The NZE Corolla Thread

[_Rajiv_]

yea fellers i now looking to join the toyota gang looking to sell my b15 an get ah nze (2004-2006) i does drop my cars flat on the ground so i wanna know if the suspension would hold up good and what other problems i should expect

Good upgrade from the B15 to the NZE.

As to advise you on how long suspension components would hold out when dropping the vehicle flat on the ground, never had and experience with that though, however one can assume that the wear and tear on the components would be accelerated.

But why would you want to drop the car flat in the ground? Wouldn't that restrict the amount of places you would be able to go?

Anybody know where I can get eye Lids .... For a fielder is the big light one

The intent here if executed spells the end of the suspension capability.
Vehicles with these downgrades which take them off spec. may look attractive to certain individuals but cause most others to cringe in pain and if the car could talk it would be using expletives 'like that'.

Good cars doh bonx it body parts impossible to get

I changed the front wheel bearings on my 5yo local nze 3 mths ago.
Now it sounds as if the bearings making noise again. Is that normal for wheel bearing to go bad in such a short period of time?
And should i pay TTTL $675 a bearing to replace them with originals?

Will be doing this just now, would rather get the original bearings

[toyolink]

I may not have shared this previously hence this post.
-When changing front wheel bearings,please do proper inspection of hub for distorted wear since installation of a new wheel bearing on a even slightly distorted hub will result in premature bearig failure.
My experience with these vehicles indicates that the aftermarket bearings sold are prone to damaging the hub when they go bad and even if you invest in a new original bearing, destruction of the unit is going to take place quickly.
This has happened on so many occasions that this possibility must not be over-looked.
The common denominator on all instances was a low-end replacement bearing.

[Kronik]

^will the distorted hub be visibly damaged? Right now the bearings not terrible or anything, but I know the sound of bad bearings, and it sounds like they are starting to wear, checked a couple months ago for any wheel play, non detected. Original bearings from factory still.

Anyone know the part number for the original wheel bearings, or the price locally? 2002 NZE, big single headlight one

[toyolink]

PM sent which addresses pricing of wheel bearing also.

[Nasho]

Anyone know where I can get lowering spring or coillover for fielder 06 .

[searchingone]

Does anyone know where I can get a PCV hose to buy? part number #12262

experiencing a loud crackling/rattling sound from the engine bay of a 2002 NZe when driving, nothing when idling...any ideas?

[V2NR 3.0]

What body oil are you using ?

[konartis]

What body oil are you using ?

not sure but its smelling really burnt, noise isnt there when on park idling, only on acceleration...

[V2NR 3.0]

I am pretty sure of two things:

1. You're using the wrong body oil. These engines run in 10w 30 to say the absolute minimum. A lot of persons use 20w which is too thick for this engine.

Try changing your oil to 10w - this is the easiest way to start trouble shooting. I had this exact same problem and did the following:

1. I cleaned the oil sump and strainer - noise was still there.

2. I checked timing chain - noise was still there.

3. I checked the injectors to make sure the car was not leaning out or "knocking" - noise was still there.

At the end - I was using the wrong body oil. You see, a lot of persons use the 20w oil which is too heavy to be able to reach in all the spaces and this leads to rattle noise.

I changed oil and noise stopped immediately.

[konartis]

ok will try the oil first, just to get it clear its a loud crackling/rattling sound when driving, going up hill its pretty loud

[konartis]

went to the mech today and he said its the knock sensor....so i may have to get one, any ideas where to look? its a 2002 corolla 1nzfe engine...btw do this type of engine run on super or premium?

[V2NR 3.0]

The recommended fuel is Premium. It is proven that these engines are at optimum performance when premium is used. Off course, Trinidadians being Trinidadians would use Super.

I use Premium all the time and never had issues except with the one mentioned above.

[cinco]

Btw knock sensors go bad due to some other problem normally. It may just be a victim of some other issue

Hi guys,I need a little help with my NZE, I've had it for 4 yrs, great car, the steering rack giving me some problems though.
I've changed it twice before, and I was recently informed that it can be rebuilt.
Has anyone ever rebuilt their steering rack, who does it and does it work good when rebuilt?

Constant velocity limited (652 7902) repairs these steering racks

What are the problems you are encountering though?

[Team Loco]

I so love these cars I wish I can own one again. My sis has a fully loaded local but she doesnt appreciate it. I replaced the main belt for her but it still squeaks even though its tight. Its an american made belt. Good quality. Any ideas what I should do?

[Ted_v2]

Tensioner?

[toyota2nr]

I know usually after installing the belt it squeals for a while and then you have to tighten it again. After installation it stretches a bit I think.
