    Transmission will not change out of park

    I have a 2010 Corolla, and this morning the gear would not shift out of park, though the lever moves freely. I checked the transmission fluid and it seems low, but I don't know enough to tell if that's the problem. What might the issue be?

    Complete Transmission Flush - Trying To Get Proper Fluid Level

    I did a complete flush and filter change in my 2011's transmission, and now I'm having difficulty reading the level of the new fluid on the dipstick. I know there is a cold and a hot marking for fluid level, and that the engine is supposed to be idling during the check, but I'm getting mixed...

    2007 2.3 Torque Converter Code

    Hello, I have a check engine light on. All the code readers I’ve had plugged in say it’s some sort of torque converter code. After I took it to a mechanic, their response was it was just a dirty valve and it was fine to drive as long as I wanted. The other option was to open up the trans and...

    Fuel filter and transmission filter/fluid changes

    I have a 2015 Toyota Corolla S. How often does the fuel filter and CVT transmission fluid and filter need to be changed? From what I can tell, the transmission fluid is a "lifetime" fluid, whatever that means. But wouldn't the filter still need to be changed? And the same for the fuel filter...

    Hard shift from 1st to 2nd in 2013 Corolla S (Automatic)

    Sometimes after warming up my 2013 Corolla S, when I start to drive, I get a hard shift from 1st to 2nd gear. The car juts forward real fast. Sometimes I don't let car warm up all the way, but I try not to just start the car, and drive off right away. But the hard shift is more noticeable when I...

    2001 Toyota Corolla automatic transmission flush and filter change

    Hey all I recently changed the trans fluid on my corolla and the trans filter. I made a video showing how I did it, and showed an easy way to get the stupid rubber gasket to line up all the holes without having to use any sealant or anything. This should work for the 3 speed (though it will be a...
