Wanted to pop in since I just acquired a 99 Corolla two weeks ago. It just turned 92k yesterday. Fun little car to drive around, Tundra been parked since 😂 Reminds me so much of my younger driving days, manual locks, windows, hell there’s even no trunk lever haha. Definitely worth the 3k I paid for it. Let’s see how many miles I can roll with this thing.

I was dropping off a DoorDash order at someone’s house, and when I pulled up to the curb, apparently there was an area where the street started slanting towards the curb all of a sudden. Like I had to back up to get out of it.

I was already quoted 300+ to repair. Would you guys just live with it? I’m so distraught. I feel like I swallowed a box of nails. My poor baby.

I’m so happy that this is my first big girl purchase. Even the money guy at the dealer said I got a good one 🤘🏼
Special paint, Swaggy rims, sport suspension.

I purchased a 2021 Toyota Corolla LE with 57k miles and no reported accidents for $18k ($19.4k after MI tax). I negotiated down from $18.5k… it’s the best I could do and the best I could find in my area of West Michigan. It’s kinda scratched up but not too noticeable after covering them with an OEM black touchup pen. I had a full inspection done on it to find that the back brakes will need replacing fairly soon, everything else looked good. I question if I should have just bought a Toyota on FB Marketplace instead. I spent 67% of what I make in a year, while only working weekends and being a full-time student. How are we feeling about it?

1993 corolla wagon, i love it!!

So yesterday I bought a 2026 Toyota Corolla SE not tinted.
I ended up negotiating the over all price to 28,200
With taxes included and registration.
I pay $480 a month. I put a down payment of $1500 with an Apr of 8.99% I feel like it was not a good deal
I’m a first time buyer too

Bought this car 2 months ago. 2017 corolla LE. thought it was kinda odd that I found the number of miles etched into the mount under my hood when I bought it. 69,272 is exactly what the csr read when I drove off with it. Is this just some coincidence? Ive owned a few toyota before and never saw numbers under the hood.

You know it's my first car. I never thought I'd get a car so soon and so new and so cool--I used to be so happy. But as I grew to know more about cars, I learned the reputation Corolla's have for being economy cars.

And somewhere along the way I felt inadequate about it. Maybe it's just the human spirit to never be satisfied.

Though instead of trying to fix that void with trying to buy something else, something likely out of my budget, I decided to double down.

I love this car now, if not only because I have made it my own.

Let me know what you think.

Hi,

First post here!

In April I bought my first Toyota which was also my first “nice” car purchase, I’ve always driven beaters or hoopties.

I love this car and I want to do some slight modifications to it. It is a 2024 Corolla LE.

I do need to fix the trunk, the part that sits over the spare tire is cracked in half and I didn’t realize it until after I bought the car or I would’ve asked the dealer to fix it. What is a good recommendation to fix that? Since the original broke I always like to upgrade from factory, but if I can’t I’m not all that worried about an upgraded fix, just a regular fix is fine!

Second, is things as far as heated seat covers, floor mats, and other things that i might be missing what are your recommendations? I have a 12” sub and amp I’d like to throw in it, but I’m not even sure if it would fit or be able to handle it.
What are your must haves in your Corolla? I’ve already bought a low profile floor jack since the car is so slow to the ground!

Picture of my new car so this post doesn’t get lost!

Thanks!

Back and neck are sore. Went to the er to get checked out. Thankfully no breaks or anything wrong.

Was rear ended at a stop in traffic. Guy was going probably 35-40 when he hit me. His airbag deployed. I’m not worried about the damages, insurance will handle it.

But my seat shifted back during the accident. It’s hard to notice on the pictures I took. But I sit further forward and upright than the seat is at.

After the accident I pulled over to the median and sat for a few in pain. Got out and talked with ems and le after my car called them for me. Got back in the car and noticed the seat was not in its previous position.

I did a little googling and apparently that’s not normal. Is this something worth following up on with an attorney or Toyota or? I’m a little unnerved about it all and google has given me a bit of a scare.

Was cleaning out my 2010 Corolla that I just bought a few months ago and noticed that the floor in the backseat is wet and seems to have mold. I’m not a mold expert but it sure looks like mold. I haven’t spilled anything or left the windows down when it rains or anything like that. I don’t even think I’ve had anyone ride in the backseat with food or drinks either. What’s causing this and how do I fix it?

Finally paid my Corolla off and looking at long term care for her.

I’ve done oil changes regularly but am coming up on long term maintenance like brakes and fluids around 72k miles.

How much mileage did you get from your factory brakes? When did you notice them going?

How about fluids and any other issues?

I have a 2021 Corolla LE with key. Going to the drive in but I can seem to get into aux mode with the lights off? The yellow lights seem to stay on no matter what?

Any tips?

Toyota Corolla 2019 TS Hybrid, only driver window is stuttering like this, is there an easy fix or something I am missing?

concerned about my car, its a 2020 corolla LE sedan, could be water pump? or the belt tensioner? just replaced the belt yesterday

Saw this on my 2004 Corolla LE and I’m wondering if it could cause problems? It seems to be some kind of ground wire connected to the frame to the body that was chewed up by something. Car runs and drives great and I’m leaving to go on a long road trip tommorow. Should I replace this?

Its scorching hot, I want to leave the windows open while not in the vehicle.

Alarm starts sounding when a bit of breeze passes through. This us even happening if I leave car unlocked.

Corrolla 22.

Anyway of stopping this?

My 2006 Corolla LE died in 2021 during COVID. It was a 5 speed manual. There were only 2 choices at my dealer, a hybrid Corolla and what I purchased, a 21 Corolla SE CVT automatic. My child has a drivers permit and I am thinking she'll get the Corolla SE. So I am slowly looking for Corolla 1.8 liter, 5 or 6 manual transmission. I've driven Toyotas for 49 years & most have been manuals. I understand these are not popular anymore but does anyone know of a good (used) website to find a manual Corolla? Thanks in Advance!

Serious question, just changed the oil on my 2020 corolla for the first time, and while the only thing I removed was the oil cap, I noticed those two threaded holes right in front of the oil cap. I feel like something is supposed to be there and it’s not…
