Toyota Corolla MPG experience

Written by: tucson_mike on Aug 26, 2008 05:45 PM

I purchased a used 2006 Toyota Corolla (with 17,000 miles) this last Jan 2008 and have been following some of these discussions with interest and tracking my own results. This is my first post since it seems I have enough data now to make some comments. I certainly haven't reviewed all of these interesting posts, so excuse me if I am repeating some well known minutia. ... Read More...

Written by: daison on Aug 14, 2008 10:14 AM

Guys, I was using a 2006 Toyota Corolla till date and got it changed with a 2009 Toyota Corolla. It has central lock system but no remote control. I love the ride in this even more than the Prado that I used between the vehicles got changed. Only problem is - the front passenger door cant be opened from inside or outside door handles after a ride. One has to take the vehicle ... Read More...

Not too many months ago the 3 Memphis Toyota dealers had up to 30 in stock. I checked today, the largest dealer had none in stock, the other two showed one each in stock. When they first came out in April 2006, you had to pay full MSRP to get one. Last year you could get them for up to $1,500 off MSRP. I imagine we are back to full MSRP again. I know that they are never mentioned ... Read More...

"I strongly suspect that consumer auto leases (at least those sponsored by the auto manufacturers) will be history by the end of the year. Chrysler has already announced that they will exit the lease business on August 1st. Cerberus Capital not only owns Chrysler and Chrysler Financial but controlling interest in GMAC as well. So I suspect GM will follow shortly. ... Read More...

The radiator and a/c died on my 05 Corolla XRS at about 83kms. The radiator replacement was done in Apr. because it was cracked (That looked like a defective part according to an industrial quality control tech who saw the radiator.) But alas the warranty had expired so I got the bill and they didn't spot the a/c failure in the service check either. So, yeah, I have ... Read More...

Honda service/parts aren't too much different from Toyota these days. I get my oil changed at Wal-Mart, and am buying shocks from a Midas-style place soon. A new timing belt is due on my red one at 180k miles, and that won't be done at a dealer either - just a local mechanic shop with a good reputation. Yes, I typically can discern Accords from each other by generation. ... Read More...

I understand totally...I was 21 once, myself! My idea of fun half a lifetime ago was driving down I-35 in my old Ford Maverick with both windows cranked down (you DO come to appreciate power windows when you get older...trust me) doing 80 and pretending I had a convertible! These days I don't need all that much excitement! LOL I guess I'm becoming more European as ... Read More...
