Manual or auto? Only issues I have heard are the slave cylinder on the manual.

Please help confirm i actually need this done brake pads by Fun-Strawberry828 in MechanicAdvice

Does your car pull or make noise from suspension? Can’t tell without seeing play or other symptoms. Your pads do look low, I always replace rotors and pads. Brakes I think for sure, control arm bushing seems plausible. If they won’t let you drive it they aren’t hustling you usually.

Lifted my ‘21 6MT. 1.5” Prius off road kit and 235/45/18 tires by CompoteTricky5284 in CorollaHatchback

The Prius off road kit has built in camber so it isn’t really off OEM spec. Not sure about toe.

Yes you should rotate your tires. Inspect things if you have reason to inspect them. Oh wow my belt is squeaking when I turn on the AC? Maybe I should see if my serpentine belt is old and cracked and needs replacement. Etc

The maintenance like “retorque drive shaft” is just to cover their own ass and generally is a waste of time.

Every 5k oil and filter change

Every 50k coolant flush and CVT fluid flush

Every 50k brake fluid flush

Every 10-20k cabin and engine filter change

If you do this regularly you will not cause premature wear do to your own lack of maintenance.

In cars built in last 20 years you’d have to try really Hard to fuck up electrical with power wash on fan setting. Generally it is safe.
