    2017 Corolla Pricing and Models

    I'm wondering how the LED high beam compares to the VLED LMZ kit I put in my '14

    2017 Corolla Pricing and Models

    Looks like it came right off the delivery truck with the paper on the hood like that.

    How much can our cvts handle??

    Also, there were reports of people frying 4th gear in the 4AT, requiring a modified valve body to fix, but from what I saw it was pretty rare, and they were probably running 8 pounds and constantly gunning it. I think if you drive easy and only horse around when you need to show someone what's...

    How much can our cvts handle??

    Don't think programming would play a factor. Toyota designed the oil pressure system to have as little parasitic drag as possible, so if anything, changing the valving out to allow more oil pressure would be more beneficial than tuning. I'm interested to see how long it holds up for. I know on...

    2017 Corolla

    Must have been a huge step up! Did you luck out with the oil burning issues those generations had?

    Want to put a LED STRIP in my font headlights

    I know the side mirror signals are permasealed. At first glance the headlamp doesn't seem to be. You can place it in an oven but it is risky. There's a chance you can melt the solder on the LED assembly and damage it. I'd probably use a heat gun and stay away from the LED assembly, and see if...

    Racing with a Corolla S

    I wish Toyota would get on board with every other auto company and make a turbo car again. Honestly, if they made the V6 Camry with a 6 speed, I would have bought that instead.

    Any way to show "Current Speed" in the center screen of the Tachometer?

    Not possible. They should have though. It isn't like it would have taken rocket science to write code to do that.

    What's up with my gas mileage?

    Let the engine break in. Mileage will improve once you pass 1000 miles or so. I get 24 mpg but I have a 6MT and tend to drive pretty spirited. On a road trip with the cruise set to 75, I'll hit over 40, easy.

    HELP!!! Exhaust

    I change mine every 15k but I live in a desert. Every couple months seems excessive.

    HID lighting, LED conversion?

    Just think you'd lose more than you gain. Just my $0.02

    Belt squeak?

    I haven't heard a squeak when I tap the gas. Can have them look at it or check your belt for wear. The 2ZR-FE manually tensions off the alternator. There is no automatic belt tensioner, but I've seen them go 60,000 miles without slipping, so I don't think that is it.

    Winter tire questions

    If the TPS light won't bother you, then you don't need to get the sensors. 15" you should be safe. These use the same brakes as the 10th gen and they had 15" wheels, so you'll be fine.

    Oil filter size/brand miles over 10k

    Definitely. I prefer the cap type oil filter wrench that mounts onto a 3/8" ratchet, especially because on these ones, you actually do use a wrench to tighten them.

    Racing with a Corolla S

    No lift. Toyota hasn't had it since 2005 for the Corolla :-(

    Racing with a Corolla S

    Yup. Just confirmed it again. A vehicle speed reading flags the mode to reset at next engine start.

    Racing with a Corolla S

    I figured out what it is, and I was in the ball park with an earlier comment. Since the 6MT lacks a Park/Neutral safety switch for obvious reasons, the mode is only triggered to deactive when the car registers a vehicle speed. If I stay parked and turn the car on and off, TCS and VSC stay off...

    20,000 miles Hum/Drone

    Most likely tire wear as jolly mentioned, but without actually hearing the sound, absolutely no idea.

    Oil filter size/brand miles over 10k

    Size is the same on all of them because the 2ZR-FE uses cartridges. I use a K&N and it is does good. Whatever you use, make sure that it is rated for 10,000 miles.
