  1. I haven't found any service manuals either, really itching to service myself as we all need money.


    Took me a while to scan through the internet, with no luck, but stumbled across this, for those who like to D.I.Y


    - Body Schematics
    - Electrical Schematics
    - Repair Manuals

    Although it is the U.S version zre142, I haven't seen much differences in the bulk of the car model.

    (check already, no viruses)

  2. Just recently rear ended someone with my car, Corolla Levin ZR ZRE152 MY12, and now in the process of it being assessed.

    Just curious on the likeyhood if it will be written off under the damages:

    - Damaged front Bumper/ Fender (Plastic, has to be replaced)
    - Damaged front quarter panel (Metal, has to be replaced)
    - Damaged Rim
    - Damaged Headlamp unit (HID's)
    - No chassis damage
    - No engine, engine bay, radiator, and transmission damage
    - 7000 kms

    Wondering if it will be written off on the basis of uneconomical repairs by the ensurer, as it will possibly cost too much.
    Look forward to hearing your thoughts and opinions.

  3. thats nice clean rolla you've got there mate! good stuff

    wheels, you could get a nice pair of rims or something, but the ones you've got seem decent to run on, i guess, if your tread on your wheels are still good, there's no need to rush, all in good time, haha

    i've been meaning to get some rims too, but too pricey right now, maybe in time.

    since you've lowered, have you thought about upgrading, your sway bar, for them hard corners and turns (;?

  4. when you mean automatically unlock, do you mean, by not touching anything at all, and instantaneously after ignition is turned off?

    what i find common in today's toyota cars are that:

    - once driving above 20 or something kms, and you have not locked your doors, all doors will automatically lock for you (as seen in the recent camrys.)

    - if you unlock your car (with the remote, not sure with driver's control panel) and any door has not been opened within 30 seconds it will automatically lock up again, which you've mentioned. in general preset setting for the cars security (alarm, central locking etc, is 30 secs)

    -with smart entry cars, doors will always automatically unlock and stay unlocked, whilst the key, is within proximity (ie door handle, or inside the area of the car.)

    - when the car is in the locked position, the driver's side will always be unlocked, in the sense that, it will allow you to open the drivers side door, with the handle, without pressing any unlock buttons, when in the locked position, as said above.

    the last one always gets to me, forgetting to unlock the doors, going to the boot to get something, realizing its still locked, having to remotely unlock it again.

    sorry mate, id have to be a bit clueless on this one, i guess if still in doubt, have it checked out with your dealership
