      Hey Mr.Kilmer, my 2004 Ford f150s oil gauge is fluctuating. I’ve changed the oil and changed the oil pressure sensor, yet it still fluctuates. Could you give me any advice on what it could be?

      Scotty, recently got a '12 Honda CR-V FWD. Currently has 78k miles and runs extremely well. During first oil change, I noticed the old oil smelled like gasoline. Also noticed I'm getting slightly less MPG than advertised. No leaks on ground or around engine. I was told it could be blowby and should do a crankcase clean, but I'm not sure this is the issue. Researching sends me in circles. Any idea what's going on?

    I have the 2019 version of this car with the CVT in this color. Honestly, the CVT in it isn't half bad compared to many other cars I've driven with a CVT. Toyota engineering a physical first gear into the transmission that eliminates most of the lag you'd have with a traditional CVT. It is also fairly responsive - obviously not the same as an automatic/manual transmission but much better than any other CVT I've driven. I honestly love this car and am looking forward to owning it for many years to come.

    About those codes that "don't mean anything whatsoever", I drive a 2019 jeep cherokee. Out of the blue, the odometer started blinking. I ignored it for a few months but eventually had the time to get it fixed. Long story short, "the front sensor couldn't reliably communicate with the rear sensor and the rear sensor couldn't communicate with the main computer." They kept my car for 10 days and the grand total was $2600. My only saving grace was that my car is certified 7/100k and i have a wraparound warranty for everything else. I paid $100. Those stupid electronic communication codes can get expensive.

      Strongly agreed with this. What I want, and have wanted for years, is a hybrid version of the Corolla hatchback. But they just wont give us one in America dangit! Stick the new drivetrain from the latest gen Prius IE; the one that gets almost 200hp and lots of torque with 55+MPG and youd have an incredible car!!! To me that would be the ideal all around commuter car. But Toyota just wont give it to us. I think they want to prop up Prius sales as well as sales for the new Cross hybrid. Thinking from the perspective of a Toyota exec I imagine a corolla hatch hybrid would eat into those other models sales numbers and dilute their product line that already does well in NA. Still frustrating though.

Better let it be a flash in the pan, unique, desirable trait on corollas of a certain vintage than for it to become a meme. How sad it would be if that electric blue became as commonplace on Toyotas as that universal maroon/burgundy color that has been all over Toyotas since the early-2000s.

I wanted the 6 speed & a new one but it was hard to find one of any kind. If you goose it it takes off like a rocket compared to other CVT'S. Not a race car but plenty of power for the mpg.

Plus, the eCVT is simple and indestructible. Watched a video of a guy pulling 16k pounds with a prius. The engine would give out before the eCVT would. Driving in the city with a manual is no fun. My first few cars were manual, and they were fun until I was in a traffic jam.

    I owned a 2005 Matrix with the 5-speed manual. I only traded it in on a new Subaru Forester in late 2014 because I wanted a manual transmission in a smaller AWD SUV. Nowadays, Subaru has done away with the manual transmission in the Forester, so I'd get a RAV-4 if I only wanted 2 rows. But since I need 3 rows and the third row being for adults, I'm thinking I'll get the new Grand Highlander in a few years.

I wouldn’t have any worries purchasing a Toyota-made CVT.

      Not all CVTs are created equal. When I last bought a car I test drove a Dodge Caliber. It had a CVT and was horrible to drive. Felt really sluggish. I ended up with a Mitsubishi Lancer (also with CVT) and it is really peppy and fun to drive.

    I used to have a 2016 Toyota Corolla LE with the CVT transmission, it had 35k miles and it drove light a brand new car until I traded it in at 105k miles as I wanted to get a Corolla with the Adaptive cruise.
    Currently have a 2017 Toyota Corolla SE with the CVT transmission and got it at 55k miles and I now have 110k with no issues. I had the transmission fluid changed on both of these cars at intervals of 60k miles and have had no issues with any part of the car but one of the most important is no issues with the CVT. I’m gonna get this little K313 CVT to 200k miles ✊🏻 corollas are such little beast, I’m partial to the 2014-2019, the back seat is hugh, can get over 40MPH on the freeway and it had all the advanced safety technology. I’m defiantly happy!!

    I like the hatchback design, just wish that the hybrid version will come to the US (that or the Aygo) (I like hybrid). Can't afford the 23/24 prius (though i wish i could). But at least i got a good deal on a used 21 corolla hybrid with amazing avg milage though compare to my old car so no complaint there.

  • @HR-wd6cw
    @HR-wd6cw 9 місяців тому +1

    I don't know if they still make them, but I think the Corollas with the physical launch gear made sense. Yes I know they drive (feel) differently than a typical automatic or even manual trans car, but I think they do get even better gas milage (manual transmissions, from an economy standpoint, really don't hold up to the expectation they used to -- where they got better gas mileage than their automatic equivalents, since CVTs and modern automatics have gotten so good with shifting and the computers, in many cases, they get better gas mileage than cars that had manual transmission. But yes, you do loose the "fun" factor with the CVTs and automatics. Personally, since I have to periodically drive in traffic (think traffic jams) I much prefer the automatics anyway myself. And really, I'm still quite amazed that my 2020 Camry with the automatic trans can get 40+ MPG on the highway, and it's not even a hybrid (it does have the smaller 4 cylinder engine but they did give it enough torque at least and probably has more power than a typical V6 engine from 10-15 years ago, but it's still very economical. Even their V6 is quite good I think with about 30-32 mpg average).
    Scotty May also want to check the new Camry's. It does seem that the new (2024) Camry may have a CVT only, so if you wanted a geared automatic, you may need to look for a 2022-2023 or older. Hence one of the reasons I am keeping my 2020 Camry until I absolutely have to get rid of it (which hopefully is a long time from now...) I just hope the 2.5L "D4S" design is as reliable as the previous generation Camry's which I still see a lot of them on the road (many from the mid-2000's even so about 15-20 years old).

    The Corolla hatch I believe was originally a Scion IM. When they discontinued Scion they called it a Toyota. Then they matched it to mimic the front of a Corolla Sedan with the hatchback. At least that is the evolution in Canada, no Matrix involved. Maybe they are all on the same platform but Corolla Hatch used to be a Scion.

    *The NA comes with 191 bhp (as of 2023), and the Turbo has 257hp (on 91).*

      CVTs aren't so bad. Don't push it till you get to 5mph, than give 2/3 throttle and it'll pull at 4000rmp all the way to 85 without skipping a beat (or shifting). I drive a Nissan Versa Note 200 miles per day, with its far inferior CVT, and I won't go back to a manual. CVT for daily driving, dual clutch for a toy. Unless I buy a GR Corolla. That's a manual I'd be happy to drive every day.

The hybrid is much quieter at low speed but once on the highway, noise becomes very loud.
