    Nokya LED NOK9618 Full Install

    Another update. Car has 125,000 miles, so Nokya fogs have 115,000 miles Warranty period is long since expired. I had another voltage regulator failure. I contacted Nokya customer service, to see if I could purchase another voltage regulator. They knew me (I assume by my email address? I...

    2016 - Strong Fuel Smell Inside Cabin

    Another random thought - when I was filling up the car a few days back, the pump didn't stop when the tank was full. Fuel continued to run down the side of the car, until I turned off the lock on the pump nozzle. I can't remember this ever happening to me, in any car, in the last 30+ years. I...

    2016 - Strong Fuel Smell Inside Cabin

    My '16 Corolla LE Eco has 120,000 miles About a year ago, we started noticing an gas/fuel odor inside the cabin (windows up). It's gotten worse over the past year. Car is not throwing any codes, and runs like a clock, so I don't really want to start throwing parts at it, trying to remedy the...

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

    I've put over 10,000 miles on my Corolla since it was reprogrammed. Night and day difference. Drives like a different car. Particularly going up and down inclines.

    2014 Corolla S Transmission Fail afer update

    Hmmm. OP has posted a grand total of one post, and not logged on since. I'm guessing bs post. Or maybe he bought a new Jeep Compass and is sitting on the side of the road, broken down?

    2014 Corolla S Transmission Fail afer update

    Muhammad Khan do you have an update as to what's currently happening with the car. I'm very curious. I have a 2016 Corolla Eco with 83,000 miles. I'm strongly considering trading it before it needs major work.

    How to fix the steering wonder problem on a 2010 corolla.

    I bought my 2010 new, and it had 225K or so, before it was totaled. The only part that was ever replaced (other than normal wear items like plugs, serpentine belt, etc...) on it was the front hubs. I never noticed a wandering problem, but it would {slightly} wear the corner of tires. I took...

    Tread wear on the S Plus Tires..

    It all depends on what brand tires that the car came with. My two previous Corolla's (2005, 2010) came with Continental. Neither car made it to 40K miles before needing replacement tires. My current 2016 Corolla came with Michelin. They lasted 70K miles. I don't see any red flags from...

    New tires recommendation

    I have the same size on my 2016 Eco, and just bought new tires last week. I had 70,000 miles on 3 of the original Michelin's that came with the car. The 4th tire was replaced at 30K when it would no longer hold air, with the cheapest thing I could find at the time. A WalMart "Douglas" brand...

    2010 Corolla only drives in reverse

    Axle, or maybe hub? My 2010 Corolla (5 speed) had like 240,000 miles on it when it was finally wrecked in spectacular fashion. The ONLY problem we ever had with it was the front hubs. They were replaced at about 220,000 miles. I've not changed a CV joint in a Corolla, but I have in other...

    Compatibility advice

    Good luck. First off, you dont mention where you live. I'm in the US. That said... I've got two cars in my backyard now, both 1989 models, that I'm trying to make into one. Its a LOT of work, and I would have been money ahead to have bought one car in operable condition. But that was...

    Compatibility advice

    I don't consider high mileage to be a bad thing on a Corolla, so long as I'm the one who drove it, and I know it was driven/maintained in a sensible manner. My 2010 base Corolla had 225,000 miles when we handed it down to the kid in 2016. There wasn't anything wrong with it; she needed a car...

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

    This totally sux. Scheduled this recall weeks ago, and I took a day off work today to have this recall done. Got there bright and early today, 7:45AM, and was told, "Recall suspended". WTF. I'm a down homer, grew up in a Chevy family. Took me a lot of years to find Toyota's and I'm their...

    2017 XSE Broken Strut

    Broken, in what way? Do you have pics? My 2016 LE ECO sounds awful when I go around a tight turn, or a speed bump. Car has about 65K miles on it now, but it's been noticeable (and getting progressively worse) since around 30K miles. I had a Taurus, probably 4 or 5 years ago, that actually...

    Shrink tube is a great idea. Did you heat it with a heat gun?

    Nokya LED NOK9618 Full Install

    Update: Was pleased to receive this in the mail today: Thumbs up to Nokya for 9-day round trip. Not too shabby at all, especially when the vendor Formula-87 wanted nothing to do with warranty worries. Also, I think I know what happened. We've had a lot of salty roads this winter, and I...

    Nokya LED NOK9618 Full Install

    I hear ya! I only got 4 months (10K miles) out of the factory set, and 15 months (50K miles) out of my first replacement set. I live over on the shore, with lots of wetlands, fog, and really big critters, so I really like having fog lights. But it's starting to get really expensive, and I'm...

    Nokya LED NOK9618 Full Install

    Wow, I can't justify $240.00 for a set of fogs. That's more like it. I sent the old voltage regulator to the manufacturer today, hoping they will stand behind their 2-year warranty. If they don't, this is probably the route I'll go.

    Nokya LED NOK9618 Full Install

    Not off to a good start. Vendor Formula-J87 is offering a discount towards the purchase of a new set. I'm not interested in buying another set of $110 lights that last only one year. Manufacturer website claims 50,000 hour life expectancy. Yeah right...
