No "headlights" indicator but a "high beams" (if that is what you mean), yes. And turn signanls also, of course !

Are we serious here ?

False... P. 72 or so of the manual.

See this other thread. Someone had a problem that might be kind of similar. Ended up it was the wheels (warp or something) http://www.corollaforum.com/threads/steering-wheel-vibrations-at-high-speeds.4330/

What ? Entering my drive-way on high-beams, I illuminate the hole backayard of my backyard neighbour... on the other side of a 100ft wide river ! I perfectly understand someone wanting better lighting or even led for look. But there is no way those high beams are not brighter than DRLs since...

That one I can’t agree with. There are a lot of good reasons to go on with a tuning project: passion, hobby, curiosity, challenge. (And for some a bit vain “I can trounce car X at a stop light, boy will they be impressed”. Believe me, most aren’t.) But saving money is absolutely not one of...

CVTs sure can take more and more power. If they are conceived for this intend in the first place. The Subaru WRX manage 268 HP ? Oddly, at that level, they kind of lose the fuel economy advantage they have in more mundane application : Corolla CVT get 1 to 4 more mpg vs manual. Subaru WRX CVT...

Yes, that is one of the complaints you read/hear about the Corolla (and some other cars). I understand the point although I personally don't mind as I almost never put my elbow on the upper-door part : I'd rather have all parts of my body inside the car. But I remember doing it more frequently...

Manual S Plus ($21,500 msrp) = CVT S Plus with optional moonroof+ driver convenience package ($23,000 msrp) I guess that's the way you pay for a CVT. And since so many more people go CVT than manual, that's where the money is for Toyota !

Two things are insane : a) this price... go internet and you'll find plenty of Toyo dealers selling them for around $360-$380. (part #81150-02E60) b) The fact that he had to first figure out that you need to replace the whole assembly... Another is odd : LED of any kind usually last a long time...

Well nothing says that it is 16.4 gallons in a single time ! What's of notice is that the 17 mpg does not come from the whole 3000 miles (as I first assumed) but from a 285 miles sampler. There is no way, with such a small sampler, to conclude that the car always behave like that, that it...

I would also add that constant shorter trips also reduce efficiency. But your calculation implies that you only get 230 miles per tank... Or that you had to fill it almost every two weeks. That's odd. What does the trip computer says ? They are frequently a bit off but if there is a huge...

Something is wrong either with the car or the calculation. My LE Eco gives me between 30+ (city) and 50+ (highway). Of course if your driving is mostly city, numerous "stop", red lights and heavy traffic may considerably reduce efficiency vs a Prius. Eco Valvematic shines on highway while an...

As I said, many dealers don't even deal any more with regular AT... Some dealers, shops and individuals surely have the knowledge but then there is the time involved and the availability of parts. Remember that a huge portion of NA CVTs are still under warranty so there is close to no market...

They perfectly are for, as you said, they have less part. But they are new and most shop, including dealers hesitate or would take so many hours that it does end up costing more. It is simpler that way (dont we also do that with a lot of appliances ?). But as I said, industrially rebuilt will...

I certainly agree on comfort and MPG. The CVT in my Corolla is quiet and silky smooth like I've never experienced in any car I've owned and gives me stellar MPG ( tough it would probably be a different experience for a performance oriented driver - those are the one complaining about "drone"...

Corolla K313 has a steel on steel belt-chain as well. I don't know of any modern car using rubber belt CVT (the days of the 0,6l Variomatic DAF 600 are 50 years behind !). Even if it were, it wouldn't be rubber on steel but steel on rubber (or kevlar). Those trans are called "push-metal" for a...

A weak link would be something in the CVT preventing it from working properly in the car as is. That's what some who are a bit worrying about a CVT are inquiring about. If one wants to know how to get a CVT to work in a performance car, the shortest way would be to compare the design of the...

Actually, we will probably never know an exact difference in MPG between Eco version and others as MPG has as much to do with driving style/conditions than the car itself. I'm no "hyper-miler" but still a bit conservative driver and the economy of the Corolla, going with the flow of circulation...

All of the above plus you mention the car display : has it been reset recently ? If it has and the car was driven in city traffic, the data might reflect just this short period of time and would gradually go to normal.
