Toyota Innova Owners & Discussions [continued 3]

Sir ask ko lang. Napansin ko lang ang lakas ng engine vibration ng innova diesel ko since nung nag euro4 ang petron is it normal?

Totoo po bang mas malakas vibration mas malakas hatak? My unit is innova V 2006 dsl.

but i agree with you..
i celebrated my car's warranty expiration, by having my oil change at the nearby gas station, at half the casa cost, no waiting, and with full visual coverage. kulang na lang na ako ang magtanggal ng drain plug..

parang eto ata talga ang right of passage hehe.. i do the same with all of my vehicles that "graduate" from warranty coverage. sometimes if I feel like it, i even do it myself.

1K and 5K PMS is change oil lang diba?

I emailed kasi to TMPH regarding Global City's policy na mag sign daw ako ng waiver voiding engine warranty if I would use my own oils, which is outrageous. Manual states to use Toyota oil OR equivalent. Wala pa reply TMPH for a few days now

Bili na lang ako genuine filter and gasket. Plan ko Rev X All Terrain na fully synthetic, may discount kasi ako dito then check oil at 5k then change filter

Possible ba na lahat ng oil and ATF changes outside casa while still retaining warranty? Itatago ko na lang lahat ng receipts, yung mga major PMS ko na lang ipapasok sa casa.

hmmmm

dinala ko (innova) sa toyota la union for its overdue 4th oil change (> 20k km mark). pagdating ko ng 9 am, andami na nakapila. ang sabi ng SA e kinabukasan ko na daw makukuha. lintek e 4-5 hours away ang bahay ko.

tinanong ko SA na kung bilhin ko na lang sa kanila yung langis at filter at ako na lang magpalit e mavovoid ba warranty. sabi hindi. basta kinuha sa kanila yung parts. kasi lalabas naman daw sa online records nila yung purchase.

pero take note yung kaso ko e labor lang ang sagot ko. toyota pa rin pyesa.

maybe iba nga ang policy sa bawat dealer.

May naka experience na ba dito na bigla na lang namatay ang battery? I brought my Innova sa casa for some body repairs. Walang problem or signs before I gave the car to them (1 click lang pag start kahit malamig ang gabi). 14 days later nung kinuha ko na sa casa, dead na ang battery. Stock battery is 14 months pa lang.

yes, it happened to me.
my theory is, the battery discharged flat while in the casa, probably because somebody used the charge, probably the radio, while the vehicle was undergoing repair.
and since battery plates fall apart much faster when they remain discharged for longer periods of time... by the time i got my car back, the battery was already in an advanced state of dying. i changed my battery within a week of getting the car from the casa.

Iyon din ang sabi ko sa kanila, maybe they turned on the radio while working on my car. Siyempre todo deny sila. Pero iyong sa akin completely drained and dead na siya. They had to jumpstart it para umandar. Now I think my alarm is fried. According to them nag reset lang daw and I have to bring it to my original dealer where I had the alarm installed para ma-reset and under warranty pa naman daw. I left the casa but I made them promise to replace my alarm should I found out that it was damaged.

That is the usual case. Turn radio and aircon to highest. Mabigla ka lang if you drive your car from the parked slot. Seats are all in the sleeping position.

hello

id just like to ask for help for some problem. i drive an 06 toyota innova and late last year, i noticed a "spraying sound" when i make a hard left and usually some liquid drips onto the mat from under the dash of the passenger side. i think it resolved on its own and didnt experience anything similar until yesterday. this time, kahit hindi lumiliko ay may nagddrip na water. i checked under the dash and noticed some condensation.

this is my dad's family ride but since he passed early this month, sa akin na napunta ang task to maintain their innova. ano po kaya ang cause ng water condensation and ano ang pwede kong gawin? and ano din po kaya ang cause nung spray sound?

thanks in advance

I suspect that is related to your aircon. I do not know if it is accessible but there should be a hose that should drain the condensate to the outside of the vehicle, Check if something is blocking the drainage hose.

thanks for the reply. here's a photo of what's under the center of the dash. is it normal to have water there? the water drips from what's under the center of the glove though. planning a visit to my dad's choice of car AC repair shop over the weekend. as a band aid solution, i taped a diaper to catch the dripping water.




the hose at the bottom of the photo's supposed to drain the condensate but i reckon the water's coming from some place else as i just had this cleaned.
