2005 Toyota Corolla XRS 6-speed review from North America
"Lot of repairs and trouble and bad dealer, I will not recommend this car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Engine or transmission vibrating and anormaly noise at high rev. Dealer can't make diagnosis and don't want to investigate more.
Belt have been changed 6 times, and dealer did not found primary problem who cause this excessive wear.
Strong noise coming from upper windshield on highway and water leaking into the car.
2nd and 4th speed hard to enter in temperature below 0 Celsius.
Many rattle sounds, where we don't know the source.

General comments?
The interior of the car is very nice.
Nice audio system.
