If you're gonna get non-oem then just take it to Discount Tire/America's Tire and ask them. Unless its for a thicker tire to get a more comfortable ride, I don't suggest wasting your money on bling/showoff stuff. & Besides, cars w/ that stuff get stolen/broken into more often.

How many miles are you at? Or was it tampered w/? Already have a new engine?

"New Toyotas" not my old GM venture Toyota.

It's because i wasnt listening to people, not the other way around. The previous owner was cheap and whipped the car hard; sold it to me almost as lemon. I know a lot of Toyota owners that are brutal to their cars, especially when theyre about to sell it. Yes i meant oil pump. Oil light comes on...

I have the same problem. The old ones were RWD btw. Anyways, i lose about a quart of oil every 3K due to age and design of this generation engine. These engines will last long time, perhaps to a max of 225K. But of 98-02 Corolla, cannot be driven rough. That gen. was a joint-venture between GM &...

My 1998 Corolla 4-spd. auto. 120hp is loosing 3 quarts of RP-HPS 5W-30 Full Synthetic oil every 3K miles or every time i high rev., out the tailpipe as white smoke. I bought it used @95K miles. Mine didn't come w/ the manual so i was clueless for the most part. When i first got it, i switched to...

Have a qualified and experienced mechanic you trust check it. Hell, have it checked by three different mechanics just to be sure. Check to see if the car has been modified. Does it have a new engine or transmission? If so, what is the mileage of it/them? My AZ DMV said the Title reported...

I just had a brake fluid flush yesterday and I told them to put DOT4 brake fluid when the cap of the fluid resevoir in the engine compartment says to put DOT3 only. My car is at 105,000miles I bought it used a 1.5 years ago at 98,000 miles. It is a 4 speed transmission automatic. I think it has...
