any feedback kung ano nasunog? alternator ba?





*Ruelito

Did they pressure wash the engine. Kung amoy sunog , most likely alternator yan.

I have detailed my engine several times already. no pressure washing but hose down lang. pero i air dry the engine and specially the alternator bago start

Sir, hindi ko nakita kung paano nila engine detail yung unit ko dahil iniwan ko at maghapon daw nilang gagawin! Tiwala naman ako sa BB dahil waterless daw ang engine detailing nila! Pero duda talaga ako, kung waterless paanong nangyari yun?

[Ginnova]

waterless is actually not waterless but less-water. engine cleaning requires some chemicals that are diluted by water like apc's and degreasers. ex. meg's apc requires a minimum dilution of 1:4 ( 1 part apc , 4 parts water ).


ano sabi ng toyota about the problem, covered ba ng warranty?

Ms. Liv, engine detail, not engine wash. First time ko sa bigbert pa-detail ng engine since regular ako pa-carwash sa kanila. Kakukuha ko lang kanina unit ko from toyota, diagnosed nila na starter daw ang pinalitan nila dahilan ng di pag andar ng makina. Kausap ko si Mr. Jeffrey Chua-Bigbert QC, kung ano daw ang nangyari sa sasakyan, di raw sagot ng bigbert! Parang di ata tama?! Any comment dito mga ka-innova?

baka nga di BB engine detail naging sanhi ng failure mo ng starter, baka coincidence lang di siguro bumitaw starter mo. factory defect siguro yan meron din akong nabalitaan ganyan case pero di innova.

Tumakbo kamo for a while tapos may nag-amoy sunog.... Hhhmmm... mukhang hindi nag-retract ang starter kaya nasunog....

Not sure kung regular engine detailing could cause this...But, they are the last touch....

Noted dito Sir.

Tinanong ko ang TYT kung baket nangyari na huminto ang engine, di daw nila masabi sanhi ng pagkasira, hindi daw naman nila pwedeng buksan yung nasirang STARTER dahil papalitan ng bago ng planta (cost of bnew P16k). Last friday nag pa PMS ako sa TYT ODO 40k, monday after ko pa detail sa BB, mga 10mins na tumatakbo sa kalsada duon tumigil sa daan yung auto. Wala naman akong binayaran dahil mag 2 yrs pa lang yung unit.

[annika]

good day, I'm planning to change may wheels to 17", my concern is would it do any harm to the mechanism of the Innova under chassis since the stock is only 15"? thanks

Na experience ko rin sa company car na gamit ko dito sa middle east, Toyota Yaris Sedan (Vios sa Pinas) brand new binigay sakin last December lang bago pa maka 1000 km, 6 times ko na experience di bumibitaw yung starter, pero naririnig ko naman ung tunog kaya sabay patay ulit ng makina.

What are the scope of work for the PMS cost of Php1,800?

Toy Pasig 20K PMS Labor
Oil Filter + Drain Plug
Brought our own Iridium Plug + Mobil 1 Oil. Bought the van from Toy Makati but Makati does not allow outside oil.

[vic2rem]

Go to casa that let's you bring your own oil. Casa found out I had a leaky front shock, replaced under warranty. If not for them, I would never find out I had a leaky shock. Highly recommended is Toy Pasig. For 10, 20, 30K pms, Just politely decline engine flush, fuel additive, car wash and bring your own oil and spark plugs. Your 10, 20, 30K pms would be less than P1,800 for oil filter, drain plug washer and labor. You can even try to ask for 10% discount

[meledson]

Just got the plates. TQB ***. exactly 1 month. kaso wala pa stickers.

Hi, i'm new here & just got our innova last 2 weeks. I'm just curious about the tire pressure, our SA said that I put 29psi for the front & 30psi for the rear tires but the manual says that tire pressure should be 33psi for both front & rear(unloaded). What could you recommend based on your experience?

33-35psi - malambot ang sidewalls ng stock tire na Yokohama, dumadapa pag kulang ng hangin.

[Mile2]

Sa mga nakaka-experience ng fumes getting in to your rear aircon, check you rear shutter flaps passenger side doon dumadaan ang usok galing labas.

Had my aircon cleaned and rear evaporator replaced today, found out also today that the rear aircon is not recirculate it gets outside air from the shutter flaps. The rear aircon assembly has a tube connected directly on the passenger side shutter flaps.

Problem with the shutter flaps is that it has no user control on opening or shutting it close, control is only by cabin pressure.

parang kulang pa ang 37 psi. Ito ang gamit namin. may nakita ako, 40 psi ang gamit sa stock tires.

Saan located ang rear shutter flaps?

[Ginnova]

the rubber flaps are located at sides of the rear bumper. the flaps are one-way and if air is sucked from that portion, the flaps actually will close. the fan does not suck air from the outside but from inside the cabin. i intentionally covered the opening of the rear fan before and no air comes out of the rear air-con vents.

sakin ngayon is 30 both front and rear, ok naman sakin, di matagtag, matipid din sa krudo. pero ginawa ko na din yung 33 pareho, ok din naman.

dati 33 35 sakin, ang tagtag eh, hehe.

di ba matagtag to sir? sa 35 pa lang matagtag eh.

sir san po kayo nag pa repair ng dents?

I had a PDR repairs. 1,500 for 10 dimples and 3 fist-size na dent.

"i intentionally covered the opening of the rear fan" is this the horizontal openings on the passenger side panel of 3rd row seats?

Can we really permanently close the shutter flaps? Mine is not permanently closed yet.

I can only think of 2 PDR specialist, one is Frank in examiner St in QC and one is Rovick in Buendia St., the Car dealer near corner Paseo St. in Makati.
