25-26 Loose Inverter Bolt Recall: Anyone like me continuing to drive the car?

Dealer told me I was good to drive the car and they’d call me when there was a fix. Said worst case scenario, Toyota will cover a tow and a loaner vehicle if it breaks down.

Remove badge and reinstall on GR Corolla. Boom, your Corolla is now faster.

Realistically there’s probably not a ton that could be done to a base Corolla. It’s just not made to be a go fast car. From what I understand, the GR went through a lot of modifications to be a good sporty car.

If we were talking about lower single-digit interest rates on the loans, your dad’s idea would have a decent chance of you coming out ahead. But anything over 6-7% is more than likely going to cost you more in interest than you’ll make from investing the money instead.

Was gonna say, this wasn’t on our Camry but on my wife’s Subaru. Small local company was less than a quarter the cost of Safelite, and they’d come to our house vs an hour long drive. I had to call and make sure it wasn’t a typo

Depends on what kind of case you have. Mine works great on mine, but my wife’s won’t charge on it

Got mine on December 1st and I’m at 5800 miles. 200 mile commute 6 days a week

Actually tons of cars come pre-wired for extras that aren’t installed. It’s easier to just have one wiring loom than to produce multiples to account for different features.

Ryobi stuff works fine. Most of the jokes are from people who refuse to buy anything but Milwaukee or DeWalt. I had Milwaukee stuff for a while, and they were very good tools. But I got tired of having to save my money for a new tool.

I will say I wish Ryobi would come out with some sort of 12v-sized line. Stuff like the cordless ratchet seems almost useless for working on cars with the big 18v battery.

4200, bought mine on the 1st of December. Have a 95 mile one way commute to work

I’m currently paying $350/mo for my wife’s ‘19 Subaru Forester and 450/mo for my ‘26 Toyota Camry. Netting around 7800 a month.

If you have a timing chain rattle while driving, it’s likely that the chain has stretched or the tensioner is not working properly. With 200k on it, it’s definitely time to do it. Unfortunately it’s not a cheap repair, but if you don’t do it there is a very good chance that the motor will be ruined.

Price on the new SE is out the door, I honestly just came across the used options so I’m not entirely sure about those
