Re: tyres

so would you recommend the sailun to a everyday driver ... on an eco car like a corolla. ? ..I tink it may be a good gamble and im tinkin about tryin a pair.. heard someone say its on the same level as a roadstone or nexxen .. and well it runs pretty ok as an everyday tyre on a subaru legacy ..

Re: idle problem after replacing battery 2008 corolla

SOLUTION: Bank 1 Oxygen Sensor 1 .. the guy said the dianostic would'nt pick it up since the car was still able to drive ... However it was in fact the problem since all other checks came up clean... $2000.00 solution. . . Hope this helps someone out in the future.
