A few words about car problems. - Toyota Corolla, 1.6L, 2007
Well, I decided to write at least something. The mileage has already exceeded 143 thousand. The car drives and there are no special problems. But before winter I received two blows to the rear bumper, with a difference in a day. The auto window opening does not work. Engine protection and a bunch of all plastic from the bottom of the car, after winter it will be replaced, the mud flaps are also all dented from ice The cigarette lighter is broken (I sometimes miss it), and a new one is not sold separately, you need to buy the whole unit and it costs 800 UAH. Again there was a rattle in the brakes (how tired it was). AAAA I almost forgot and again I will have to change shock absorber bushings or whatever they are called. For the 3rd time. Also, the front left gauge bulb and the license plate light have changed.
Well, that's all. A lot? Well, I would not say. These are all little things.
So, summing up, I can say that for 140 thousand. I'm happy with the car. That's all for now.
I also heard about the engine. And all these little things because of the same run, and the machine has gone through a lot.
I have 80 thousand in 2 years in shock that I hit a lot there! and you have such a mileage, you drive a lot))))) they seem to have a millionaire engine as far as I know
Thank you. I have already eliminated some of the problems. Well, I have already poured all the dimes into the reptile. :)
These are all little things with such and such a run for such a period. Just pack up, go and do a full MOT, and all these little things will be eliminated. For your krasstock, as always 5)
Thanks for the advice. The weather will get better, I'll go and see. And then the sound really got out.
I'm talking about the grinding of the brakes. I had a Ford Focus before the Corolla, so there by 100 thousand mileage a sound like xp-xp-xp appeared when braking from the front left. For a long time they could not find the cause, then it turned out that the brake disc had worn out and the edging formed around the perimeter of the disc touched either the caliper or the brake pad during braking. The disc was pierced and everything became OK. Maybe you have the same problem?
I look at the number of your mileage, and sales somehow proudly become for the Japanese manufacturer) Many cars themselves after such a run show themselves that they want to send them to the scrap ... 34,000 for mine, in May it will be 3 years
140 mileage is serious ... it was always interesting how long such a Corolla goes ... I don't even have 50 thousand and it seems like a lot))))
auto opening the glass also did not work ... threw off the terminal - it all worked)
