mas mabigat talaga ang innova.
simple law of physics: F=MA. Simply put, it means if your car is 30% heavier, it needs 30% more energy (fuel) to make it move as fast and/or as far as the lighter vehicle. Now, a more efficient engine may make the penalty smaller, but this little equation says it all..
Korek sir. Underpowered nga cguro si innova. May mga nabasa ako na sa ibang bansa, may 2.7 variant ng vvti. Bale 2tr-fe ang engine. 1tr-fe dito sa pinas. Sana naglabas din sila dito ng ganitong variant ng engine. Nakakapanibago lng talaga yung less torque at speed ng innova compared sa avanza at altis ko.
hindi underpowered yan, matulin humatak sa experience ko yang VVT-i innova although D-4D ang innova ko. sadyang mas magaan lang talaga altis and avanza or depende na lang din talaga sa driving habis ng driver yan eh. 136Hp yan eh compared to the 107Hp ata ng vanzy eh, but underpowered, nah, i doubt it. :D
Just contact their Sales/Admin of your dealershp. Paid Toyota Makati P1,040 for LTO registration sticker through their sales/admin for the 6 months 2012 LTO sticker kasi registered til Nov 2012 lang. Pero P1,450 yata nakalagay sa Resibo ng Toyota Makati. Siguro may errand payment or maybe there was an additional fee for TPL for 6 months but I got no paperwork for the TPL extension. My TPL is good pa naman til Nov. I will just inquire once I renew my comprehensive insurance on Nov. Maybe they just forgot the give me the TPL form. Pero next year, dapat emission na and full one year LTO and TPL. So Toyota makati registered my Innova Nov 2009 to April 2013 or 3 1/2 years w/out emission testing. Hope this helps.
I got 2010 A/T Gas. mga 6-7 km per L. Ortigas/Makati Traffic. pero 9-11 km per L pag hiway. Don't worry abt the gas, less PMS. No worry about dirty diesel, suction valve, dirty fuel fillter. Sensitive ang diesel sa dirty fuel and it's imperative to change oil every 5K. Kahit every 10K PMS ka na lang pag gas. Go to Toyota C5 for PMS and you can bring your own synthetic oil. Just make sure to always tell them, "NO fuel additive, NO engine flush." Last time nilagyan nila ng engine flush kahit sinabihan ko ang driver namin na e mention sa service advisor na NO flushes or additive. But C5 gave us 10%off for 30K pms and free labor for brake pads kasi pinalitan nila under warranty ang leaking shock. My 10K, 20K, 30K pms were always under P1,800 with my own iridium spark plug and Mobil 1 oil. Changed at 20K, AirCon Filter P900. Changed at 30K, Brake pads that costs P1,950 with free labor Yokohama Pasig Aspec Tire 205/65/15 P3,900 per tire plus P20 per weight.
Sir,
Sa laki ng budget mo for a 2nd hand unit, you can even buy one that is still under casa warranty. Try looking at ayosdito.ph for units. These are casa-maintained and even some have D4D engines.![]()
I've pondered this as well since may 650K ako nun kaya lang I still opt for a brand new one since 9% lang interest rate binigay ng bank sa kin (300K loan, 18 mos to pay) at wala na din ako balak bumili ng iba pang sasakyan within 10 yrs time. Just my 2 cents.![]()
sirs, question lang po. Newbie po sa Innova.
Ok po ba yung quality ng HID na binebenta sa toyota casa? Anong brand po ba doon ang ok?
Also, yung AVT entertainment system ba sa casa din ay ok?
Salamat po sa feedback.
Toyota Makati Nov 2009, AVT GPS with TV double din P45,000 minus P10,000 for trading-in the radio so I paid P35,000 plus P7,500 for rear camera pero kinabit ang camera sa loob ng rear door glass. Medyo madilim kasi tinted ang rear door tapos hindi makikita yong edge ng bumper. I think much better yong double din nga binebenta sa online sul...com.ph, exact fit na double din tapos yong rear camera nila nasa rear license plate light. P28,000 langa yata yon. Easy install kasi plug n play lang. No cutting ng wires. Easy isntall lang naman yan. When I checked toyota makati installation, yong reverse wiring, e coconect sa rear passenger door driver's side door jam, don mag tap for the reverse.
mga magkano 5k PMS (d4d at regular oil). nagpasched na kasi ako sa makati sa sat.
In which case, bro.,- pareho tayo ng preference sa sasakyan,- GS and Innova are two of our rides...
And yes, P700K would definitely be a decent almost brand new Innova ride for you.... A 2008/9 Innova AT "V" ; 2009/10 Innova AT "G" would be in the ballpark....

Sa Innova J variant...
Ano ang mas bagay na color in stock form? RED(Red Mica) or SILVER(Thermalyte)? - most probably upgrades will be limited to basic accesories (mudguards, colorkeyed door mouldings, crome side mirror cover, door handles and tail light covers)
Originally SIlver ang choice namin kaso nung maka kita ng Red si misis parang maganda rin daw..hehehehehe confused tuloy kme on what to get.
Sir,
Parehas tayo ng dilemma ngaun. White and Red lang available colors ngaun sa dealer na kausap ko kaya pinipilit niya ko magpalit ng color para lang makuha ko na unit ko.
Eto sir kinonsider ko bakit silver ang napili ko.
RED = High maintenance dahil kailangan laging makintab at malinis pero eye-candy talaga pag malinis
WHITE = Masyado madumihin lalo pag natatalsikan kapag umuulan pero maganda din talga pag malinis siya
SILVER = Madaling linisin at di pansinin ang dumi. Bland lang talaga ang kulay. Kaya din siguro eto ang kulay ng mga mags at cover ng steel rims.
Dahil nasa Pilipinas tayo, half of every year or half of our lifetime e umuulan at basa mga kalsada. Pero sa tanda ko sa mga post mo, bihira mo naman gagamitin Innova mo sir (kaya nga napilitan ka mag VVTi) kaya pde mo na rin iconsider ung ibang color.![]()
