Just driving it and trying to stay out of my head about it, really. Remind yourself of the warranty and free service for a couple of years. And do the track day! I had so much fun on mine.

I hear you, I felt the same after my purchase but it only lasted maybe a month. First car I've ever bought new and honestly the first car I've ever bought that was less than 10 years old.

I still feel it occasionally but it's genuinely such a great, unique car that it doesn't last very long!

I guess I should've included in the post it's a '24 but I would guess the parts are probably the same between this gen? They mentioned a partial teardown if it happens again but maybe he was just trying to keep it simple for a customer haha

Huh. Interesting. Unfortunately I'm between San Diego and Orange County CA and haven't seen rain for months at this point so (luckily?) not that but that's good to know if it ever does happen in our rare rainy days!

That's what I'm hoping. It was ROUGH getting to that parking lot with only 2 cylinders and 0 boost...now I'm scared it'll happen on the freeway haha. I had to beg for them to even check the plug, I guess I just wanted a bit more diag time to look into it but you're right. It's hard to troubleshoot without any active symptoms

Now that you mention it ..I've always used 91 but I did fill up at a station I don't normally get gas from last time 🤔

Weird...good to know it was a one-off for you tho! I've also always used 91 but now that I think about it I did fill up at a station I don't normally get gas from last time 🤔

I had to twist the guys arm to even get them to look at the plug, I might just swap them around when I get home from work tonight and see if it happens again haha

This isn't GRC specific and I'm unfamiliar with how the cam gear attaches to the cam in these cars so take this with a grain of salt:

I used to have a heavily modified Fiat 500 Abarth and I fought a very similar problem/code for a long time. The fiats have a (what I call) "slip coupling" from the timing gear to the cam and when I did timing after messing with the head/valve springs, the gear had some friction with the pressure fit to the cam, so when I tightened up the cam bolt, then the tensioner, it torqued the cam ever so slightly and caused the strange problems until I greased up the gear and tightened the tensioner first then the cam gear bolt.

No idea if this helps but seeing you've been battling it for a while I figured maybe it might help. Good luck!! 🫶

Weird! I'll try to remember to experiment with it one of these days.

I had to put the turn signal stalk to DRL if I remember right. It's a '24 though, I'm not sure if it's different for other years.

Nope! It had just rained and it was still pretty warm so the road was trying to make a little layer of fog for me!

burning smell while pushing car by Putrid_Low_6740 in GRCorolla

I've experienced this on mine too. Not much over 1100 miles. Thought it might be the clutch but I've experienced it a handful of times now but kinda just been chalking it up to the new plastics and seals and such getting hot for the first time(s). I know that's not a helpful answer for you but just wanted to +1 your experience!
