Toyota Innova Owners & Discussions [continued 3]

Thanks to all who replied to my post.

My Innova 2.5G is going to be delivered tomorrow. Can you guys suggest what accessories/trimmings would look nice on my car? I don't want to put roof rack because I would have no use for it. I am thinking about a spoiler and the metal thing that attaches to the rear bumper. What other suggestions please?

Thank you.

Welcome to your new baby make sure to secure your spare tire with lock.

Also secure your side mirrors. It only take less than 5 seconds to take them out.

Sir, ung mga magnanakaw ng spare tire alam nila yan. kidding aside. You might opt to borrow na lang tools to release your spare tire. It is just a long steel with hook at the end for bringing down your spare tire.

Try Dieselex sir along A. bonifacio good service and competitive pricing hth ;)

Thanks Boybawang. do you have any idea how much is the labor for EGR cleaning?

Hi fox615. How do I secure the side mirrors? This is the first time I've read this - securing side mirrors. Thank you.

Hello sysad. What kind of lock is best for this? Thank you.

Hi fox615. How do I secure the side mirrors? This is the first time I've read this - securing side mirrors. Thank you.

One way to secure your side mirrors without the need to put on those steel protectors is to have your plate numbers etched... Did this on my 07 Innova... Side mirrors still intact up to now that it's my brother who owns it... Did it as well on my 2012 Innova.

any after market locks will do. check out in goldcars banawe.

another way of securing your spare tire is getting a plastic spare tire cover like that seen in the monterosport. looks very clean and neat and also takes care of the unsightly dangling chain. available in some dealerships but a little expensive, costs 4375 toyota north edsa. the cover prevents access to the spare tire so the thief won't be able to deflate it. had problems with locks as they get stuck with dirt and would be very hard to unlock (especially after a flat tire in the middle of edsa in midday heat with your office clothes on).

unahan mo sila by taking them out yourself, and put them back when you drive off.. ?
or put them in a metal cage..? very unsightly..
etch them? why, so the thief knows from whom they are stealing?
heh heh..
my recommendation is to make them ugly, by squirting hot glue gun on them to make it appear they're cracked...

yung sakin din sir ang tagal ng plate. May 12, 2012 namin nakuha yung unit. hanggang ngayon wala pa din yung plate? sa toyota dasma kami kumuha.

[ericson21]

never tried spare tire lock and side mirror protector or yung naka etched yung plate number sa side mirror on our cars, why? gastos lang kase for me. kahit me ganun pa, alam pa din ng magnanakaw tangallin yung mga yun for them to steal the item. kung mananakaw, mananakaw pa din talaga although never pa kame nanakawan ng spare tire at side mirror for the past 13 years na may sasakyan kame, (wag sana manakawan). i have a friend who owns a mazda 3 which has side mirror protectors to avoid theft, pero nanakawan pa din ng side mirror.

in my opinion, the best way to protect your car's spare tire and side mirror, as well as the whole car is not to park on the areas which you think is not good. well, this is based on your assessment in the place now car owner. well, sabagay kahit ganu ka secure pa yung place me nananakaw pa din, meron ngang kasabihan na pag mamalasin nga naman.

this is just my opinion though. :D

[first_light]

Nangyayari po usually pag biglang malakas na ulan tapos tumataas agad ang tubig. nababasa ang disc. usok...

thanks sa advice... di ko na i washing agad si Innova pag galing biyahe kahit maputik pa

Pwede niyo pong basahin para malinis yung mga putik, basta mainit (di sobrang init) na tubig lang po gamitin niyo para di mapasma.

One question sir. Pag tuwing pupunta kame ng baguio, pag pataas ng lalo na ung malapit sa lion, my dad usually off the frickin aircon. Tinanong ko dad ko sabi nya para hindi daw mahirapan ang makina. Ang tanong ko lang ba kung may katuturan ba yun? By the way we're using 2010 innova G d-4d A/T 46km na ang natakbo
