2004 Toyota Corolla 160i GLE review from South Africa
"Good car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Engine Noise - This was high from the start, especially between 3000 and 5000 rpm at any speed or in any gear. I complained to Toyota South Africa, but they seemed to agree that the engine noise was the right one!
General comments?
+ Car is extremely reliable. Never a single problem from purchase time at 0km to 90,000km.
+ Only complaint is with engine noise, which is a bit higher than I think.
