    Driver's Door Lock Issue

    do you have a 2nd key to try to see if the remote is the issue? sounds like the remote is the problem, take it apart and look for obvious issues and change the battery.

    2020 Corolla with P195/65R15 tires, what size is the spare?

    i have a 2015 and i bought a full size tire and wheel as i do a lot of driving, screw that donut. it has saved me several times. when i replace the car in a few years if it doesnt have a real tire change set i will get one, a can of fix a flat is garbage. if it has a tub in the trunk the tire...

    Corolla CVT

    no, a CVT is not designed for performance at all, its a medal belt. you keep posting on here about hot rodding your corolla, it will never be fast. nothing about the corolla is designed for performance, its a cheap economy car. you obviously want a faster car so stop dumping your money into your...

    Corolla Head Gasket Decision

    the car isnt worth much, try the sealer and see what happens. if it doesnt fix the issue you can try doing a head gasket yourself just prepare yourself to pay for it if you get over your head. not sure if that is an interference engine but if it is you have to get the timing perfect.

    2015 COROLLA S CVT TURBO KIT

    yeah really, if 9200 is cheap for a transmission i have a bridge to sell you. the trans in my viper was no where near that much. 9200 for a trans on a 20k car is nuts. if mine blows up ill get a new car.

    2014 Steering Wheel Lock hard to unlock, car not starting

    every car with a steering wheel lock can have this issue if it locks in a certain spot. every once in a while mine (non push button) gets very hard to turn so i just turn the wheel hard against the lock to take the pressure off it and the key turns fine.

    HIGHEST MILEAGE 11TH GEN.

    maintenance is easy and some repairs. but some are very complex, like if you get the P2820 code from the trans. but if youre up for rebuilding a CVT and have access to toyotas proprietary computer programs, good luck.

    HIGHEST MILEAGE 11TH GEN.

    2000 is way too soon, esp for synthetic. have an oil analysis done and im sure they will say the oil is fine. i did my coolant at 100k and i put a cup of the new next to a cup of the old and you couldnt tell the difference. i believe toyota pink is recommended for 5 years / 150k miles. cars are...

    HIGHEST MILEAGE 11TH GEN.

    103,000 miles, mostly highway driving. 10,000 mile oil changes. no issues. I follow the toyota maintenance guide and do everything myself. only thing I had toyota do is change the cvt fluid at 100k miles.

    another costly corolla item to worry about

    i hope the costs do go down but they havent changed on the corolla and its another expensive maintenance item to add to the list. cars are hard enough to work on yourself now as it is and most people cant tackle this themselves. most people drive 10-12 thousand miles a year so 10 years down the...

    another costly corolla item to worry about

    as if the CVT trans didnt worry newer corolla owners enough, here is another item. the vane type brake booster. starting in 2014 toyota offered the LE ECO with the valvematic engine that required the brake booster to be replaced every 120k miles. now i do not have an exact quote but the part...

    2015 COROLLA S CVT TURBO KIT

    really? thats the worst thing you could do. its an economy car not a performance car, if you want something faster, buy a faster car. the cvt is not designed to handle stress like a geared trans is. if you put a turbo on it you will likely destroy it and then you will realize its over $7,000 to...
