Toyota Innova Owners & Discussions [continued]

[hugobo]

guys, does anyone of you here tried replacing your coolant reservoir? how much did it cost you? oem ba or replacement? i am from southern mindanao, i would really appreciate if you can share some inputs especially to stores where i can source replacement or surplus parts..the original one costs at least 8,000 pesos. by the way, mine is a 2005 d4d, one of the pioneering innovas. thanks in advance..

Papasa ba yan sa emissions test kapag ginalaw ang catalytic converter?

hello mga sirs...

Ask ko lang po kung saan makakabili ng replacement parts para doon sa pull up lever (not sure the exact term) ng backdoor ng Innova 2006 model. Napansin ko kasi lately, pag-angat ng door, bumabagsak sya agad. Parang nawala na yung pressure nya.

Aside from casa po, baka may recommended shop kayo where I could get this for a reasonable price.

Thanks!

Boss try mo po dito. Nakita ko lang sa net baka maka-help.

what happened to your coolant reservoir?

[erwinjason76]

hello fellow innova owners!

I just had my 5K (5830) PMS (still mineral oil, replaced oil filter, cleaned the air filter, sprayed silicon at the windows) at Toyota Otis and I discovered during the PMS that Yna's (my innova) left front shock is leaking already. She is VVTi M/T E variant. We just got her last May 2010 at sira na agad ang shock! well, covered naman sa warranty so walang gastos pero hassle pa rin!

Actually, It was me who discovered that and not the mechanic. Ako pa nagpakita sa kanya then sabi ko paki inspect na lahat ng shocks. I also observed na medyo leaning sa left si Yna kaya he inspected that too. He just made a recommendation to the service people about the shock and adjustment sa body height.

I went to the service advisor to have Yna scheduled and sabi nila iiwan daw yung kotse ng 2-3days! wow hassle talaga! Imagine, 3 months palang yung auto ko may ganto na! wtf!

anyways, i have no choice but to submit to their procedure pero sana noon pa, after receiving similar reports about certain parts from dissatisfied customers, ni-reject na nila sa planta yung mga sablay na pyesa nila. Kung sa Amerika to baka nag-recall na agad sila.

Ganun pa man, kudos and thanks to this forum who forewarned me about these immediate possible woes!!! Like leaking shocks, leaking fuel tank, busted fuel tank cover, fuel pump for D4D engines, etc.

Hugobo, I dont really know if Cotabato is near in your area but I have A good friend in that area which has Auto parts (surplus or Bnew). They are known in Mindanao. Just look for Padlan Auto Parts. Baka meron dun ng hinahanap mo.

[Bononoy]

* pat louie and kurtsm - maraming salamat sa tips nyo. I'll try muna siguro mag-canvass sa Banawe.

Mabuhay ang Tsikot!

Nangyari yan sa akin dati. Na-atrasan din ako sa parking lot.di ko alam kung sino gumawa. Eto yung pics.

Tinangal ko lang yung screw then pushed the bumper back starting from tail-light up to the wheel well. Ano extent ng damage.

sir thanks sa reply. ganyang ganyang nga yung nangyari sa akin. may scratch ng konti mga 1 inch. nai-align ko na yung lower part by pushing back to the clips pero yung upper part na malapit sa tail light di ko maibalik. medyo matigas kaya hindi makuha sa tulak. gusto nga i try na baklasin yung buong rear bumper eh.

yung sayo ba sir tinanggal mo rin buong bumper para mai-align ulit?

anyway sir thanks again for your info.

[SIZE=3]I got my Toyota Innova Sport Runner A/T Diesel last May 27, 2010. My problem is this, ung tip ng rear doors ko nagagasgas dun sa fender overrider nya pag umaandar. Pero pag nakahinto naman, di sya sumasayad. Pati ung overrider nagagasgas din. Nilagyan ko n lnag muna ng soft velcro para di na tumama ung tip ng rear door sa fender overrider. Magkabilang pinto tumatama. I am so dissapointed kasi akala ko pag kumuha ako ng OEM na Sport Runner na may fender overrider and skirts eh di na sya magkakaproblema, eto pa nangyari sa akin. I hope other Sport Runner owners can share if they have the same experiences. If ever ibabalik ko sa Toyota Makati, sobrang hassle kasi pipintahan uli and I'm very sure ipapaiwan nila ung car for couple of days. Kaya ka nga bumibili ng new car to prevetn this kind of hassle. [/SIZE]
[SIZE=3]Sa sobrang mass production na ng Innova di ko alam kung pano pa nila na-hahandle ang Quality Assurance. If this is what they call quality for Toyota, then I feel disgusted with Toyota Quality.[/SIZE]

hello fellow innova owners!

(my innova) left front shock is leaking already. She is VVTi M/T E variant. We just got her last May 2010 at sira na agad ang shock!

My Innova has racked up only 20k kilometers and Toyota already replaced two shock absorbers due to leaking, one in front and one at the back. Good thing its still under warranty.

Thing is I only use the car within the metro, mostly Makati to Greenhills vice versa, where the roads are relatively smooth. Go figure.

[saipeme]

salamat po sa reply nyo sir saipeme, i was kinda hoping you will be the one who will reply sa inquiry ko, since i had read sa recent posts na same place pala tayo,

[vvvaccord]

napansin ko nga parang di na quality ang toyota specially sa innova. my moms innova changed both front shocks and the hydraulic of the door in the back good thing it is still under guarantee.. im bias with toyota but it is starting to turn me off. i really like to get a innova but for sure before i get one i will think carefully.

I have an Innova 2010 G Model Jade Green Metallic M/T. So far, no problem at all. I got my INNOVA last Feb. 12, 2010 and got my 10,000km pms on a regular maintainance basis. Siguro swertehan lang.

[Louie_18]

Just got home from Tagaytay, first time naming ibinyahe si Innova ng puro paakyat na road. Napansin ko medyo hirap siya sa akyatan lalo na yung sa may PNP academy area, I had to step on the gas pedal more than I thought was enough to climb that road. Anyway I will test it again after ng 1000km PMS on Friday kung may improvement sa hatak. Thanks!!!

[kepefei]
