Toyota Hilux Revo V | 2.8L 1GD | Practical Owner's Review at Shandur Top |

[UAHMAD]

No brother. You missed my point.

I just meant to say that driving a pick up truck having these KD and GR engines have made our people to believe that these are just like sedan cars while ignoring the real purpose of a utility truck.

Of course, 3L and 5L are sluggish. In my opinion these could have been improved had Toyota continued with the L series and didn't switch to KD, GD etc.

That was my whole point.

Variants say gadgets ka faraq parta hai. Comfort ka nahi. Hilux 50 crore ka bhi ho rahay ga daala hi. Aap nay paisay lagaye allah aap ko aur day lekin aap yeh paisay prado par lagatay to comfort milta. Thai wala revo soft suspension wala ho ga lekin thailand walay itni overloading nahi kartay jitni Pakistani kartay hain. Yahan ka daala us hisaab say bana hua hai. 5 laakh ki purni mercedes bhi kharid lain to woh 2 crore k imported daalay sy ziada comfortable ho gi because it was designed for comfort.

When I was in Karachi, I could set it correctly. I paid for that data and also tooling.

It takes an “aqalmandi waree approach” infact thats default for any kind of injection pump.

Hiring cheapo charsi with tools and then complaining seems like your alley.

[consigliori]

Aap Karachi mein nahin, issi liye tou yeh fasaad barpa huwa hai @Xulfiqar bhai! Jis din aap wapis tashrif awar farmayen gay, ussi din awam ka samandar apnay "pump" aur "nozzles" lay ker aap kay hazoor "surtaal baja layen gay".

2 of my neighbors own Revos. When new both were high on bari gaari ka Nasha and said ke iss se achi gaari koyi hai hi nahi. Now both have bought alternate cars to use when family is with them.

Oodbalow bhai, I have seen your youtube videos. These are interesting and I really enjoyed these.

On a serious note; relevant to the subject above, I too own hilux and while traveling on off roads like the badgoi route or from buni to shandur top, I normally reduce tyres air pressure. This is due to two reasons: 1. It increases the grip off road and 2. It reduces fatigue and cushions both the steering and the suspension. For this I keep a tyre pressure guage with me.

I thought that I should share it with you since you are a frequent traveler to these areas.

One thing that I have also noticed is that the tyre pressure which measures 29 psi in Chitral becomes 36 psi when you reach Shandur. In this case experts, advise to reduce the tyre pressure to 29. 36 psi anyway makes your ride very harsh. I normally run air pressure between 20-25 psi depending on driving conditions. Increasing it again to 29 when on motorway/highway.

[Xulfiqar]

Hardcore trekkers keep an inflator or tank of nitrogen for this reason.

Dont forget to restart the engine every few thousand feet of elevation.

[oodbalow]

Bro thanx a lot for detailed reply and watching videos
Bhai Pakistani Revo is more “Khatarnak” on plain roads…… all those friends who have changed the shocks r now somehow happy.
In my August/Sept trip, Revo was fully loaded with luggage…… guzara ho gaya…… in April trip the rear bed was completely empty with almost no luggage….. uchaal uchaal k maar dia zalim ne.
If u deflate the tyres to 24 Psi…. Phir bhi zor ka jhatka lagta hai dheray se……

[oodbalow]

Yeh Pakistan hai….. idher hospital mein patient ko oxygen nahi milti aap Nitrogen ki baat kartay hein bhai sahab

[oodbalow]

Agreed. I bought a Revo in 2018; the early 2.8D model, it was later sold. But the very next day when I took it home, there was a puddle of oil underneath and upon inspection, the front right side shock absorber was found leaking oil. It was replace under warranty. But chances of anything happening in Japanese new vehicles are almost zero.

Toyota vehicles, assembled in Pakistan, inherently have best engineering to begin with since these are not engineered locally. But definitely assembling as well as parts procured locally has issues. I 100% agree and this is not just speculation but after experiencing buying locally assembled vehicles for more than 30 years.

We have been supporting these local assemblers from our hard earned taxed money for ages. We should boycott them now or are we waiting for something as happened in Murree?
