I recently got an Innova touring Sport variant.

Under the hood it's 2.8L Diesel.
Pansin ko lang under the hood it has no engine insulator or engine cover while the G & V variant has.

Question lang sa mga experienced and long time Innova owners:
Is there any different in terms of emitting engine noise while driving for the variant with and without the cover on the engine?

I'm planning to have it install in my unit if it makes any difference.

salamat po.

It's just ornamental.

Meron difference yan. quantifying it in decibels, it would probably less than 1dB but more or less 1dB.

Do get it. Upgrade the firewall too. You can really hear the engine even while idling in traffic

I always thought those insulators help in preventing the under-hood paint from prematurely fading due to the high heat generated in the engine compartment?

Nope. That job is for the hood liner.

Ah yes, sir. I did not look at the picture, my fault.

i really interested in getting it, I just need an inputs from some expert to have it worth. An agent told me about this as well, he tested to drive it, just need more to confirm it.

Thanks mate.

Thanks mate.

bro you can compare the innova and the fortuner,

the fortuner is so much quieter than the innova in traffic. though the vibration is almost the same.

the sound insulation needs to be improved on the innova.

I just don't think it is, every component has it's purpose for functioning besides the location is not visible enough when running that could be consider as ornament, but it might be.

Just need more inputs.

Thanks for taking time responding my query mate.
