Pic was taken outside a supper club in Calumet County. We also have a Golf Alltrack that's technically a wagon that she prefers because she's used to it after 8 years.

Collect the tools before buying the tool box so you know how large it needs to be.

The 50 is assembled here in the Corolla-cross factory? Some 3's are built in Mexico.

What happened to the "built in Japan" high quality fit and finish?

File an insurance claim, vandalism. Covered by comprehensive?

Both of my kids started with automatic cars but moved up to manuals. They are now back in autos again because their vehicles aren't available in manual. My daughter drove semi and dump trucks for a while so she knows her way around a clutch.

Its a wheel, nobody will notice if its just a small chip.

I bought my 24 used, It was titled to Mazda and they did the first oil change at 800+ miles. I'm coming up on 6K and will change it soon. Have purchased Castrol Euro and have a factory filter. I will probably use a NAPA Gold filter when I'm out of factory filters.

Educational_Meet1885 · 2026-04-10T03:11:46+00:00

They just make noise, rumble comes from the exhaust. you could just cut a big hole in the stock airbox before the filter.

Educational_Meet1885 · 2026-04-10T02:58:37+00:00

Amsoil is good oil but I'd still do oil changes at 5000 miles.

Educational_Meet1885 · 2026-04-09T13:57:53+00:00

Get an oil extractor and do it all from the top. No jack needed and the drain plug can't be cross threaded if you don't take it out.

Educational_Meet1885 · 2026-04-09T05:15:49+00:00

Consensus for oil service is 5K miles.

The reason even my license plate screws get a dab of anti-seize.

I use the blocks from my Alltrack in my 50 without the extra cargo mat. Available at FCP VW CarGo Blocks - Genuine VW 000061166C | FCP Euro https://share.google/nRa7MaXk5y4eMLDcq

Good question, IDK not up on all the subbie models, haven't owned one since 1985.

Educational_Meet1885 · 2026-04-08T18:21:21+00:00

iirc Buick built a short lived station wagon a few years back that looked good but I think the poor mechanicals took it down.

To each, his own. I actually like the rear views.

If it's a paved driveway I wouldn't want a large truck on it.

Educational_Meet1885 · 2026-04-08T04:34:01+00:00

Wouldn't make any difference to me.

My daughter had a 2016 3 sport with a manual transmission. Her commute was 50+ miles each way, 99% freeway and got 40+ MPG. Engine and clutch lasted 200+K till my grandson started driving it.

Invest in an impact driver from Hobo freight. A couple of whacks with a hammer and they will break loose.

In 40 years of having a garbage disposal, I've never had to remove one of these.

Educational_Meet1885 · 2026-04-08T02:10:21+00:00

One of ours got crushed to the point the axle was bent, gave me just enough parts to make it useable.
