    2013 - Phonebook Issues

    not sure. I connected my phone (blackberry Z30, yes a BB thank you) and all my contacts are there. did not have to do anything. Check the phone manual and settings maybe there are some settings that have to be set on the phone.

    Radio Light

    I'm no expert but it sounds to me when the bluetooth was installed maybe the used the wrong wire for power or switch two wires when putting back together. might have to get a car electrician to trace the installation and check the wires.

    Radio Light

    when was it installed? when you bought it or was it there already? if they installed it when you bought it then take it back to the dlr to have them fix it.

    Radio Light

    normal in the sense that the radio will dim when lights turned on but not be completely out. lights might be burned out and can be replaced but might be easier and cheaper to pull one from a wrecking yard.

    Plasti Dip Grill

    I am thinking of doing this but my car is white and I will go dark gray (like the Corolla in other markets) having a dark car and going white is different....looks ok. Not sure if the fog light surrounds would make it better, might be to much. It is plastidip so if anything it can be taken off.

    LE to S Design?

    Yes they are. Not sure about the side sill ones but the fronts on the 2009-2010 extend more into centreline of bumper. The 2011-2013 rears have a black insert and they "wrap" around rectangular reflectors.

    Front Speakers

    I will try to make this short. few months ago I got some 6.5" speakers for free. (brand new). While I never really had intentions of upgrading my speakers I now had two free ones. The brand is Scosche so I bought the same ones in 6x9. then I found out I need to buy adapters which are more...

    Instrument Lights

    I'm in Canada and my 2013 S with auto lights the dash is always off until lights come on. I find it fine to see the dash during the bright sunny days so I have no issues if the dash is off.

    Recommended Oil Change So Short

    depends on the oil. for the first 3 changes my 2013 is 8000km. after 24000kms it changes to every 16000kms for a change. I think in 2011 they started to come with synthetic oil from the factory, I don't think the 2009 did.

    2003 Corolla - Number of Speakers?

    if there are grills on the side mirrors than chances are there are tweeters in there, which would be wired. if they were blanks then no speakers

    2011 Corolla - Mysterious Button and Console Charger Outlets

    not oem items. the on off switch might control the power to the plugs. just a thought. as for the reset one no idea. something was installed and later removed. maybe a rocking stereo or something like that, or stobe/led stip lights. who ever did the install did a nice job of it.

    Nervous About CVT

    I believe Toyota used CVT's in last gen Corolla's in other parts of the world. And they have been made and used in other applications for quite some time now so should be ok

    2013 Corolla - Poor Gas Mileage

    gas mileage the manufacturers post are done in a controlled test that does NOT match real world habits. Temp, humidity, altitude, dry road, wet road, everything and anything has an effect both positive and negative. Driving habits are what can be controlled. It is a fact that driving slower...
