Toyota Innova Owners & Discussions [continued 3]

[Mile2]

wanting to get the opinion of the group, when do you say that the black emissions from a diesel engine are abnormal and need checking? from different threads, they say black smoke emissions are "normal" either in brand new (not yet broken in) or very old poorly maintained engines, in the morning (cold engine) and when accelerating hard.

not used to diesels. previous rides are gas engines. thanks

Diesel engine whether new or used would still spew black soot due to unburned carbons. Diesel has heavy particular that emits black soot when burned. Just for reference, Kerosene is much cleaner than diesel but still emits black soot when ignited.

How does diesel darken your oil? microscopic size soot clings to your engine cylinder walls and finds it way seeping through your piston rings and all the way to your oil system. I have use diesel fed engines before, even right after a change oil and few minutes of engine run, the oil will be darken immediately.

Why does gasoline oil does darken not much as compared to diesel fed engine? Simply gasoline emits very very less soot when ignited.

Sa diesel abnormal yung sobrang black soot even in idling or high rev. Sa mga CRDi hindi pa rin totally addressed yung incomplete diesel burn even Toyota has incorporate EGR, marami pa rin ang black soot, simply diesel will emit black soot no matter how you burn it.

In that sense bro,- walang "Immobilizer" ang Innova natin?

Correction lang. Kayang mai-start ng valet key ang sasakyan. - As the name implies "Valet key"

Ang hindi kaya ng Valet Key is to open the Globe Compartment at patigilin ang Alarm.

Mga bro, salamat sa mga mabilis na reply.

So kapag valet key pala ang binigay mo doon sa magpa-park ng sasakyan mo, di nya ma-open ang glove box tapos pwede lang nya i-lock ang sasakyan pero di enabled ang alarm ng TVSS.

Paano nga pala kung mahina na ang battery ng susi na may remote sa handle. Tapos na i-lock mo by remote at enable ang alarm tapos pag balik mo sa sasakyan ay wala na talagang battery? Uwi muna tapos kunin yong isa pang key o punta ulit sa mall at bili ng new battery for the key?

Dapat pala, palitan agad ang battery ng susi kung medyo pumapalya na.

Hi guys question lang. what is the problem kaya kung mejo matigas yung clutch ng innova? Does this normally happen over time? mine is 2006 innova j. Ano ba ang solution dito? Thanks.

Puede mo pa rin i-drive pauwi yan.

1. You can open the door by using the remote key manually, alarm will trigger the sound horn.
2. open the hood and pull one of the wire socket sa alarm horn.
3. start the engine and drive home (naka - hazard ka nga lang)

Ilan na ODO mo? Medyo matigas nga clutch ng Innova base on my observation. Hydraulic naman siya pero medyo matigas talaga parang cable

around 35 thousand. Pero nung tinry ko apakan yung naka display na 2012 new innova sa mall, ang lambot ng clutch.

peeps. our family is planning to go Baguio this July gamit yung Innova D4D AT. this would be the first time na dadalhin ko si Innova sa Kennon. ilang beses na rin ako nagpunta ng Baguio pero vios mt gamit ko. tanong ko lang kaya ba ng nasa 'D' position lang or mas maganda kung '3'? considering na 8 ang sakay at may bagahe pa.

[Retz]

I have here a lot of mobil1 5W-30 SM SN CF rating. I use this oil for my pick up truck. So its safe to use this for the innova as well? Looks like i need to sweet talk my service advisor to allow me to bring in my own oil with the corkage fee

Yes, you oculd use it. I assume this is an FS oil.

[jpcalub]

Bawal daw alisin yung fuel treatment at engine flush kasama dw po sa package yun.. Hinayaan ko n lng. Hndi nya din explain ung mga gagawin s 10k pms.

Sa toyota marikina po yan S.A bong salcedo.. Sila nasusunod kesyo kasama s package.. Wala na po un tapos na eh.
Wag na lng kau s toyota marikina pangetservice o wag lng s SA n yan.

Just put it sa D when going up to baguio. Going down you need to use the 3-2-1 for engine braking

Yep, im bringing in stuffs from the states regularly. So far i have only 30 quarts left with me for my personally consumption

Its better sir in your next PMS try looking for other options. Toyota commonwealth or other dealership that is near your place or workplace. For us, those items are non essential for a regular PMS.

my 2005 casa-installed alarm has a bypass system. i can use the valet key or the owner's key with dead alarm battery, to get into the car. the alarm will trigger, and i have to do "a few maneuvers" to quiet the alarm and start the engine. it's in my alarm's instruction manual. maybe yours has, too.
i believe the valet key is for the valet to park the car. when the valet exits and closes the door, the car automatically locks the doors and the alarm is set. the valet can get back inside using the valet key, but he can't turn off the ensuing alarm. he'll have to get a hold of your owner's key to get in without triggering the alarm. but can he drive away with the car when you first exchange seats with him? alas, yess..

You should have insisted that you dont want to avail of those items. They are not required and are useless, really. Ask them to show you where in the manual does it state you need to use those things. Ang gawi ko kapag tinawag na ang name or number ko, inuunahan ko na kaagad sila kung ano ang ayaw ko. Ilang beses na nagattend sa akin si Bong at di naman sya pumapalag. You've been had.

Lucky if you those kind of alarm na kahit putulin mo yung negative ng alarm horn e mag start pa. other security alarm wont allow those kind of maneuver. I experienced once sa kapitbahay namin. tagal nag aalarm nung auto nawalan ng bat. ung remote, ginwa nya pinutol nya yung negative ng alarm horn and tried to star it. ayaw nya mag crank.. pinuntahan ko. maynakita ako red button sa may alrm module. same set up to mine kaya napa start ko using the vallet key.

Thanks Doc D.

Oo nga eh, yong mga dati naming sasakyan na aftermarket alarm ang nakakabit (viper, code alarm, y2K) ay ganoon nga. Bukas pinto, tutunog ang alarm, turn ignition on tapos pindutin ang secret/hidden button o switch to disable the alarm.

Yong sa Innova na nakuha ko ay may transponder (transmitter/responder) na ang susi. Ala wave key ng Honda kung baga. Di lang basta pwede ipa-kopya yong susi sa sidewalk locksmiths kasi bukod sa shape ng mga ngipin ng susi ay naka program na yong transponder ng mga original keys na sila lang ang kilala ng sasakyan. Ang nangyayari eh kapag pinasok sa keyhole yong susi ay mag-uusap yong kotse at yong susi. Kung di sila magkakilala eh di mag-start yong sasakyan - deadma nya si susi. Problem nga lang kung nagka-sore throat yong susi - kung naubusan ng battery. Di sila makakapag-usap ng sasakyan. Nagsisilbi ding imobilizer yong transponder key kasi di mag-o-on si sasakyan kung di pre-programmed ng Toyota yong transponder ng susi.

If the key fob has ran out of battery and can't be used to disarm the TVSS, one of method that I have either heard or read about is:

1. Manually unlock the door (driver's)
2. Open the door and the alarm will sound. Insert key into ignition switch.
3. Turn key from "off" position to "on" posistion and vice versa, several times (not sure how many times)
4. Siren will supposedly turn off.

Try it !
