    fake engine noise on 2015 Corolla LE ?

    I doubt it has some system like Lambo's or Lexus that pipes engine noise into the cabin. I think they just just a crappy sounding muffler on it.

    fake engine noise on 2015 Corolla LE ?

    From what I understand, the CVT is designed to have the simulated shift points to make it feel like a normal transmission, rather than the drone that some of the older CVTs made. I've heard complaints about Nissan 's original CVT. I'm not sure if you can do anything about the engine noise. I...

    The problem was resolved when I had the dealership adjust the position of the headlights.

    How to lock trunk release

    My Civic has a keyhole right by the trunk release in the floor. I haven't seen anything on the Corolla.

    You want the fogs on without the headlights being on? I don't think you can easily do it.

    2015 Corolla S Premium Bugs

    The paddle shifter is worthless. Click them whenever and however you want, the car will automatically shift for you before it over revs anyways.

    My best tank yet!

    Wow, no wonder you try to get every mile out of a gallon.

    Did I get ripped off when I bought my 2014 Corolla? Are these miles/gallons normal?

    I use Shell gas exclusively in my Civic and get over the factory rated mileage for my car, and that's with my heavy foot driving it. In our Corolla, I mostly use Speedway gas just because it's closer than the Shell station. I never search out the cheapest gas, I learned that lesson a long time ago.

    Do you sit in traffic stopped alot. We do almost all city(small town) driving and even with winter morning warmups, we were getting 23-24 mpg. It's closer to 30 now that the weather is better.

    splashing gas noise

    I haven't noticed it in our Corolla but I don't drive it much. My 2008 Civic has done this since I got it new though. I'll listen for it in the Corolla next time I drive it. I wouldn't worry about it.

    2014 Corolla - Headlights Seriously Too Bright

    I forgot to report back. I had the dealership adjust them at my last service and they seem to be much better now.

    Should I turn in my '15 ECO?

    I could be wrong, but doesn't the S model have the same horsepower as all other models?

    Wow, talk about hypermiling. I don't think I have the right type of roads or enough restraint to get anywhere near that kind of mileage.

    S Plus Uncomfortable Seat

    Sorry about your issues. I'm 6'1" and 215 lbs, abut the same size as you and they are comfortable enough for me. I've driven it 3-4 hours straight on a road trip with no issues. I've never checked to see if the seats have a lumbar adjustment but I would try different configurations if I were you.

    Top speed limited to 114 mph?

    I'd guess the Camaro is his weekend car and he has a new Corolla as a daily driver. DjAnnex- your parents are only trying to help you. I had a cafe bike when I was young and dumb, when I think back to some of the stuff I pulled on that thing, I'm lucky to still be here. I got rid of it when my...

    The only time our car gets that kind of mileage is if we're doing 45-50 mph. Any faster and it goes down, anytime we stop and have to start again, it goes down. You are getting incredible gas mileage!

    Don't trust the onboard computers about your MPG's, it's usually off by a few anyways. I never pay attention to the distance to empty stat either. I figure it calculates that number off the current MPG average. Fill your tank, drive your car. Try to fill up at the same station and pump next...
