paki describe yung squeaking sound na sinasabi mo. usually kasi sa bushing ay parang lagatok. squeaking sound is heard when shifting only or whenever your car will start to move?

Yes Yes squeaking sound is heard when shifting only

Anyone has ever had a white mica Innova?

Background: I have had silver cars for the better part of the last two decades due to them being relatively low-maintenance. Fast-forward to a few weeks ago, my knee-jerk reaction was to again pick silver for my next car, so I placed an order for a silver Innova G.

The problem is, it's still several days out (or weeks, nobody really knows).

What is available now is the white mica variant.

So the 1.6M question is, should I pickup the white now or just wait for the silver? Please provide your reasons and/or insights, please. Thanks!

If you can get a more definite timeline than that i'd wait since the pearl finish(if white pearl is the color that you are referring to) may be more difficult to maintain than silver and costs more.

Preference wise i think the other colors suite the innova better than the shade of silver that they are using.

Did some independent research and decided to go with the white pearl crystal.... para maiba naman.

My last two cars were silver... Civic FD and my previous Innova. Frankly, I was getting bored with it. lol

Anyway, the rep offered the white option and matched the price of the silver variant. So that removed the commercial barrier.

If I might add, less heat gain with white paint so that translates to a slightly lower interior temperature, particularly useful now.

silver is my favorite color. i can get away with not cleaning the car for long-ish periods of time.
my latest acquition is a pearl white altis. it's such a magnet for imperfections, dark dirt, scrapes and dings!
my next car will definitely be silver, again.

that's one of the other reasons I was able to convince my wife (she wanted a black car). the other was safety consideration during night drive.

I agree on that one. That was also the reason I got silver vehicles. This time however, I decided to throw caution in the wind and bought something different.

I have been car-less during the last couple of weeks since I sold mine and have been borrowing my Dad's silver Innova 2.8 G. I attended a meeting in QC this morning and had to drive to BGC at 12pm. The car was parked in the sun for two hours and during my drive to The Fort, the A/C was barely making a dent under the noon sun. I imagine it would be worse if it had dark paint.

Hmmm.... Kailangan na ng aircon service niyan innova mo. I have a blackish red innova. Bilad sa araw from 10am-3pm. When i get in the car and turn the AC on, kaya naman palamigin buong kotse. Partida leatherette seats pa yun...

I also prefer silver. hindi halata na madumi na and some imperfections like faded color and slight dent.

long time ago we had a white car. have to clean it often madali ma stain makita yung black stain and with

age nag yellowish siya. LIke sa mga trucks na white you can see black lines from water flow.


pero maganda yung pearl white for me its elegant , especially sa mga Land cruiser its very nice.

manual ba ang innova mo?

Automatic po Sir
