    Medyo off topic but please indulge me with this question. Thanks, guys.
    Definitely it will help alot in minimizing future damages to your turbo.

    OT: i had a 97 gen 2 pajero and for 7 years, i never did any of the turbo cool down routine and nothing happened to my turbo. at times, i even run for 2 hours straight on both highways and hills and then when i arrive at my destination, i simply shut down the engine without any cool down. turbo still purred when i sold the car recently

    saw plenty of fortuners in alabang area kanina, most of them 4x2 d4d. dalawa nga katabi ko sa parking area. while driving naman, siguro every 5 to 10 mins may nakakasalubong ako. tama nga dealer ko, mas marami ngang diesel versions ang iri-release kesa sa gas.:car:

    I think this a deliberate ploy by Toyota, to sell more of their higher-profit D4D engines as well as to allow it to attain economies of scale. I wonder if its the same case with the Hilux?

    Do you mean Toyota Manila Bay Inc? Medyo hirap diyan since its a Metrobank owned dealer therefore only relatives/associates/friends/esp. clients ng Metrobank ang pwede makasama sa allocation ng shipments nila at wala ng iba.

    Oh no! Watch out for that dealer. Confirmed NO accessories/IHF/IH_Insurance, NO UNIT RELEASE, yang dealer na yan! Tread with extreme caution or you might end up disappointed and frustrated in the end.

    Buying a Fortuner nowadays is like a guessing game when are you trully gonnaget your unit? They tell you in X months you'll get the car since you are Xth in line. Does it really matter anymore? hehehe

    The RP 3.0V has LSD. Yung 2.7G and 2.5G ang wala 'coz they're both 4x2.
