    Why did you choose your Corolla over the Civic?

    2015 Civic does not have DI. (I don't believe the Si model even has it). Will have it starting with next design. What model were you looking at that was $25K sticker. I bought an LX for 15600, discount of about $3600.

    Very high curb=scratched up bottom piece

    When I had similar damage to my last car it was going to be about $850 to fix it. The problem is, you're likely going to have something happen again, bump another curb, deep pothole, dip coming out of a parking lot onto a road. Do you want to keep dropping that kind of cash each time? You...

    Audio/Entune Problem: Horrible Audio on 2015 Corolla

    Doesn't the fact that when you're driving the car you are not equal distance from both speakers cause the speakers not to be in phase when the sound reaches your ears? Interesting, because I k ow what out of phase sounds like it and my ECO speakers did not exhibit that. If its wired correctly...

    Can you really tell difference from Eco to LE?

    My Eco got about the same MPG as Jolly's, about 10 over EPA (almost all highway and conservative driving does the trick)

    Can you really tell difference from Eco to LE?

    I don't know. Since I sold the car, I didn't read the recall notice very carefully, but it definitely affected my VIN number. If the valvematic fails, you are stuck until its fixed, of course you have free roadside assistance. I believe the mentions I saw of it were on toyotanation's own...

    Can you really tell difference from Eco to LE?

    At least some Eco models have been recalled due to the valvematic control either being defective or needing a software update. A few people on corolla forums have reported this failure. I no longer own my Eco but received a letter last week to bring the car in for service. The OP might want to...

    2014 Corolla With 13,500 Miles Needs Cylinder Head Replaced

    ThisOTE="DjAnnexAlpha, post: 22889, member: 3658"]Yup! The car uses synthetic engine oil, why every 5K? On top of that, they said "oh there is a service that must be done at $15K but the insurance won't cover it". I have looked everywhere online to find the god damn service schedule and NO ONE...

    2014 Corolla With 13,500 Miles Needs Cylinder Head Replaced

    Faulkner Toyota in Harrisburg is very good service. Confer Toyota in State College is excellent, but too far from you. From you dealer's performance record for service, if it were me I'd be looking fora new servicing dealer. Nothing wrong with being a pain in the butt as long as you are...

    2014 Corolla With 13,500 Miles Needs Cylinder Head Replaced

    I'm in PA too. Do you mind mentioning what part of PA you are in, can PM if you'd like. I know of two dealers in PA who have EXCELLENT service, should you require further work. I think they treated you condescendingly because you're a female. That's BS, I would have called them on it...

    2014 Corolla With 13,500 Miles Needs Cylinder Head Replaced

    Do you think this failure is at all related to it being the ECO version with the "intelligent" valvematic management system? I've come across a couple of instances of some fairly significant repairs to ECO model engines now ( another being the valve management module failed and had to be...

    Flame Magnet, Vinyl Flames, or Wrap

    Don't get too obsessed. or you'll end up driving your self crazy. Your car WILL get scratched (or God forbid, a door ding or a road rash scrape) no matter how careful you are, just the nature of the beast. Unfortunately a dark royal blue like you have tends to show swirls, etc. I know because...

    S Plus Uncomfortable Seat

    Yeah the telescoping steering column is a joke, it moves all of about an inch.

    S Plus Uncomfortable Seat

    Thank you very much. Its tempting to give it a try. I wish they gave a little more info about dimensions (length of rails etc). I'll probably try to contact the seller and see if they have any more details. Unlike most people, I'd rather sit lower and further back.

    S Plus Uncomfortable Seat

    I went to their website and tried to find this, without any luck. Their website is a mess, unless I'm at the wrong site. Would you happen to have a link? Would this allow the drivers seat to extend further back from its current travel limit? Thanks.

    Toyota Facelifted JDM-Spec Corolla Fielder and Corolla Axio

    I think its a very retro look, especially the rounded back. I think its a love it / hate it thing.

    S Plus Uncomfortable Seat

    Well, your problem isn't as uncommon as you might think, as you've found out. Not just back, but knees, hips, etc. Often comfort issues aren't apparent in the short time most people test drive cars. I have a herniated disc and I find the seats in the Eco to be very comfortable, if firm, for...
