I bought the 2015 Corolla S Premium because I wanted the top of the line model. Mine just says S on the back. Today in the parking lot of my office, I saw another new Corolla with TRD WTi badge on the back. Is this a higher trim? I confirmed with the dealer that mine was highest. Anyone know...

I had my car washed at a cheap place that uses people who dip a sponge in soap water and wash it manually. After they were done drying it manually and vacuuming, I noticed an A-shaped scratch (about 3 inches big) on the door. It may have also been someone doing it on purpose at my apartment bldg...

Anyone else getting only 27 mpg in town and 38 on hwy? Why so low? I'm trying to hypermile and this is all I get.

After buying my 2015 S Premium, I regretted it and really wished I had purchased the Lexus IS250 because it would fulfill all the reasons why I purchased the Corolla and yet be more luxurious and prestigious. Then I found out the IS250 gets 22 mpg! Thank God I didn't buy it! I had no idea all...

I have a button labeled Trac Control Off. If I press it, the display lights up on dash. When should I push it? What is default?

Thanks, our plan now is to wait until HRV and CX-3 release.

Thanks! Not looking for performance or handling. Wife's needs are (in order of priority): Small size, navi, ride. I may look at some of the koreans too, but i think their ride is bad.

Thanks, I just read CR for Encore and it is not recommended. Also some things like no power recline and some other small things I can't recall in the review kill it for me.

Hahaha!

I found articles online that said do not use engine braking with CVT. They say not to suddenly downshift using paddles when traveling at speed to brake. CVTs are so new no one knows what impact it will have long term. Brakes are cheaper to replace than CVTs. this is a bummer because I am used to...

What on earth is a header and is it important to me?

Ah, I thought CR panned the corolla like Edmunds did. US News gave Corolla 17th out of 25 compacts! For the Juke, your post of "rear visibility, premium fuel" is enough to kill it as an option. If the CRV has same infotainment system as Civic, it kills it for me. Buick Encore is intriguing but...

I have S Premium with CVT. But no S or B. But it has M. hahaha

What do reviewers mean when they say "Corolla steering has no feedback"? When I turn the wheel, it responds at once. Not like my old F150 that used to wait for a while after I turned the wheel or would turn on its own if I let go of the wheel. What is this feedback issue on Corolla?

We test drove the Rav4, CX-5, Rogue, CRV, NX and RX350 either from friends who own them or dealer. All are too large for my wife she says. So it will have to be HR-V or CX-3 when they release. Buick Encore is intriguing but I fear reliability; what do you think? Any options other than what I...

I have S Premium and don't see any S or B position!

Thanks! I didn't realize the RX-350 is larger than the CRV. It does get very poor mileage. Had never heard of the NX. Acura should bring out their version of the HR-V called CDX next year, but we need to buy in August 2015. Hopefully the NX will be out by then. I will read up on the Subarus and...

My wife would like a new car, and I'm looking for some suggestions for cars based on the specs below. 1. Low road noise. Fit and even Corolla is too loud for her, so I am thinking Lexus RX350 or Infiniti/Acura? I heard Acuras are loud too. 2. Leather, navi, and sunroof. Most subcompacts are out...

I don't lnow how you knew this "you should take the car to redline here and there to get rid of carbon build-up in the combustion chambers. Otherwise you'll have to start running 89 or 91 to stop the engine from pinging once you start going into the high-mileage territory." It is exactly what...

How many miles or months is break-in? Should I drive at high speeds now to break in? I have 3 weeks and 750 miles on the car.
