Toyota Innova Owners & Discussions [continued 3]

[StockEngine]

Sirs tanong ko lang,

Yung fuel light laging umiilaw sa aking dashboard. Ginagawa ko yung reset (remove connector, start battery, re-connect) para mawala at saka pina-pump ko ng limang beses ang filter para mawala kung ano man tubig ang mayroon. Kaso laging bumabalik after about 7-10 days. Is this a sign of a faulty filter, sensor or a deeper issue? Or baka marami lang talagang tubig na nafilter na kailangang ilabas?

how old is the filter?

i had this problem before. i couldn't turn off the warning light, after i had replaced the filter. i followed the manual's instructions, to no avail. so... i did the un-think-able:
i replaced the entire assembly.
back then in 2005, it cost me less than 3K.

someone in these threads here, posted his way to make that light wink out. perhaps you can look for it.

We traced the issue from the original alternator pulley being loose, but instead of readjusting it, we bought a new one as it's past 50,000kms already. I bought this one for innova/hilux/fortuner, seems popular sa mga auto parts store: Imgur: The magic of the Internet

It ran for about 500km before spinning out. We decided to just put the original one back in but readjusted for no noise. It could be the mechanic's fault for not installing the new one properly, or it could be that I'm not supposed to use this type. New one is Clutch/CAP-120, not sure what these mean. Also what's a solid pulley, and what is the type genuine Toyota uses?

that's strange.
all our pulleys are original from the factory since new, and haven't given us problems. my guess is, the vast majority of innova owners have similar happy experience as ours.
45K km .. 95K km.. 125K km..
our experience, is that if the new pulley is mis-aligned by even a very small margin, the belt will get de-railed.

what pulley does toyota manufacture install in their innovae?

Mga 7 years na sir, 60k mileage. Do you think it needs to be replaced na?

Is it that remove connector/start battery/reconnect process? Ginawa ko yan sir pero bumabalik mga every week. Gayun nga lang, medyo nag start yung pabalik2x nung naglagay ako ng murang diesel (O-Fuel). Ewan ko kung maraming tubig sa kanyang cup reservoir.

For the fuel light:

Blinking light: Sediment present in the fuel filter housing
Solid light: Fuel warning light - Low fuel pressure detected on the line between filter and supply pump, indicating a clogged filter

Sirs update ko lang, I checked my coolant level every morning for the past 3 days, the level is indeed dropping by about 1cm. I don't see any residue on the garage floor so maybe it's internal or when I'm running only. I'm planning to take it to Goodyear Autocare for inspection, what could be possible reasons?

if the level dropped 1 cm and did not go down anymore after that, then i wouldn't be worried.
but if the level keeps dropping over the days, then something is wrong. typical innova coolant levels remain stable for many months to over a year.
my guesses would be:
1. you are overheating. perhaps your radiator is so dirty (on the outside, as well as inside?), it can not radiate heat anymore. and how's your fan?
2. leak.

Thanks for the advice! I actually kept note of its level yesterday and today and it looks like it's stabilizing now. I guess it takes a few days for the true level to show up? Some of the coolant was drained kasi when I brought it for repairs about 2 weeks ago so I topped up. But I'll continue to check it because if it goes down below L again I'm taking it to the shop.

errr... what does it do, po?
what advantage does it confer the vehicle?

mine does not have, and it doesn't seem to suffer the worse without it.

Are you referring to engine under cover? Sa casa ako bumili nyan pagka alala ko 6500 bili ko sa casa. Malaking tulong yan para hindi dumumi yung ilalim ng engine bay lalo na kung maputik dinadaanan mo lagi.

For the 4th time. Pundi nanaman yung left break light namin. Yung right going strong pa. Sinong naka remedyo na sa inyo ng ganitong problem? Park light was good dun sa mga napunding breaklight bulb sa left.

check:
loose mounting of the socket, the housing. baka may dumi sa pagitan ng housing and the metal.
dirty contacts?
correct bulb specification?

Okey naman housing dr. d. Wala namang contacting between the metal sa loob. Yes right bulb po. Tomorrow i will upload pics.. Pansin ko na din sa ibang innova to eh 2015 and below. Pero tumagal naman ng 8 months yung bulb na napundi.

8 months only?
perhaps you should try another brand of bulb.
