I think you all notice. That hood gets it badly. That's the only thing that needs the clear plastic cover. I may do mine. Forget the rest.

1998 Mazda 626. The salesman decided to be rude and conflicting. Said: You drove that old car for 18 years? I told him: Don't worry. This one should last longer. He got this weird contorted look on his face.

From what you describe. I know this car wash. In my town. It is not touchless. I stay away from it for that reason. You will get tons of swirling (scratches) on your clear coat. Even the touchless is rather tough on wax/polish. Removes it rather quickly. What removes clear coat is failing to wax...

Thirty Six years ago. I remember, vividly, test driving a new Corolla. You wouldn't believe the number of times I have kicked myself for not buying that car. A few years later. I bought a new 4x4 Toy Truck. That thing saved me so much money. Owned it for 13 years and 300 something thousand...

Paint it too. Stay consistent and uniform. It looks best.

I'm in the middle of receiving a bunch of stuff for paint care and the rest of the car. Just cleaning and protection. Today, received three different brushes, and some pads for DA polisher. Yesterday was swirl remover and polish/sealer. Tomorrow? That's all I want to do to my Corolla. Just take...

A Corolla is like a good dog. It doesn't really care if you buy it something. It only wants to spend time with you, driving around.

I would suspect something is loose in the engine compartment? My 14' Corolla is smooth as can be. Impressively smooth.

Something is obviously wrong. I'd get it into the shop ASAP.

past time for editing... doh! Yes on the clay bar...

I am going through a whole bunch on this right now. I just bought this two year old 2014 Corolla LE. It is black pearl. I don't think you want to hear about everything I'm doing to the paint. I got a real good deal on it. Wouldn't have bought a black car otherwise. As a base finish.... I'm...

Welcome to the forum. India is a very interesting and diverse place. Not to mention; big.

I understand what you mean. You will fall in love with your Toyota. Because it saves you money. I owned a brand new 320i in 84. It had a 'blotch' in the paint in the middle of the hood. Couldn't see it except at night under lights. It stood out like a sore thumb. BMW wouldn't do anything about...
