Mura nga yan.

5 pesos difference din sa diesel dito sa Manila.

Swerte mga taga los banos.

Swerte din sa traffic sir leonleon [emoji23] Lalo na kapag weekends.

Just for sharing

Our Innova's FC 2.5 E Dsl MT

Top up from Orange Warning

500 x 39.60 = 12.62L

Total distance covered = 132.2 KM (orange warning lit up)

10.49km/l mixed driving

I also do 5 minute engine warm up.

And for the share also it's christmas. Yung mga taga South or yung mga dadayo ng South. Mura po ang diesel sa Los Banos. Phoenix

my critique,
do away with the 5 minute warm-up (in your garage, i presume), and better your km/li numbers.
5 minutes on the road will warm the engine up just as effectively, while covering significant distance as well.

really, warming up the engine before starting the trip, does no one, including nature, any good.

I experienced po kasi na iba ang tunog and hatak if galing from cold start. Lalo na sa kanto namin mejo inclined. Basta naman bumaba na ng kaunti ang menor after cold start dun ko na pinapaandar. No issue regarding sa hatak and tunog ng makina

Sabi ng beterano kong mekaniko kelangan daw hayaan muna na mag circulate ang langis bago patakbuhin para maiwasan na magkaskasan bakal sa bakal sa loob ng makina. Yun daw ang nagiging dahilan ng pagkakaroon ng metal residue na nagiging dahilan ng premature na pagkasira ng makina gaya ng loss compression.

Sa overnight daw kse na nakatengga yung sasakyan, sa umaga nasa baba yung langis tapos malamig pa yung mga bakal sa loob ng makina. Lalo na kung mahigit isang araw nakatengga yung sasakyan.

Ang ginagawa ko hinahayaan ko muna umakyat ng isang guhit yung temp bago ko patakbuhin. Mga 1 minute cguro habang iniikot ko yung kotse para tingnan din yung mga gulong. Wala naman din mawawala kung sumunod sa advice ng marunong which I think makes sense naman sinasabi nya.

Depends sa dealer pero it could go from 5k to 15k. In our case kasi with the Touring Sport sabi nila magbibigay daw sila ng at least 15k discount para lang mapapayag kami sa kanila na lang kumuha, in which sa kanila nga naman kami kumuha. Tas nung processing na sa kanila upon more detailed info 5k lang pala na cash discount kasi yung 10k daw yun na yung for the registration, CTPL, etc. Pretty cheeky move, pero okay lang at least meron discount kahit papano.

Choose your dealer carefully. Don't be lazy to get a quote from different dealers as it means the difference of you getting the best deal from them or them getting the best deal from you. Wag din matakot na mag-back out sa deal kapag biglang binago ang usapan. Hindi sila kawalan, daming dealers diyan.

I got 60k discount sa touring sport

Hi! We recently bought an Innova, got it 2 weeks ago. Napansin ko lang na prang hindi ganon ka-isolated ung cabin ng Innova from outside noises. I frequently use a revo and a crosswind, compared to these older cars parang mas napapasok ng outside sound ung Innova. Is this normal?

Yes! Normal yan sir.. Hopefully di malakas engine vibration mo *1000 rpm like ours..

Di iyan maintindihan ng ibang forumers here kahit pa anung explanation. They will tell you na refine naman ang new GD engine, maybe you have high and silly expectations, etc.. na its like almost they will tell to your face, you dont know anything about cars... Duh!

Contributing factor sa innova’s poor nvh is the road biased tire and lower ride height.. parang ordinary kotse na ramdam mo yung kalsada.. sabayan pa ng engine vibration na uncontrollable..

Mapapaisip ka talaga na parang me tinipid sila sa build quality, pero ganun talaga eh.. unlike its siblings na fort at hilux na top notch ang NVH.

Anyway Other else, thumbs Up.. reliability, comfort, space, power, maintenance... innova panalo!

What is the best gear oil and differential oil for Toyota innova 2013 manual transmission and how many liters each?

TIA

i just drove to the gas station and used what they had on stock at that time.
it was years ago. it was probably not expensive, because i don't remember the exact cost.
it was cheaper than an oil change, for trans and differential oil combined.

That's a lot! I really do feel that the dealer exploited us.

Actually, they even tried to back-down on their offer of 15k discount and just turn it into 5k discount since we were getting the Blue Mica Metallic. They said the unit is hard to come by because people usually get the other colors. I just said that we should follow the deal that was settled before committing to the dealer that we'll get a unit from them. Fortunately, they obliged and the discount was still 15k. Though if ever they really are giving me 10k instead of the 15k we talked about, I will be sourcing the unit from another dealer instead. Stuff like this just pisses me off.

I supposed to get an 80k discount if I would choose a silver color coz that's their last unit. But I opted to get the freedom white. Bdw, my agent is also a college buddy of mine hence, the sweet deal

Meron sa aguila glass replacement lang. Wala raw sila ng original/OEM parts. Pinasok ko na lang sa casa para original parts din. Sabi ng casa nasa 20k raw yung rear windshield with defogger.

Update lang mga bossing.

Had casa replaced the rear windshield via Peoples General Insurance. Total bill is ~30k but paid only 3,900.

Ok talaga service ng Toyota North Edsa. Maayos kausap at bilis umaksyon pati insurance approved agad no questions asked basta bayad yung prremium at na remit agad ng ahente sa head office yung payment.

Maayos din yung pagkakagawa parang walang nangyari back to original. Pati pala yung mga rubber sa gilid kasama pinapalitan at sagot din ng insurance.

Yung natipid ko may sukli pa para sa.wrap around vkool tint OEM series.

Satisfied customer.

Guys, I scanned this thread, parang ako lang ang gumagamit ng Shell Helix Ultra 5W-40 Diesel Fully Synthetic motor oil. My odo now is 60k automatic 2010 diesel.

I am attached to Shell brand. Ok ba itong 5W-40 Helix Ultra? This is the most expensive in the brand line-up for diesel at Shell. I saw someone here who posted using 5W-30, pero wala namang 5W-30 nowadays sa Shell. It's just 5W-40.

I change oil every 10k. I watched ChrisFix and Scotty on YT, both of them said changing oil every 5k is waste of money if it's fully synthetic.

Again, ok ba ang 5W-40 for Innova Diesel 60k odo?

ilang months to reach 10,000km?

[EL Chicane]

Inabot din ng 10 months yung 10k. City driving lang.

First time ko kase mag oil change sa labas. Sa casa kase sinasabi lang Genuine Toyota Motor Oil, hindi na sinasabi yung specs.

Saka may bad experience ako dyan sa Toyota Alabang. Sabi ko Synthetic ang ilagay noong 40k. Hindi ko na ni-review yung job order hanggang matapos kasi tiwala ako casa eh. Aba, nung binalik ko na after 10k saka ko lang na-review na Mineral pala yung nilagay! Isipin mong tinakbo ko ng 10k yung Mineral.

Nag-reklamo ako dun sa service advisor, alibi lang sinabi sakin, Mineral daw yung inenter sa computer pero Synthetic daw talaga yung nilagay. Niloko pa ako para hindi na lumaki yung issue. Kaya sa labas nako nagpa oil change, atleast nakikita ko yung langis mismo na nilalagay.

i have been changing my oil at petron hecho derecho, for the last 10 years, since my warranty expired..
off-the-shelf mineral oil every 5k KM.
no waiting. no issues.

[EL Chicane]

Yes, but is 5W-40 okay for Innova?

[ParticleX]

The rear camera is not waterproof, if it is mounted outside, it might get damaged shortly.

I have been thinking to mount it inside the car under the brake light in the tailgate, my dash cam is still on delivery, I can't test to see what image will be captured.
