I have a 2010 LE and 2012 S. I was driving over 800 miles a week, the the longest stretch being 5.5 hrs. In general the S seat is better for me as it seems thinner and harder, however I cannot stand the back pain in either one. I tried towels for a while but finally found the Aerocore Seat Pad...

Fishy, another very nice video. Funny that the S still does not have auto headlights unless you get the nav. I wonder if the LE has them as standard. My 2010 LE has them, and my 2012 S does not, which recently left me stranded after leaving the lights on. If they don't have something to avoid...

Does anyone know which Toyota models and years have the Battery Saving Function. This is where the lights will turn off after 20 or 30 minutes period of time if the lights are left on to save the battery.

Update again: 10. The console cup holders in my 2010 have an insert that is spring loaded to hold different size cups. The 2012 has just a solid plastic separator, no way to hold different size cups. Had to hang onto my coffee cup going through the mountains because it was too small for the cup...

Update: I will take back the remote keyless distance complaint. I got a new battery for the key and it works a lot better. Not as good as my other car but I think it is just the remote itself. 7. Went to hang by cloths bar in the back seat, and you guess it, they changed the hanger so they no...

How does the timer work, and how do you know there is a timer? Is it described in the manual.

Here are my complaints about the 2012. I have to 2010 and just got a 2012 S so that is what I am comparing against. 1. No auto headlights, not even a timer or headlights off when ignition is off, unbelievable. 2. Remote keyless only extends 2.3 feet from the car. Almost useless. Should be a...

I have no complaints about my 2010 LE with 191,000 miles. Averages 39-40 mpg. Just had it checked out by the dealer, they found nothing needed. Brakes are still original. Battery has gone for 5 years but I just replaced it to be safe. :D

I called the dealer and they quoted me $350 for the key with remote, and $160 for just a key (no remote). Also mention that is I lost the single key that I have it would cost a lot more. :no:

I notice the remote keyless entry range was shortened on my 2012 Corolla vs 2010 model. Even the manual says the range is only 2.3 feet from the car. With the 2010 I can usually be 100 feet or more away. The 2.3 feet is ridiculously too close and inconvenient. I replaced battery but that makes...

2012 Corolla S but only have one key. What is the best way to get a spare key? Some say Lowe's or Home Deport, but then I have heard you need to go to the dealer as they need to match the key with the car. The key I have is black with 4 buttons on it. Even a valet key would be nice as long as it...

Have a 2012 Corolla S and the headlights on buzzer needs to be much louder. I would like to replace it with a loader buzzer. Is it accessible under the dash?

My 2012 S also does not seem to have a headlights off with ignition off feature either. Is there an EASY dealer or aftermarket fix. Here is what a Yaris owner did: http://www.yarisworld.com/forums/showthread.php?t=14427&highlight=mod+makes+headlights+turn+ignition+turned
