarbon (HFC) instead for LTO to register their vehicles,” she said, noting this alternative component does not destroy the ozone layer.

Pausing said EMB and LTO are linking to promote HFC-based aircon systems because even if vehicle manufacturers already switched to this substance as early as 1994, many vehicle owners chose to convert their mobile aircon systems to CFC-based ones.

“This is mainly because CFC material service shops use when repairing such systems is over three times cheaper than HFC,” she explained.

Pausing added the DENR’s chemical control order already disallows such back conversion so vehicle owners should use HFC-based aircon systems by having their vehicles retrofitted in service shops.

By 2010, however, LTO shall already begin imposing fines on vehicles owners still using CFC for their mobile aircon, she said.

Pausing clarified, however, vehicles manufactured before 1999 shall still be accepted for registration until a designated period between 2012 and 2016.

“Afterwards, vehicles owners shall also have to comply with the HFC-only aircon requirement,” she said.

Authorities are looking forward to compliance of the Philippines to the Montreal Protocol’s total CFC phase-out schedule in 2010.

Pausing said the country already complied last year with the 50-percent reduction target for 2005.

ano pong mga car ang naka cfc

[busy road]

ano pong mga car ang naka cfc

I remember before I left, our Innovas are equipped with chlorofluorocarbons (CFC) aircon. If this is the case, there will be a need to replace or retrofit our compressors system that will be compatible with hydrofluorocarbon (HFC).

[nugundam93]

aren't almost all cars sold after 2000 non-cfcs already?

Try to negotiate it down to P20K. Tell them that you could get an insurance for about P20K, then you could settle halfway at P22.5K.

RE: the LTO, CFC and HFC

Look at it this way, if a '95 Honda Civic comes with a HFC a/c system, why shouldn't a new Innova come with one? HFC has gone mainstream a long time already. It would be a surprise if Toyota still passed CFC under the hood of its new models.

AFAIK, all innovas now uses R-134A.. check the label besides the front hood lock near radiator... mine is R-134A na..

WBR,

Yes, R-134A complies with our environment act. Bro, I don't remember where I found the CFC label or sticker. Can you check yours? I remember it is located in the upper side of the windshield. Hoping I was wrong with my observation. At least nakahinga ng kaunti.

[Innova_Boy]

The label of mine is beside the radiator near the front hood locking ledge..

[strayWOLF]

*straywolf,

WBR,

I use Petron diesel * aurora blvd near balete drive...

[Innova_Boy]

Thanks for posting... just do keep us updated on your Innovas...

WBR,
