If the car has low mileage I bet it will be the first car once the 7 yr old get its permit. It will last that long. About the car seats, as long as you don't planned to try to fit three Eddie Bauer's size car seat they should be fine. The only con is that they will be close enough to pull each...

Welcome to the forum. Look for a room dedicated to your year timeframe. Is your E100 a two door plus the hatch or a 4 door plus the hatch? I got here two weeks ago and found a lot of ppl with knowledge over here. I am an automotive technician and a military vehicle mechanic. Keep us posted on...

Hello: First of all I can explain a little if the car is an automatic transmission. Toyota company is been using and upgrading transmission for a while. Since the corollas are a car with low torque engines, the transmission will pull the car easy without even touch the accelerator. That will...

Good morning Sir, Let's divide the issues. The car doesn't start. Every car do a system check when you put the key into the ignition in the on position. Do not just get the key in and go straight to start. Two things are happening. One, the system check is not finished when you try to crank the...

Hello Sir, It looks you have everything covered with the suggestions from the guys. About the battery situation, you living in a mostly cold climate and driving to remote places I will strongly recommend an Optima Red Top battery. It will last almost as long as your car. Even has enough juice...

Hello my lady, Like the guys said on this post, who's working on your car... Now to business, they can be correct on assuming the cv axle needs to be check. Now remember, on any front end of any car there has to be some geometry to align everything without compromising the performance. I would...

Hello, Hope you decided on getting the new wheels you were looking for. Corollas are extremely reliable cars unless they were abused or not maintain at all. I've worked on cars for 14 years and seen Corollas coming for oil changes at 4500 miles (regular oil, not synthetic) and they ran over...

Hello guys, What Charles said is correct. The O-ring needs to be change in order to prevent oil leak. Not only because the oil additives reaction to the ring can degraded with time but most important, when you tightening the cap the ring compress. The ring remain compressed until you change...

Congrats on your new ride and welcome to the forum from a Puerto Rican in Missouri.

Just go with a company that has a good name brand and give you a good warranty just in case. I changed my head unit for a Kenwood Excelon. You have a lot of options from Alpine, Sony, Pioneer or Kenwood. Good luck and happy listening .

Remember that the bigger the tire and rim size you use it will throw your alignment off, yes you will have more traction but the turning radio will be larger. Just don't go more than 215 for the width of the tire. It will rub on the fender. Bigger rim gives you more control but if the rim is...

Thank you. Is there a place for pictures from the ppl in the forums that I can use for inspiration. Gracias

Lighter rims, better Air intake or at least a better intake filter and change to synthetic oil. When is time for tune up better spark plugs. This will make your gas mileage going up because the car will be lighter weight, more fuel efficient and the parts won't wear out as fast thanks to the...

It also depends on your budget

Hello, First of all I hope your adapter is from 115mm to 100mm because the spacing from the rims are wider so you will only install 3 out of the 5 lug nuts. Second, the difference between the two size of tires is how wide they are. To be on the safe size choose the 215. Even that you would have...

I will suggest you to verify the alternator again. Once the car starts the alternator will take charge on replenish your battery and running your electronics in the car. So, if your battery drains is because the alternator is not charging or you have something connected to the battery that is...

Congrats!!!!!! The breakdown is much slower on the synthetic. Since you have a Semi-synthetic I will recommend you to check around 3500 mile the status and color of the oil. If it is blackish or too thin (watery) change it and go full synthetic. The color changed is because the new oil is...

Hello SpicyGiraffe, If you verify that the alternator is working fine, then I will check for a loose connection. By what you explained if the light goes off when accelerating the engine vibration is less, while becoming smooth the loose connection will stay in place making an interrupted...
