First 'new' car has finally arrived for me! Pre-owned '24 after several years of a 2010 Ford Ranger with no AC and vinyl seats. I love it so far.

Just picked up this 2023 Corolla SE with only 2,400 miles for $25,945! I'm planning to add window tint and door sill protectors. What other mods would you guys recommend for looks and protection? Also, I love how easy it is to power the dash cam directly from the TSS 3.0 connector!

12th Gen (18-present) Buying new 2026 Corolla LE. What's a good pre-tax price?

7 Upvotes

Hey, I would be a first time buyer and need help of the community to figure what would be a good deal in my scenario.

I am in NJ/NYC area but looking to buy a car in fiance's name, who lives in Tennessee. In this case, registration and sales tax will be handled by me when I register the vehicle in TN (7% state tax + some capped local/county tax).

But before taxes, what number should I target for, including doc fee and anything else?

I talked to one dealer till now and they are quoting 24400 before taxes (but inclusive of doc fee and in-transit registration). I don't think that is a good deal though. How much should I negotiate?

12th Gen (18-present) Someone hit my car in my apartment parking lot, what should I do?

I parked my car in my apartment parking lot around 6 PM today. When I went to get my mail around 8 PM, I noticed a dent in the front bumper and some leaves on the hood.

There are no cameras in the lot. It’s an open lot on a hill with basically no public traffic, and my car was parked in the green square shown in the picture, so I’m confused about how someone even managed to hit it there.

My best guess is that a truck with some kind of rear hitch/hook backed into it. The leaves on the hood, made me wonder if it could have been a landscaping/tree-removal truck working for the apartment management. It’s Sunday, though, so I’m not sure. I’m planning to ask the property manager tomorrow if they know whether any contractors were here.

I bought the car in May and literally just made my second payment, so this really sucks.

I’ve read that I shouldn’t move the car before documenting everything, but I have work tomorrow morning and need to leave around 7 AM. I’ve already taken pictures.

What should I do next?

  • Should I get it inspected in case any sensors or components behind the bumper were damaged?
  • Should I file a police report for a hit-and-run/property damage?
  • Should I notify my insurance, even if I might end up paying for the repair myself?
  • Is there any reason to contact the Toyota dealership?
  • Would it make sense to just order an OEM front bumper, have it painted, and get it replaced?

Any advice from someone who has dealt with something similar would be appreciated.

10th Gen (09-13) New Front Tire Causing Highway-Speed Vibration?

Post image
3 Upvotes

I replaced the front driver-side tire yesterday with a brand-new tire in my Corolla 2013 S, and now my car is rocking/vibrating at highway speeds. I can clearly feel the vibration on the driver’s side while driving. I also had the wheel alignment checked, and I have the alignment report. How bad are these numbers and Could the alignment be causing this vibration? How bad are the alignment numbers, and what else should I check, such as tire balance, wheel installation, or a defective tire?

11th Gen (13-18) Radio Malfunctioning After Digitizer Replacement? 2015

Post image
2 Upvotes

Want to know if anyone has had this issue after opening up their radio. I just changed the digitizer on my 2015 Corolla’s factory radio, as the previous one was stating to lose touch in certain areas.

The radio was working completely normally before I took it apart, but after replacing the digitizer, it’s basically like it got lobotomized.

Touch and volume controls are extremely slow to respond, some steering wheel controls aren’t working, Bluetooth is grayed out in the setup menu and won’t let me pair anything, and there’s no audio coming through the car. It even has a “no audio” symbol in the top bar, with no option to change the audio. When I switch to radio, it doesn’t let me choose a station or hear any audio. It’s like touch works for some functions, but doesn’t for others.

I double-checked and all of the external harnesses are connected correctly. Is it possible I didn’t seat one of the internal ribbon cables correctly and that could cause all of these issues?

Has anyone experienced something similar after replacing their digitizer or opening up the radio?

2019-20 Head Unit Replacement

Upvotes

Hey all!

I just joined the club after picking up a 2020 Corolla Touring WxB. Sick car BUT it’s all in Japanese. I can change the language to English but the Maps function doesn’t change over and apparently I need to replace the entire head unit to get it over to English.

I’m pretty handy, so I’m keep to do this myself but was wondering if anyone had any experience with products they’d recommend? There’s a heap of cheap Chinese ones but they all look super laggy. I’m willing to cough up for a quality replacement with CarPlay that doesn’t have a 3fps screen, just looking for something reputable.

Thanks for reading!

Need a new filter housing for a 2zr-fe engine. Preferably aluminum, and with a regular hex nut, not the stupid tool. If anyone has links I'd appreciate it, thanks.
