Well thanks for your input those that have tried them good to hear one way or the other more snake oil on the market so to speak, I had a similar experience with motor up no difference what so ever $39.99 down the drain so to speak that was when i had the MPV.

Hi all, i was wondering if any one has used a magnetic fuel saver device that clips onto the fuel line they are selling here in NZ for $20 >80 i found an interesting web site about using magnets to save fuel http://www.tinet.org/~sje/mag_fuel.htm just wonder if these things actually work? i'd be interested to know.

Not sure about Australia but here in N Z the only other color other than the black lettering on white is RED lettering try checking with the licensing authority who issue P Plates.

How does it drive at low speed with the O/D off ? try it and see if there is any difference not sure about the reprogramming of the AT shift, haven't herd of anyone wanting to do the but would be interested to know if it can be done.

While under warranty, Toyota demand that you ONLY use ATF that meets JWS3309 spec. This means Toyota T-IV ATF or Mobil 3309 ATF Having said this, there are quite a few better fluids that are "compatible" with Toyota auto trans requiring T-IV. Examples include AMSOIL universal ATF, Penrite SIN ATF, Castrol Import ATF just to name a few ... It really depends on whether you are still under factory warranty or not My old MPV was playing up in the trans was making funny noises and slipping when cold I got it serviced $210.00 and it went fine but the shop that did the job said it was showing signs of wear as there were debris in the filter your corolla may just need a service.

Sounds like big bucks for a tow bar they are averaging $300.00 fitted here in NZ wiring extra but it is easy to D I Y I had the dealer get one fitted when I brought my 97 Spacio but they had to get one made from an engineering firm here in town not sure what the cost was but you might like to try some engineering places where you live could be a lot cheaper or a tow bar -exhaust specialist check your yellow pages???

Thanks for that seams I have no middle resonator just the CAT and large rear muffler the reason I am asking is I think the fuel economy is not as good as it could be but I haven't had the car long. I have got hold of a owners manual and they state the fuel economy to be about 13k/L or about 650K per tank 50L. I will keep an eye on the consumption and see. Yes it is an import we are flooded with them here in NZ.

Hi there just wondering if any one knows the exhaust set up for a 97 corolla mine seams to have only one rear baffle no middle resonator just a strait pipe from the manifold?? Appreciate any help.
