Toyota Innova Owners & Discussions [continued 3]

[dr. d]

Mga gurus, where can I have the rubber housing and "keypad" of master key of the Innova G AT replaced. Natanggal na kasi mga pindutan sa mismong susi kaya naka disable muna ang key-less entry/alarm. I mean, obviously sa casa but its quite expensive, meron bang alternative kasi di naman kailangan yata ang reprogramming since only the "key pad" is damaged. Qc area BTW.

do you still have the part? bring it to a cellphone repairman. he might be able to repair the keypad. frequently, it's just a matter of keypad rubber displacement. it can be easily re-sit. i do it all the time with mine.

Favor lang mga ka-innovers, would you kindly comment on this "ill advice u sir to purchase a plate cover before we install it to your car to protect it from stealing your plate.. it will only cost u around 2,500 front and back cover." Natangap ko po yan from my SA kahapon. Salamat po!

it's costly and it's not necessary. it also means more profit to some parties. and if you ask me, it should be declared illegal, because it renders the plate number difficult or impossible to read under certain conditions. but perhaps that is the real reason why some motorists do want it...
and if you really desperately want your number plate steal-resistant, use hi-tech special bolts, or a metal chain, or a hefty amount of superglue.. heh heh.

Plate cover is optional. Why not ask your SA to give it for free or a big discount perhaps.

I always get it for free as part of the deal. My altis and innova have the plate covers for aesthetic purposes. Have never thought about theft prevention because these can be easily removed as well.

mga sir.. ask ko lng po ano po magandang pang alis water marks sa slamin.. ng try ako ng glass cleaner di kaya. kumintab lng pero andun pa rin water marks.

thanks

In my own personal experience, best locally available is the Microtex Glaz Stainz Out and Stain Guard, no harsh chemical, no need to wear protective rubber gloves, very easy to apply and wipe off, protects your glass for months, rain repellant. Available in Blade stores.

The Mircotex Glaz Stainz Out when applied, it will dries into white film, removal of the white film will lift off dirt and watermarks easily. No need to break your arms doing hard rubbing when you use those other brands.

I have the Elevo product and I have them thrown to the bin, not safe to use. You'll need a lot of protective gloves and might damage your paint, because it is acid.

security purposes talaga yan. but we bought ours at banawe 1k lang. wag ka bibili dyan

Tnx for d advice dct!

The sad thing is, wala na ang mga pinipindut, only the car key and housing. Im thinking kung magpa install
na lang ng bago from car accessory shops kasi ang mahal ng replacement/pa revive sa Toyota. Replacement keys range from P9-12K change housing is P2100 tapos may programming fee pa while Taiwan made alarm with keyless entry ranges from P2-5K.

Too bad for you.

1. Maybe you are driving in Pasig between 7am-9am or 4pm-7pm. These are the number coding hours.

2. Maybe you did not follow the rules about conduction stickers. Maybe you thought if you do not have a plate number you can drive without restrictions. Condution stickers follow the same rule as regular plates. The last digit determines what day you are prohibited.

If you did not do #1 or #2, video the apprehending officer and tell him to explain your violation.
Then go to his boss or the MMDA office to fight for your case.
This is the latest memorandum.


Separate Memo about...


CONDUCTION STICKERS

All unregistered motor vehicles shall only be authorized to travel through the use of the Conduction Stickers, which should be prominently displayed on the right front windshield of each vehicle,

The Conduction Sticker attached to a motor vehicle shall be valid until the vehicle is sold and delivered to the end-user who must apply for vehicle registration within 7 (seven) days from date of delivery.

Only authorized and accredited driver of the manufacturer, assembler, importer, or dealer concerned is authorized to operate a vehicle travelling under the authority of the Conduction Sticker.

The accredited driver should always carry the original Authority to Operate prescribed by the LTO whenever he or she travels under the authority of the Conduction Stickers.

sir meron sa sulit search mo "toyota key" . Meron hard case na pareho sa 2007 G and V up models parehong-pareho ng susi ko na model 2007. Buy it and transfer the the cover to your present key no need re-programming. Price ranges from 800 to 1000 pesos only.

if I remember correctly tsikoteer AAMD who is also a seller at sulit posted in this thread about the replacement key cover.

i was once looking around in the accessories corner of the casa. there were two remote kits. i was told, one model offers you re-orders of the remote, while the other, you're stuck with what comes out of the box. why not drop by and find out if you can buy replacements..
if you can not re-order, mebbe you will just have to replace your remote kit.. it's not that expensive.. 100 USD or so..

nag advice lang yan ng ganyan para pag may plate cover ka na eh di mo na ulit babaklasin plate number mo para ilagay sa plate cover then kabit ulit. pero sobrang mahal naman nung sinasabe nyang plate cover.

optional yan, kung gusto mo meron, kung gusto mo wala. porma din yung plate cover and protection also. price range nyan is 1k-1.5k maganda na yun. saken 1.3k ko nabili kay goldrich sa banawe.

[CVT]

Plate cover,- kapag bagong rehistro at palit ng sticker,- babaklasin mo ito at ikakabit ang sticker sa mismong plaka...

Of course, puwede ring sa plate cover,- pero, kapag nabundol ka at nabasag ito,- baka makalimutan mong doon mo ikinabit ang iyong registration sticker...

Yup, hassle sa akin, bro...

Pero, obviously, magagaling ang mga magnanakaw sa ganyang mga tirada (diskarte nila iyan, i.e.,- that is their trade),- so, it does not make much of a difference with them....

Kung ako ang magnanakaw..mas priority ko na syempre ung less hassle. ex. 2 standard screws vs 6screws(deflector brand - 4 small philips screws for every corner + 2 allen screws)?
