Hi there, Pick up a ae92 for $300 with original 143,000km on the clock. Ive had it for a few weeks now and i have plans on re-spraying it. Dings and dents have been fixed and I have gutted the entire car out...interior, plastic panels and carpet. The car has been outdoors and just with the on and off rain for the past 2 days I have noticed that both passenger and driver sides on the floor pans there is about half a cup to a cup of water sitting there.

Has this ever happened to anyone or know where its coming from? If so how do I go about fixing it?

When it rains, sit in the car and follow the trail.

Get new doors seals? From Toyota Parts or find some used but ok condition ones at the wreckers???

yep it will happen to all AE92's eventually just like the vents on top of the dash which all cracked right next to the join :lol:

It depends where it's parked and if leaning and that's where the water will run,hard to pinpoint but remove the strip around the windscreen (top) and you will see a few rust spots,then try locate the hole..

Careful of the strip,might need to source another if your too rough,brittle with age..

Got in it today and searched today and it seems like it was dripping on the drivers side somewhere above the fuses on the kick panel.

Plus the drain holes in the doors and the drain channel on the pillars above the door blocked so cleared them out with some wire.

Yeah the seal around the windscreen looks a bit dodge so its most probably the problem.

Ive also got the crack in the vent on the dash your talking about. :P must be a given.

      Brake issues

      BTW forgot to mention that there is no shake in the steering wheel. The 'shudder', really hard to describe but almost like brakes on and off. Cannot identify front or rear or both. Got me totally miffed.

      Brake issues

      Hi everyone, new to this forum - refugee from LCOOL. Had a minor shudder when applying the brakes. Also was somewhat intermittent. Having over 100k on the clock a lot which were done towing a big van, I thought I may have warped a disk. Checked them with a dial gauge but no useful info. Bit the bullet and replaced all 4 with new slotted rotors and pads from DBA. Huge difference in braking. However the shudder has return almost with a vengeance. Thought I fixed the problem when I disconnected the ECU for another unrelated issue. ECU is remapped, car went in limp mode and could not clear it with the scangauge. Problem not fixed and I am lost as to why this is happening. Plan on visiting Berima Diesel later on this year to have the injectors checked and I'll get them to look at the brakes if I still haven't figured it out. Any suggestions would be welcomed. Thank you

      200 series won’t shift past 4th gear

      Hi everyone, new to this forum - refugee from LCOOL. Having read some of the replies, to the best of my knowledge there is no such thing as a minor remap. Toyota in their wisdom have the software in the ECU such that it cannot be downloaded, modified and reloaded. It has to be a complete reload, either stock or modified. All you fellows disconnecting the battery is a good and simple way to try and reset everything but similar results can be achieved by simply disconnecting the ECU. That's the big plug in the firewall passenger side. Meanwhile I may need to start a new topic for the following issues I am experiencing: Had a minor shudder when applying the brakes.

      G’day from NSW

      G’day All just got a 2012 (old shape) Corolla Ascent Hatchback Auto. Needs a few things done, it was my Dads who just passed away. Going to install pioneer head unit (basic one really) as a start, then maybe upgrade speakers but I’ll see how the oem ones go, I’ve read I’ll need at least 50w ones for the pioneer. Front inner plastic guards are a bit trashed along with bumper bar, just need to neaten it up a little. cheers Sparky

      Head Unit Replacement for 2010 Toyota Corolla Hatch

      G’day TGA, hope you got this sorted, just about any 2 din would fit. I’m putting a pioneer one in but I’d like to know how to pull the trims apart to fit it 🤨 Every video shows the sedan with a different gearshift with short trims to remove but those 2 lower side ones are 1 piece on the hatch and I’m struggling. Do I need to remove console box to start removing those side piece. Any help cheers Sparky
