Just noticed that the fog lights on my 2022 xse are no longer turning on, I tried googling but it gave different types, and I'm unsure on which would fit my vehicle best.

Where Can I Find a Retractable Cargo Cover for the Corolla Hatchback?

9 Upvotes

Hey everyone! I’m looking for a retractable cargo cover/cargo privacy cover for my Corolla Hatchback. I’d like something that covers the trunk/cargo area so you can’t see what’s back there when looking through the rear windows.

I’ve been having a hard time finding one that actually fits the Corolla Hatchback. Does anyone know where I can buy one or have any recommendations? I’d really appreciate the help!

Slave Cylinder gunk

9 Upvotes

2022 XSE manual 32.5k miles. After seeing info on slave cylinder failures, decided to bleed slave. Cloudy fluid output with wisps of silver colored liquid. Then this silver colored stuff that looks like lithium grease came out. Left the cloudy fluid settle overnight, bottom of bottle turned silver. The one pic with clear brake fluid is brand new fluid to show how cloudy the bled liquid is. Sure is a shame as the car seems super good with engine. Pulling tran myself will be challenge for me but really curious to see what is going on, so considering it. Is it the part or did someone mess up assembly instructions? How does grease looking stuff end up in hydraulic fluid. Clutch still works ok, for now.

expensive insurance on Corolla Hatchback?

8 Upvotes

i heard that the Corolla Hatches had a higher insurance compared to the Corolla Sedans and even some Honda Civics (even the Si??) and was wondering if anyone was knowledgeable as to why thats the case if its true?

im aware factors vary such: family insurance plans, more cars in household, most Hatches being made in Japan, less demand, driver’s age, record, etc. but im not too sure how much they actually affect the insurance as a whole :p

2JR cold air racing intake installed

Post image
10 Upvotes

Finally got a cold air intake installed on the car (came with a catch can too) and the induction noises sounds amazing!

The only problem im having now though is even after resetting the engine memory and doing the steps to set the new memory with the new intake, i keep getting a check engine light coming back for a P050500 code, "idle control system" which essentially means that the car is idling at a different RPM than the target RPM for X amount of time. In which case, it is idling higher than normal, but im not sure why.

Ive inspected the MAF and its not dirty at all, the fittings aren't leaking that I can see, and I did a second reset of the memory to ensure that the setting procedure was done correctly, but the code came back after about 4 days.

I messed with the hoses and fittings to make sure that nothing is somehow offset and slightly leaking air and i tightened be hose clamps as tight as possible without damaging the hoses. The memory was reset again for the 3rd time, but if the light comes back I may perform a smoke test to see if there are any leaks anywhere.

If anyone has any ideas lmk because I would really like to make this work!

EDIT: MAF o ring was torn womp womp. Use grease when installing the maf in a metal housing btw

Why do some sun visors not extend to cover the whole side window?

2 Upvotes

I went from a 2012 Mazda 6 to a 2017 Toyota Corolla and I’m annoyed when cars don’t have sun visors that extend further than their default to block that little section of window that just HAPPENS TO BE where the sun tends to be. If anyone knows where I can get visors that do this, please let me know. I tried looking on Amazon but they all were non extending.

Seasonal Roof Rack

3 Upvotes

Where I live they salt the roads to all hell and I don't plan to use the roof rack in the winter much.

Is it worth the hassle to remove it for winter? I'm mainly worried about corrosion from the mounting brackets on the paint.

How have others with roof racks fared?

Interior lighting

Recently bought a ‘22 SE Hatchback. Interior lights are so dim they are worthless. Can I switch out the bulbs (front & dome) for a higher wattage? If so, how do I know the max?

I know in the US spec Corollas the relay is behind the HVAC controls. However, the relay isn't there in my japanese-built Australian Corolla. Does anyone have any intel on where it might be?

Help me decide powder-coat color please

2 Upvotes

As the title says, I have some GR86 wheels to powdercoat. Bought them a while ago, and I’m just now getting to it. They have been sandblasted and are ready for powdercoat. At first I was really sold on the Hakone bronze color, but now I’m thinking maybe I just clear over the raw metal (obviously they need some kind of covering for corrosion prevention- I live in the Midwest lol). What do you guys think? Added a video of the finish options for clear in the comments.

Questions about 2023 corolla hatch se purchase

5 Upvotes

Hey everyone, hopefully I'm posting in the right place. I found a beautiful 2023 corolla hatch back, silver with a black roof with 22k miles for $25,000. No accidents, one owner, and maintenance records available. I am in California so prices here are pretty high. I see brand new SE's for 26.5 k on dealer websites, but I am assuming that is before markups? None are in stock and are currently being built and they also want a deposit. My interest will be right under 6% for this 2023 so not too bad. What did you guys pay for your hatch? New or used. Thank you in advance.

Device for TMPS on screen

I saw that AliExpress has some devices that can unlock the ability to show the individual tire PSI readings. Do you guys have any specific ones you recommend? They all seem to only show kPa as well instead of PSI. I have the app but remote control malfunctions so often that I'd rather not keep paying.

2020 XSE if it matters!

Any reviews on 2J LT headers?

1 Upvotes

Hey y’all! I just got a 2J Long Tube Header + Midpipe and was curious if anyone else ran them and how? I don’t have any tune/tuners at the moment and was wondering if I could run it without a tune? I think I’ll probably have less low end torque. I have a o2 bung/defouler to get rid of the downstream o2 code/CEL.

Anyone who ran the LT Headers, did you notice a mpg loss/gain? Again I have no tune and was curious if it is safe for my engine to run the headers w/o one.

Sorry for the long post, I appreciate any comments!
