    S Plus Uncomfortable Seat

    Actually comfort is mostly a personal thing. I for one feel very comfortable in Corolla seats, unsupported in Cruze's and squeezed in Elantra. tC (aka as Toyota Zelas) is as jap as it gets. Just to say that everybody is different. Sound from tweeters when system is off : wouldn't that indicate...

    TPMS SENSORS

    New sensors should be programmed into the system. The seller should have been able to do it (and include it in the price). If not it's the dealer or you need some special tool : http://www.ateqtpm.com/personal-use-tools/ If the seller wasn't able to check it, are the sensors properly working or...

    Tires for LIFE

    There is no "solution" nor "philosophical" consideration around a contract. You get what's in it period. It it's fuzzy (generally on purpose from the vendor) and you signed it anyway hoping for the best then it's a civil matter for courts.

    TPMS SENSORS

    This is odd as pressure would go higher, not lower at highway speed. If pressure is equal, was the desired pressure programmed in the system in the first place (reset button, which is different than re initializing the system) ? Is it because of the speed or because of an X amount of time...

    Timing belt or chain?

    Chain. Again, all Toyota Z engines use chain. See for yourself. http://physics.usc.edu/Undergraduate/temporary/corolla2009/2zrfeeng.pdf

    never again

    Odd : There was a mix-up with keys. That is an easy check when you tour the car before taking delivery. Odder : Toyota reimbursed you instead of the dealer (via the warranty) whom probably still had the original missing key (or there is another customer with an odd key set...) Oddest : They...

    2014 Toyota Corolla S Grill

    Beside bigger wheels and some fancier cabin amenities, the grille is the main visual distinction between S and L/LE/ECO. It would be easy to swap except for one detail : the cutting for the Toyota logo is different (round for S, square for L/LE/ECO). So one would have to change both the bumper...

    Tires for LIFE

    I don't think vendors are dumb enough to not foresight this in the contract ! Chances are those programs cover normal use replacement, not road hazard (a different kind of insurance, or so called "warranty", applies, generally at cost). And at the vendors conditions like type of tire and usually...

    Timing belt or chain?

    No... Timing chain. All Toyota's Z engines have timing chain.

    What is the name of this thing?

    All ECO and S (including lip spoiler on the trunk) have them. Not sure for L/LE since this picture is never associated with them but they sure include the fins in front of each wheel. But for the Eco, the Valvematic and smaller wheels of the base model play the bigger part in MPG.

    What is the name of this thing?

    I don't think so. What OP is talking about is the vertical "wing" right in front of the tire. Actually, there is one in front of all 4 tires. But what would be the name of the piece ? Rear wheel well air deflector ? You can see it in pink, as all aerodynamic parts underneath the Corolla, in...

    turning off TPMS light after tire rotation

    I'm a bit confused here. Rotating the tires means front wheels to rear and left to right. This changes nothing to the TPMS. If you mean changing wheels, then either your new wheels don't have sensors and the light will simply remains on, or you new wheels have other sensors, then the system...

    USB Media - Super Slow

    I doesn't make a difference. Again this 30 min thing is not normal (around 1 min - while the last song playing resume and play and you're all set) Normal ? Not everybody is you... I find it much less fussy to have a usb permanently plugged in and control it via the touchscreen.

    Automatic headlight shutoff

    Mine does but its a canadian model (auto-headlights). Wouldn't the easiest way to find it would be to actually push the lock button and see what happen ?

    2015 Corolla Le- door lock chime

    In the menu you have bars to adjust the volume but, if I remember well, it first have to be "on", not "off" via the same menu.
