The front driver side door is loose on my 2005 Toyota Corolla CE. Instead of locking in place, I have to use a leg to prop door when getting out. Has anybody successfully tightened the bolts/screws? Thanks for the suggestions.

Well, it's been a couple of weeks with the new fuel injectors. Check engine light "off" but came back briefly eight days later for a few hours. Car has new burst of energy and smoothly shifts gears. The one disappointment is fuel economy. Have not seen any uptick in MPG.

Just completed changing out fuel injectors to my '05 Corolla. No gas leak at initial test. . Lots of gunk around the cylinder head and old injector 'O' rings. Cleaned injector holes prior to new install. Surprised how easy to remove/install injectors from rail. Several videos showed tighter...

Thanks for replies/suggestions. Fuel injectors are original with 237,810 miles. About eight months ago check engine light came back on. My mechanic did full diagnostic and found hairline crack in MAF. Replaced. At same time he performed full fuel system flush including injectors and intake...

Currently drive '05 Corolla with 272,000+ miles. Average about 21,000 miles per year while working. Anybody know or have read about 1st or 2nd generation Toyota or Honda hybrids surpassing the 150,000 threshold/

After reading replies I realized the key component is the battery cells. Glad to hear whole battery may not be needed. Replace one or two cells could do the trick. A friend who commutes daily with his Prius told me about a repair shop that exclusively services hybrids told him hybrids make...

I'm retiring a a couple of years and wanted to know if a hybrid would make a good choice. Several working friends drive them and are very pleased. Do hybrid engines require daily use to keep them operating efficiently? Thanks for the imput.

At 248,000 miles, I have a small leak in right rear shock. Looking to replace both rear shocks on my 2005 Toyota Corolla CE. I've seen good reviews for Klimeo K45EO38RH and Sensen 1880RS. Exact fit and both under $60 for the pair. Not familiar with these brands, but wondering if other...

Here's a pic of my original antenna and the crumbling/peeling rubber.

My 2005 Toyota Corolla CE roof antenna is crumbling/peeling just above the base(exposing the flexible coil spring) after ten years of outdoor weather. Has anybody replaced their mast with this Chinese made replacement? Looks just like the OEM at 16" in length. I'm curious if this one will...

My friend will take a look at door panel(remove) and examine in daylight to see what's going on. Also look into Civic forums.

My co-worker has a 96 Honda Civic EX Coupe. The motorized driver-side window keeps jumping out of track. We sprayed some silicone lubricant to help window slide easier. Working the silicone in does help, but still frequently jumps out of track at bottom and near top. Motor is good. What...

Thanks Yamaki. Can he replace broken rollers or is new regulator needed?

Just finished new radio install! Wooowee! It works fine thanks to my friends' soldering skills. Since the factory antenna in dash was extremely short, decided to slit and peel away plastic housing, strip wires to match those of antenna extension. Checked connections with volt meter and...

Splice and soldering the universal antenna extension cable to factory antenna will be attempted this Sunday if my assistant is available. I'm going to solder and wrap shielded wires, then do same to bare wires. Plug extension cable into new radio with wiring harness and complete install...

Took broken connector to a car audio salon. Says Toyota put a resistor in connector to help factory radio with static/reception. While looking where it broke off, accidently dropped it in radio hole. :sigh: Dug around shop and found spare Motorola connector. (See new pix with my crude...

Hi 68 Custom and all. This is the connector part(pin) from the factory radio antenna. The wire coming out of connector pin (about 1") remains firmly attached to it. I believe it broke off because my friend assisting me pulled wire instead of pinching metal clips. Wondering if wire can be...
