Toyota Innova Owners & Discussions [continued 3]

[jowel]

Guys got this neighbor planning to sell their Innova 2.5E Diesel matic 2007 model, Ask ko lang mga Gurus out there kung ok ba bilhin? any suggestion sa mga bumili ng second hand Innova Diesel???

TIA

Design flaw kaya ito ng brake system ng Innova? Has anyone brought this to Toyota's attention? Pag-OEM brake shoe ba ang ipinalit, kailangan pa ding mag pa-reface?

Sorry for the questions, medyo concerned lang kasi ako. Kung everytime na magpapalit tayo ng brake shoe eh kailangan magpa-reface ng brake drum, baka naman numipis agad ng sobra ang brakedrum natin?

Baka may dahilan ang toyota kung bakit ganun ang design ng brake shoe nila (para mabilis mapudpod ang drum? hehehe) 1st time ko lang nakakita ng ganito na mas makitid yung shoe kaysa sa width ng brake drum. Yung sa L300 namin sakto naman yung lapad ng shoe sa drum.

Di naman ako umabot ng bakal sa bakal, OEM yung brake shoe ko pero nahukayan pa rin ako ng drum. Iba talaga yung case ng sa innova, dapat magpa reface ka para pumantay sya uli.

[innovavilla]

yeah, stopping innova is a PITA sometimes. how much is the score with a set of bedix pads (fr) and shoe (rr)? where did you get these items?

as for the rear, theoretically yes a larger surface area will stop better than that of a smaller one. has there been a difference in the surface area of the front pads? - i doubt. i could be wrong though. can you validate my assumption?

Sorry sir di ko pa nasubukan ung malapad na brake shoe, si sir mile2 ang makakasagot nyan sa tanong mo.

eto sir yung post ni sir mile2:

Bendix General CT - Front pads P950
Bendix General CT - Rear shoe P1450
Brake drum refacing/pair - P1,500

When changing to Bendix brake shoe, it is a must to reface the brake drums. Toyota OEM brake shoe lining is narrower by 1/4 inch on each side and this creates a deep canal on the brake drum. Bendix brake shoe lining is almost the same width with respect to the brake shoe itself.

Note: Don't use R-Spec pads (P750), very poor grip.

Advantage na yan sir kasi kilala mo ung owner. Ask mo lang yung history ng car nya para at least may idea ka on how he used / abused his innova . Take note also sa condition ng tranny at A/T oil. It should be changed every 40K or less. Much better kung may sarili kang mechanic para mag check. Mine is also a 07 2.5E A/T, so far so good at 81k ODO (never experienced those so called D4D problems )

Good luck!

[Ginnova]

check mo mabuti baka may issue ng stalling or chocking yan. kung ilan na tinakbo at kung properly maintained. just curious also, magkano ba bentahan ng 07 na Innova.

[Ginnova]

Tama ka sir, coz they were pointing to the wheel wells na kita raw ang pintura.
Ok lang kaya undercoating sa gasoline station? especially yung Shell na undercoating...mga how much kaya?
TIA.

Dapat kasama sa freebies yung undercoating mo. marami naman naglalagay ng undercoating sa labas including yung gasoline stations.
pero yung sa akin i changed the black undercoating and used epoxy primer / enamel. mas madali rin linisin at hindi kumakapit ang dirt/mud.

I just looked at our D-4D and in my observation, isn't it a bit of a crowded when in comes to removing and installing the oil filter? Any comments?

i asked petron blue wave how much would they charged for undercoating, they said 3k for 3M. i haggled it at 2.5K but yet to have mine service.

likewise, they are the one responsible for the rustproofing of vehicles purchased from toyota manila bay because it is owned by one and the same owner.

hope this help,

yes, it is very difficult to remove. that is why, my mekaniko punctures it with a small pitchfork from the top. then it becomes very easy. screwing the new one is easy, however, as it requires only hand-tightness.

He punctures the filter to make it leak oil first before removing? Making the oil leak out first makes the cartridge easier to remove by hand ?

i think what the mechanic does is puncture it and use the puncturing tool as a lever to turn - i haven't seen a d4d upfront, but this is how imagine how he does the removal...

Can you verify the width of the bendix brake shoe against the width of the oem brake shoe? 1/4" width difference is quite a lot for a brake shoe...

fellow innova owners,

anyone who has a DIY instructions sa pagtanggal ng sidings hiding the rear aircon evaporator?gusto ko sana i-check at linisin. ang alam ko kasi walang filter yun eh like the one in front na may cabin filter. May nag-post dito dati but i cant find it anymore. Ang nakita ko lang dito sa forum ay yung dashboard removal. thanks in advance!

[shinobi29]

If its for highway travel, the manual is better bec. it has an extra higher gear (5th gear vs. 4th gear in Automatic trans.). This translates to lower revs therefore better fuel consumption.

Maintenance-wise, they are similar. The manual might require some service with clutch (depending on the driver if they know or dont know how to modulate it properly, affects the clutch's life).




Its not possible. It is more than the keys. You need a system control module and etc...



Casa prices are quite expensive. The only thing going for the casa is that if the customer won't take the risk of having alarm installed outside, then having the casa install the alarm will avoid any warranty violation(s).




Well you are lucky. When we got our green D-4D M/T "E" last month, we didn't get any of those you mentioned. If I were you, I will tell the agent to give a Solex tire spare tire lock instead of the alarm or the backup sensor or even both. The spare lock from Toyota casa is better than the copies being sold outside. Better and priced lower alarms and backup sensors are readily available outside.

- Thank you chief.
