Toyota Innova Owners & Discussions [continued 3]

[MrQ5]

ayon sinagot na ni sir CVT, may benefits ang pag rev upto redline paminsan minsan to expel carbon build up. yun ang paliwanag saken ng toyota ewan ko lang kung totoo hehehe. "poor man's decarbonization" ok ba?

[Retz]

After driving for about 30 mins earlier this evening, I noticed when I depress the brake pedal and slowly release it, I could hear a slight squeeking sound. anyone had encountered this? ano kaya caused nito? will try to observe again tomorrow.

[meledson]

wow. gaano katagal bago niyo na-reach yung 1000km?

makukuha na namin yung Innova G naman tom. Plano ko normal driving lang. Iwas lang sa sobrang taas na rev. Pero as far as travel distance, more likely walang pagbabago. 60+++kms papuntang MM from Los Banos.

sorry di ko na tanda kung kailan ang 1,000Km PMS. Pero early this month ako nagpa PMS for 10,000 Km. nadala from laguna to pagudpod. after ng 5,000 Km PMS. Feb this year nabili.

Good day everyone!

Anyone experienced this on your innova? especially the 2012 models? nag momoist ung headlights during rainy days and some moist visible even when its not raining? (kagabi from makati to tanza - about 2 hours drive, pagdating namin sa bahay may konting moist dun sa may signal light side)




Nawawala din naman kaagad ung moist. pero ask ko lang normal lang ba yun? baka kasi lumabo kaagad ung headlights pag laging ganon.

nagkaganyan din saken dati bro, mga 2 beses lang nung bago pa, di na ulit naulit yun hehe.

We got our Innova G Dsl MT Bronze Mica at Toyota Alabang yesterday. First brand new car.

Pardon my laziness to search, but is there a way to disable the alarm of the TVSS?

Mejo kakahiya sa kapitbahay kasi. Eh mukang may napadikit na aso eh tumutunong na agad.

IMHO its better to set it to silent mode than to totally disable it... AFAIK its in the manual to how to change the TVSS into silent mode.. HTH

Ahhh cge ma obserbahan nalang muna. baka me break-in period din ang headlights hehehe. 3X ko na na experience ito since nung kinuha last may. yan ung pinaka malala. ung 2 instance konti lang.

Thanks!
Hatinggabi na kasi kami dumating sa bahay. Ni-try ko basahin sa manual yung alarm pero ndi ko nakita. Tingnan ko uli memeya.

mga Bosing magandang araw po sa inyong lahat.
last Oct 20 (pagka galing sa TMP Tour) napasin ko pong parang nag tear mga goma ko sa harap... idinaan ko po sa Evangelista at pina check. sabi ng mekaniko wala daw sa alignment plus needed na daw ilipat ung goma ng harap sa likod. instead na ilipat pinapalitan ko na lang po ng goma from 215/55/17 to 215/50/17 for safety reason. ang tanong ko po ganito. since inalign na nila 'yung harap dapat po diba diretso na 'yung Steering wheel ko? bakit po ganun, napansin ko lang yesterday habang nasa SLEX ako naka turn ng konti steering wheel ko to the left para ako maka takbo ng Diretso? needed ko po bang ibalik sasakyan ko para pa check uilt?

salamat po & GOD Bless!

After you get off your vehicle, close the door. Do not use the button on the key handle to lock the car. Just insert the key in the keyhole and turn it to lock the car (pretend you don't have keyless entry with alarm). Unlike aftermarket alarms, TVSS doesn't enable automatically after a minute or two. It stays disabled unless you press the button on the key handle to enable it.

But TVSS is also dangerous. If you leave your car unlocked and go away, it won't arm itself and lock the doors. Bad guys can get in but they will need lots of skills to steal your car because they don't have your transponder key or wave key. The movie thing where they tap two wires together doesn't work here. But they can steal your phone, laptop and wharever you leave in your car.

They can also put your car in neutral, push it to a truck bed and take it home hehe.

Part ng wheel alignment ang leveling ng steering wheel. Dapat pinantay nila ito.

onga nung nakita ko yung pic mo ang daming moist nung HL mo bro. kase dati nireport ko yun sa casa eh. di daw dapat mag moist talaga, sabe saken pag naulit dalin ko daw dun para i warranty, palit headlights ako. eh di naman na naulit hehe.

saken kase 2 beses lang nangyari yun, nung 1st day after ilabas ng casa malakas ang ulan, nag moist pero sa gilid lang, konting konti. tapos yung 2nd is 2months old innova ko, inuwi namen ng province, umulan din ng malakas nun, nag moist din pero konti lang din, sa gilid lang. tapos nun di na naulit kahit umuulan pa.

Noong nag pa align ako 3 times pa ako bumalik balik sa Servitek para lang ma derecho ang alignment sa wheel at sa manibela.

Di ko lang ma gets kung bakit di nila magawa gawa ng tama kahit computerize naman sila.

RE: Moisture inside headlights.

This is perfectly normal. Even the manual says so. But back in 2006, I didn't believe it and to put myself at peace, I went to a dealer to a complain about it. First visit, they supposedly changed the lens only. B_S_. Second visit and complain, they changed both front headlamps with a brand new pair under warranty. Til today even with the new set, slight moisture still occurs under the same driving conditions as Markduguran experienced.

BTW, if there are big drops of water or moisture that does not disappear after a few hours, thats not normal anymore.

para yatang masyadong maraming moisture yan.. i have experience with at least five vehicles with similar headlight assemblies., including a 2005 innova and 2012 innova. none of them develop moisture.
check the rubber covers behind the headlight assembly, the one around the bulb socket. they may be incorrectly placed or attached.(some models have an up and down directionality), or in need of replacement (good luck with this). but again, these assemblies are not submerge-proof. baka naman mataas ang baha o mala-ondoy na...

[Retz]

I hardly notices mosture in the headlamp maybe it is already gone the time i see it. Ang nag momoist usually ay ung upper part ng windshield.

[dr. d]

i have a question.
the free play on my gearshift lever is already too big. i want to have it fixed. but do i have to bring down the entire middle console assembly to get at it? it's too much work...

hi! mahirap po ba talagang ibaba yung spare tire? bumili po kasi ako ng lock para sa spare pero nung iniikot ko na para ibaba yung gulong parang nalusot yung tool na hook sa loob... nag patulong na din ako sa driver namin kaso ayaw talaga maikot

Once you insert the assembled shafting and attach it onto the knob inside, you need to turn it counterclockwise. It would need a bit of force initially to loosen the knob. Once done its easy to turn it all the way until the tire comes down.
