We spent the weekend in Pampanga with the Fortuner and the drive was very pleasant. Yesterday though, we saw a 3.0V fortuner installed with.....Bullbars hehehe. They looked similar to the ones installed in L300 vans. Wanted to snap a photo but the reflexes were a bit slow and the driver was in upak mode. Let me say that it looked "different" :D hehehe

Are bullbars still in? They ruin the looks of the vehicle.

sobra naman ang toyota pag nag-increase ulit sila. magdadalawang isip ako na kumuha na lang ng alternative na unit. php 100k na ang na-increase sa unit since i first made a reservation. baka kasi pag nakuha ko na 4x2 d4d ko around php 1.5M na ang presyo which is the initial price of the 4x4.

Guys! You know what? I found it questionable for e-VAT to apply it to cars again assuming that it will be approved by SC. Isn't it that the govenment already finalize the taxation scheme of the cars? Like from x amount to x amount = x% of tax to be added? Then if it is finalized already for cars, why are they still adding e-VAT to it? Haaay...

Mukhang dumarami na ang nakakuha ng kanilang unit. Konti na lang ang nagpo-post dito. Bising-busy yata sa pag-iisip ng image enhancement at sa pagda-drive, hehehe. Anyway, enjoy your new rides and share anything that could help us, Fortuner owners, deal with the peculiarities this vehicle comes up with. Drive safely, boys!

*kent... mine's a 2.5G variant, ; so far, wala pa naman akong na-experience na hard/ failed start-up, even after a long drive form QC to Tagaytay and back. Anyway, will let u know if something comes up. Keep us posted on this problem also, and it's solution, as per your dealer's feedback. Thanks!

My unit is a 3.0V. Thank heavens this problem hasn't happened to me yet. Have you checked your fuel filter for the accumulation of water? 'Di kaya, without knowing it, you filled up with diesel that's laced with water?

WBR,

yeah.. i guess so. It's not aesthetically beautiful, but surely protects it from
accidental and deliberate(!!) bumps. Depends on your geographical location and use, though. The upside of the Fortuner's design is that you can rig it for either offroad or city drive image, and will still look good, depending on your taste and preference (subdued to garish). Just a thought....

I'm not so sure about the production date of the current D4D engine fitted on both the Fortuner and Innova, but i think it's about 1999ish(??). If this is the case, then this certain model is relatively proven. It could be a problem in the batch of ECU chip, or some other usual mechanical problems outside the pathway of the engine's electronic controls (i.e. fuel filter, poor diesel fuel quality, like you've mentioned), or other glitches which can only be found on the IMV trio.

FYI and "nice-to-know": the D4D just became more advanced with the new D4D 180 Clean Power Concept engine with D-CAT (Diesel Clean Advanced Technology) package, made available on the new Avensis model.
