But does the knock sensor function properly?

Nice! :thumbup1: Obama and Eric Holder want to try and make you and all gun owners wear ID bracelets with transmitting chips in them to transmit your location 24 hour per day! :thumbdown: :mad::furious:

$500 + for one and $400 + for the other, O.E. Toyota axle shafts. Call around to competent auto parts stores like NAPA or Carquest and see what kind of prices they have. Try to avoid the low end stuff as it doesn't tend to last very long.

Welcome to the Corolla Forum! :thumbup::):clap::thumbup1::party::balloon: A noise can be from many different sources. There's no one set answer. An auto repair center should be able to pinpoint the noise pretty quickly. Have you tried that yet?

I concur, which is why I suggested checking for vacuum leaks, which will pinpoint a leaking intake manifold gasket.

You can find a few bazillion of them at this website -> http://www.Car-Part.com

Again, you don't want a CV boot kit. You and an entire new axle shaft. Having a friend do it will provide you exactly zero warranty. CV boots can sometimes seep grease for years and still function just fine. If the CV joints aren't making any clicking noises when you are turning and...

"Axle kit"? If you are referring to a CV boot kit, you do not want to go that route. When a CV boot tears and leaks grease out, it's also allowing road grime/dirt/sand into the CV joint and then just replacing the CV boot, it wont be too terribly long down the road before the CV joint will go...

Keep in mind the DRL's are not designed to be bright with the headlights on as well and if you try to un-engineer their intended purpose and make them bright all the time, this will increase the load on that circuit by quite a bit and either blow fuses or start fires.

When the brake fluid level in the master cylinder drops it can be from one of the brake lines rupturing and leaking fluid, which should be immediately investigated. When there's a brake fluid leak it can result in a situation where you press on the brake pedal, but the car doesn't slow down...

Good grief. :(

Unfortunately, it's whatever the market will bear. Personally I refuse to pay inflated prices for a four cylinder economy car. If more folks would take this stance, the prices would come down. $5,000 +++ for a 150,000 + mile, tired economy car? Right. No way Jose. :thumbdown:

Here is a website where you can find one of those bazillion Corolla's for sale at a reasonable price - http://www.cars.com/

There are a bazillion Corolla's for sale. No worries. This provides you the opportunity to find another out of those bazillions with lower mileage and a better price. :thumbsup: :) This is one reason why a Corolla shouldn't cost a lot, because there are so many of them out there to choose...

Doing this will reduce the performance and fuel economy of your Corolla, as it adds weight! :blink::laughing::D:lol:

http://www.Cart-Part.com The above website is an Internet based database of thousands of automotive junkyards across the United States. You will not find the exact part listed that you are looking for, as there is no way to list all parts available on a car. What you have to do is search for a...

This is one of the funniest skits of all time. If you've never seen this before you are in for a real treat. :thumbsup: :D :lol: :laughing:

Sounds like a personal problem. :thumbsup: :blink: :D :lol:

If the brake fluid level in the master cylinder drops, it can mean a leak somewhere, which can lead to very dangerous brake system failure. Brake fluid levels should always be maintained to the recommended full marks on the master cylinder. To check brake pads, pull the wheels and visually inspect.
