Toyota Corolla parts reviews

For a Corolla, mixing one odd tire isn't the end of the world, but if you've already got one Sailun on there, paying the extra $100 to make all four match is usually worth it just for consistent grip and braking especially since you're in NJ and see winter nastiness. Sailuns aren't fancy but they're totally fine for daily driving

My 2018 corolla lasted for 160k miles with zero issues before a truck crashed into me. CVT never let me down.

I used to be a Toyota tech and it was very rare for them to fail, except for the CH-R (which in my opinion is one of the worst Toyotas you can buy). Only ones I saw fail besides those were on very few Corollas with the direct shift CVT. And when I say very few I mean maybe 2-3 per year. The previous gen CVT was basically bulletproof. They are NOWHERE NEAR as bad as Nissans JATCO transmissions.

I have a 2006 corolla, had same problem, just bought a new denso starter and no more troubles. Very easy to put the new one on actually, remove the fan on the front first for more space

Been dealing with Toyota's CVT's since the first 2014 Corolla.

Overall they've been extremely reliable with basic maintenance. I've changed Corolla CVT's two under warranty, one at 80,000 KM because the torque convertor seal was leaking and Toyota didn't offer a replacement at the time so it got an entirely new CVT instead. The second was last year, it hadn't been to a dealer in a decade, hadn't had a Limited Service Campaign (LSC) done nor had it ever had the fluid changed. At 220,000 KM I replaced it under warranty because it had failed likely due to not having the LSC done combined with the original fluid.

I've done a few CH-R CVT's under warranty, the Turkey built ones in particular have been problems and there is a Warranty Enhancement Program for them.

However overall Toyota's various CVT's have held up quite well.

My CVT in my ‘17 Corolla iM is at 95,000 miles. Super solid.

Last yr I bought my 1st car, a 2012 Toyota Corolla Altis. 2.0v variant, so it has a K111 CVT in it. Thankfully barely used by the 1st owner, only 43k km on the dash when I got it, confirmed legit by mechanics and dealership service history.

Now it's at 51k km, basically my daily and only car. Had a trans fluid change done last December, then planning a 2nd one next month to slowly flush out the old fluid.

Aside from underchassis issues, it's been driving ok honestly. I hope it stays this way for a long time.

Just spent $1300 on injectors, getting ready to replace the radiator.

My factory battery died at 30k miles on a 2024 corolla…

Front and rear windows kept fogging up to the point where I had to wipe the windshield with my hand just to see where I was going. Electronics were less than worthless, kept disconnecting phone from car audio
