    Blend door noise?

    I think it might be coming from behind the gear itself.. that whole assembly is labeled as the servo.. pretty expensive as well

    Blend door noise?

    This has been driving me nuts lately.. whenever the blend door is moved I get a weird rattle. It's not extremely loud but noticeable as long as the music isn't loud. Is the blend door actuator below the white gear? I've never worked on anything like this before.. Is this normal? Any ideas...

    Annoying noises..

    Thank you for the response! The car has right around 55k on it. I'll look at the struts when I dig into it.. However (at least with my other vehicles that have had strut issues) isn't the noise evident when just doing turns in general? Not certain cases like I'm seeing? I suppose every one...

    Annoying noises..

    My 2014 Corolla is just out of warranty and I have a flurry of annoying noises. Just wondering if anyone has/can explain these, and possible fixes. Cold weather start up rattle (below freezing temp)- This only happens in the winter and usually a cold start. Rattle for maybe 1 second right...

    HIGHEST MILEAGE 11TH GEN.

    Bingo. I've owned my Corolla a little less than 1.5 years.. put on 40k miles.. Ive put it in sport maybe 3 times just to see what it's like lol. Everyone can have different perceptions of what a car is to them.. to me my car is strictly a tool for my commute that gets good mpg and hopefully...

    Spring cleaning!

    Just a background.. bought this 2014 S last January with 18k miles. I commute 100+ miles a day and needed a mileage machine. It currently sits at 55k, love the car. Although, as a DD I don't really give it the attention I give my other vehicles from a cleaning perspective. Now that winter is...

    Tire Recommendations?

    I have a 2014 S (17's) and in August/September my factory tires were shot at around 36k miles. Fast forward to now I'm sitting at 52K and my replacement tires (Cooper Zeon RS3) look like they will most likely be bald by the end of the summer.. which would put me at 30k for the life of the...

    front and back end creaking sound

    Keep us updated on this. Recently noticed in the past month or two that I'm getting a light scraping noise, front and rear (intermittent), also when slowly turning and usually a bump being involved. I got my tires rotated about a month ago and am thinking it could be the dust shields. I did...

    Most of us Probably have a "Recall" (CVT)

    Had my appointment Monday sometime (I just dropped it off Sunday night).. by 9:30 am I got a call from the service department saying it was all done. Nothing wrong with it.. just needed to install the new software. Thought it was a little quick but hey, they got it done. Picked it up after...

    Should I cancel my extended warranty?

    Fine print lists what isn't covered. Which is mainly suspension components and other common wear items. The warranty is not through a Toyota dealer. I am in the process of getting a refund quoted...which I need to get a notarized mileage amount for.

    Should I cancel my extended warranty?

    I bought my 2014 Corolla S in December with 19k miles. It's now June and I'm right around 33k (commute 100 miles/day). When I purchased the car, I fell into the extended warranty trap as it was only ~$25 a month extra. The warranty is 4 year/120k. I will most likely hit the 120k before the 4...

    Most of us Probably have a "Recall" (CVT)

    Called my dealer today and their response was that the recall wasn't actually fixing the issue at hand. Hopefully it's nothing major and they can get a new recall out shortly. I'm still at low miles so I'm not too worried about it. Has there been a history of these CVT's going down prematurely?

    How many miles do you have so far??

    Hello all! New to the forum here and new to Corolla's as well. I commute 100 miles a day for work and our Ford Edge and my F150 weren't cutting it for gas mileage. In December I picked up a 2014 Corolla S and am loving it! Bought it with 18k and it now has 29k on it. Winter MPG's were...
