Yes it's easy to get a loan but many people put larger down payments and pay off their loans quicker. I've always paid off any loan quicker so save thousands of $$ on interest unless I have a 0% loan. I took out a loan on my 2017 RAV4 that I bought at the same time I bought my 2017 Corolla iM...

1997 Corollas were all FI by this time in NA.

Update on my Corollas. I added a 2017 Corolla iM 6MT since this last post. 1994 Corolla DX 5MT - 310k miles, oldest daughters car now 2007 Corolla CE 5MT - 115k miles, youngest daughters car now 2009 Corolla S 5MT - 98k miles and is now turbocharged! 2017 Corolla iM 6MT - 6k miles

Yep, this has been a well documented issue with many of the 9th Gen Corollas. The only fix is to buy another instrument cluster. One option could be to find a speedometer shop and see if they can manually roll it past 300k miles or back to 0. You could track mileage manually until then or from...

The proper diameter and size would be 225/40R18 tires.

Your Corolla is just broken in. If it's running great I would just keep it. The value of it is mostly gone now so you could drive it for another 100k miles and still sell it for 80% of what you could today. I've owned many Corollas over the years and they have always gone 300-400k miles with few...

When my 2009 Corolla was made it was at NUMMI in CA which is no longer. Some of the 10th Gen Corollas came built in Japan. I know that my 2017 Corolla iM was built in Japan as was the engine so there are several different plants around the world but Corolla built in NA would have the engines...

I always change my oil on a new car at 1k miles, then again at 5k miles. After that I change it every 5k-7500 miles or 12 months whichever comes first. I don't think that the engines are made in China, I believe they are made in Japan but I'm not 100% sure.

Yes they are, I'm just worried about having too much red even though I really like the red hoses. I've got a fair amount of red already.

Thanks, your response was funny! I remember seeing these one time many years ago but I couldn't find them when I looked. Now do I go for the red or black?

I ALWAYS use the parking brake every time no matter the surface level. It amazes me that people don't.

5990 on my 17 Corolla iM 6MT now. Love it.

If he goes to a 17" wheel don't use the the OEM 215/45R17 since its diameter is smaller than other OEM sizes. The best size is a 225/45R17 with a diameter of 25.0". Here is a list of various tire sizes for the Corolla and the respective diameter. 195/65R15 25.0" diameter 205/55R16 24.9"...

Where did you get the red hoses? Links?

You just need to do some searching on car forums. Some may be here, also look on ToyotaNation. Many have used this horn and just replaced the Corolla horn with it. Another option is to use a Lexus horn as a direct replacement. Others have said they sound much better...

People tend to use CC in situations that it's not really made for. There is some play in the speed controls going up hills and down. It's not really designed to use in places where there are hills. Most cars will accelerate going down hills with the CC on and use higher revs to slow the car...

TRD springs, RSB and FSB can all be bought at any dealer. You can also look on line as many dealers sell there too. You can find Eibach springs many places too and I think they are the perfect springs for the Corolla. Ultra Racing suspension pieces and chassis braces are available too. Just...

There are many horn upgrades that are plug n play.

Well what would you like to do? I would suggest improving handling with suspension upgrades like lowering springs, rear sway bar and front strut brace as a good place to begin. Look around the forum and see what others have done.

I don't have a heated steering wheel but that would make sense as that is where your hands should be.
