Coming from a Corolla hatchback, I clicked so fast on this video as soon as I read the title 😂
Well, as a Toyota owner do you know what I got to say? how sad is this???
Thank you
I sell a bunch of the BG version at work! they've always got mildew build up on the drains
I don’t think I’m capable of doing this myself 😳
Good job 👍🏻
Hello, maybe this is not in brakes topic but it is most recent one, so i have a quite life danger issue about brakes, Lexus IS 250 brake lines, part name Brake Tube Way(front) has been rusted and burst off, lucky for me that it was happend at city, low speed, all MOT's never mentioned about this, i checked brake pipes and look fine, only this tube way (union), joining 2 pipies, it is located 6 inches apart from exhaust, it is not covered by heat shield like brake lines, maybe this is affected by exhaust leaking over ageing, dunno, but this is quite dangerous, i don't know where to report that to toyota's recall system if they have it anyway. cheers
Omg thanks for this video!!! I just been noticing this recently this on my Lexus
AMD! I know this is very off topic, but a good friend and Co-worker of mine just picked up a brand new 2023 Corolla LE (with alot of my backing lol), the M20A-FKS 2.0L is now standard equipment, i was of course checking it out right after he bought it, popped the hood and to my bewilderment saw 0W-8 as the viscosity. i cannot believe how thin that must be, would you be able to do a video on this talking about these very low viscosity fuel economy oils? id really like to hear your take on this, do's & don'ts and just more technical insight on it. Cheers!
Hey AMD great tips on prevention of HVAC smells/ mildew. I typically try to turn off the a/c and crank the fan for the last 5 mins of my drive. Seems to work, when I remember – the ‘auto’ solution sounds better. The hybrid vehicles utilize a heat pump. Would you still advise to set it on auto – could constant switching between ac and heat be problematic for that application?
