Ang haba na pala nitong thread (3 parts na)
My Innova is now reaching it's 6th year and I'm thinking of replacing my old original front windshield wipers which are about to reach it's most useful function. Im getting old so does my eyesight...he he he. Nobody's wants to drive with streaking windshield and blurry vision, right? so, what brand do you recommend for the wiper replacements? your inputs are highly appreciated. thanks. Happy/safe driving guys...cheers.

sir bosch any wiper will do basta same size as old. sir 6 yrs is too long for a tropical country like ours. 2 yrs po malutong na yan. i personally like those made by bosch saka yung NYK/ NYG ba yun?

i need to put step boards on my ride fro the kids kaso pumapangit ang tindig ng innova, para kasing malapad masyado. me alm ba kayong slim look o same lang lahat ng yan?

I dont think so sir, activate lang pretensioners pag me collision and dun lang mag emit ng burning smell. ABS naman pulsing action on your pedal on hard braking kung umamoy man brake pads sa pag stop mo yun. dun sa nag post ng question ano ba amoy? kung parang burnt rubber your belts might be too tight kaya me ganun amoy. saka naka recirculate ba vents mo o open? kung parang parang kuryente might be brake pads maaring needs cleaning or adjusting.

ganun nga din sir pagkakaintindi ko sa manual. Sir do i need to adjust the belt for that or normal lang yun as part of breaking in kasi first time ko lang napatakbo yung sasakyan namin ng ganun kabilis and yung odometer nya ay nasa 6k+ plang? naka circulate po yung vent namin that time and cruising po ako nun nung naamoy yung parang burning smell.TIA

- abnormal engine and clutch components wear
- pulls big end of rod out of shape
- wipes out bearings
- potential for over revving and "bouncing " the valvetrain

never uses the gearbox/ engine to slow the car, Brake pads are alot cheaper than an over revved engine/valvetrain.......

Agree with this ^^. You may use engine braking when going down long and steep roads but make sure to match your engine revs to the speed (blip the throttle while downshifting) to avoid undue stress on your drive train. It's sure nice to hear the engine roar when you downshift ala schumacher but remember that his car has a computer to do the blipping and that his engine gets rebuilt after each race (or each season?)

Yung innova namin sir dapat sobrang lapit saka gumagana ang remote. Nahihiya ako minsan na dapat tabi ko pa ang innova saka ma control minsan nga dapat sa side pa ako ng innova saka ko ma remote pag nasa likod ako dapat itaas ko pa ang key. Bago naman po ang battery. Recommend ng Casa papalitan ng bagong key worth 10k+ . They didn't even check the sensor di ko rin alam saan located.

May ganun po talaga... minsan kasi sa freq yun. baka yun freq ng remote mo eh malapit sa mga freq ng gamit ng mga site, pwede din ganun. yun civic ko dati ganyan din lalo na pag nasa makatimed ako halos idikit ko na sa pinto yun remote ng alarm ko... hahaha!

Bosch is the stock wiper for Innova, you can get it from most Auto Supply stores. If you look closely on the wiper it has a stamp "NWB" on the wiper body.

6 thou na odo mo? tapos na brake in nun. try mo check belts dapat pwede sya gumalaw by 1/2 to 3/4 inch. pag walang galaw too tight sya. check mo din sa may front fender well, baka may loose panel na pwede mag rub sa tires pag high speed.

mga bos, ano ba maganda brand ng alarm with central locking na compatible para sa mga innova?and also how much kaya usually ang prices, sa net kasi,prices ranges from 1300 and above kaso baka di ito compatible sa innova and probably wala pa dito ang labor cost...thanks guys..hope to hear from you soon..

sir subukan mo ang Code Alarm, parehong brand po pero ibang model eto sa naka install sa mga Mitsubishi Pajero Field Master, so far wala pa naman palya ang pagkaka install sa innova j unit, installed by toyota dagupan for warranty reasons, 1yr pa lang nung unit nung pinalagyan ko, now on its 3rd yr. still the sensor activates in 12meter radius, reprogrammable frequency, medyo may kamahalan nga lang pero sulit po, nakalimutan ko lang po kung ano yung exact model # nya.
