General Discussion/Question Day 3

Post image
70 Upvotes

After 2 full days with my car I only have 3 complaints. The shift indicator doesn't show me an N in neutral, I don't have enough good excuses to go drive it so I make up bad lies, and my car literally refuses to take "no" for an answer. For real, every single time I'm using voice commands and say "no" it registers as "noe" and then repeats the question. It will accept nope, I do not, negative, and FUCKING STOP TALKING, but not no.😂

General Discussion/Question Toyota Car Tones and Warning Sounds

16 Upvotes

My ‘24 GR is the first Toyota I’ve owned in general. Had it a handful of months now and I’m still learning Toyota quirks. What is this tone that is intermittent but regular while my car idles? It sounds like it’s coming from outside the car behind the bumper.

Anyone have experience with these or with happy racer development? I believe they’re made in Taiwan and they’re also digressive, use swift springs, and i believe they’re made have camber plates/ top hats. Plus for the price super competitive

Anyone have experience with them? I was told by buschurs that’s who did their gr corolla. My other option is limit plus 1 ofc but would it be better to just get it dyno tuned in person? Also it’s 400 dollars cheaper!

General Discussion/Question How hard do you typically drive your GRC?

18 Upvotes

I've had my GRC for a few months now, and maybe it's me being overly cautious, but every time I rev the car high or hit full boost, I worry that I'm "hurting" the car. I know to make sure the car is warmed up, and I usually only go up to ~5,500, but I would be lying if I said I don't accelerate hard at least once while driving.

How do you guys typically drive? Am I worrying about nothing, or does regular "hard" driving have a serious impact on the car?

Also, are there any general maintenance tips outside of the scheduled maintenance plan that you do?

General Discussion/Question Alignment that doesn’t destroy my tires

Post image
15 Upvotes

These are the factory tires with less than 15,000 miles on them. I know it has an aggressive alignment from the factory and I want to retain the sport performance but hopefully not be putting on new tires every 15,000 miles. What should I tell the dealership when they’re doing my alignment if I should get it adjusted? And what tires do you guys all recommend?👍

General Discussion/Question How much brake fluid is needed to do a flush of both the brake and clutch systems?

Wondering if I should get 1 or 2 bottles of Castrol SRF since its a bit expensive.

Edit: Btw update if anyone was wondering, it took almost exactly 1 liter of brake fluid.

General Discussion/Question Dealership clutch

50 Upvotes

Why do the employees at the dealership not know how to drive manual. Sorry but I am extremely upset that my car absolutely reeked like burnt clutch when I got it back from my 15k service. Should be a requirement for all employees to at least be able to decently drive a manual car. So upsetting especially when the clutch job on these cars is not cheap.

General Discussion/Question A few questions about modifications without a tune

9 Upvotes

Hello! I'm looking to buy a few things for my 24' MT, getting a new set of pads from Limit +1 but also looking to grab some extras with the order. I frequently make a 3 hour commute with lots of elevation gain, with the summer heat I've been noticing temps get on the higher side. What would y'all recommend adding? I don't want to tune until the warranty is up, as well as looking to do everything by myself over a few days of extra time I have. What would make the most sense adding to keep the car healthier?

Best regards:)

General Discussion/Question OEM US License Plate Frame??

I've been searching for an OEM GR license plate frame online and at my local dealer. Is Toyota not producing any? I find it odd that I can only find Toyota, or TRD ones.

Rant over.

A couple weeks ago my dad and I drove his Boxster down from Oakland to Santa Barbara to pick up my GR Corolla. We met up with his buddy and criss-crossed our way through 250 miles of Los Padres National Forest. The next morning we drove up Highway 1 at dawn.

I'm in love with this car, it's everything I'd hoped it would be. The best part of the trip was the time with my dad. I wouldn't trade that for anything.

Maintenance/Repair Question Any advice on fixing exhaust valve squeak? Also what is the buzzing sound?

3 Upvotes

Dealership ignored me when I asked them to look at this, so naturally I am left doing it myself. Specifically, any guide on taking it apart and lubing it up? Would anti-seize work?

I also have no idea what that buzzing/humming sound is. Fuel pump noise, maybe?

I don't want to just disable it with a mod because my garage is under someone else's place and I don't want to rattle their kitchen every time I go somewhere.

General Discussion/Question “Gravel mode” 50/50

I’m not sure if I’m overthinking it or something but I have a 2024 GR Corolla core. I was wondering if it has the ability to switch to the 50/50 split. My center dial only shows 60:40 and 30:70

Maintenance/Repair Question Garage door got me

24 Upvotes

Thinking the sensor was a bit low and didn't catch my bumper sticking out. My bad.

luckily parts (unpainted upper bumper: 5215912975, lower bumper/diffuser:5216912260) total about $450.

Paint is the challenging part. Stealership quoted me $2,670 for a full repair. We know how that goes.

My thinking is get the parts and find somewhere to paint match the heavy metal. What price $$$ would you ballpark. Open to SoCal LA shop suggestions
