Your dollar isn't "weak" as far as its value is concerned on the currency trading floors around the world. Against other currencies it's not weak. We all know it's valuation is a con considering the US is a financial basket case due to extreme debts (federal, state, local as well as individual)...

It's not our currency, we've been paying a lot more than US consumers have as long as I can remember. Our dollar right now is trading around 83 cents to the US dollar mostly due to the lower price of oil traded on the NY exchange & perhaps also Brent Crude prices. When oil was trading at or...

I live in Canada and Toyota doesn't consider Canada severe service. I've never been told that by a dealer..I just had the oil changed and the next oil service sticker says Nov 14 roughly on the windshield. Our owners manuals give both options as far as service goes just like you folks...

Good morning, the appointment went well. They did perform the service and there wasn't any charge. I watched the mechanic drain the oil, remove the filter etc & he went over the underside of the car looking for any problems, checked the tire pressure. They said it doesn't matter to them that I...

Evening to everyone that responded & thanks a lot for furthering my knowledge. I hate the idea of wasting oil, but I can't seem to get that old way of thinking out of my head about making the first oil change a lot sooner rather than later. We do plan on trying to keep this car for at least 10...

Morning folks, we bought a 2015 corolla at the end of March & included was 4 years of "free" oil lube & filters. My question is simple enough for a lot of you but we're getting up there & I haven't kept up with the times when it comes to oil changes. I set up an appointment for tomorrow...

Thanks to everyone, I'll set up an appointment to change the fluid & filter. Much appreciate the help folks.

2010 Corolla Automatic. 33,000 miles on it. The car went into service the end of October 2010 so that's 3 years & 8 months. Someone mentioned if it hasn't been changed every two years or 24,000 kilometres or around 15,000 miles, transmission fluid shouldn't be changed because it could cause...

Thanks for the tip, appreciate it.

I asked earlier about the corolla. Now about my 2003 Crown Victoria with the 4.6L v8. The vic has 162,00 klm or 100,667 miles on it. I've had the car since 07 & have had the oil changed every 3200 miles. The owners manual says SAE 5W-20 Motorcraft Premium Synthetic Blend 6 quarts, Ford Spec...

Thanks folks, appreciate all the help.

Hello, I recently bought a 2010 Corolla Sport with the 1.8 L engine & 4 speed auto transmission. First the info that may help. The car has 32,000 miles on it. 95 % of my driving is highway & I typically drive 50 to 65 mph. Most trips are 15 minimum miles as I live in a rural area. I live in...
