1988 Toyota Corolla Station Wagon - FWD from North America - Comments

Normal wear and tear.

Over 11 years/250000 km:

I have put a number of exhaust systems in. That is biggest fault with the Corolla.

Over the past 2 years:

I have put in a new alternator.

I have put in a new clutch.

I have put in a new radiator.

I have put in a new gas tank.

I have put in a new timing belt.

I have put in a new water pump.

I can't believe that I have only had to put in one clutch in over 250,000 km.

Now that I have put in some serious bucks in the last year or so, I expect to at least another couple of years out of the vehicle.

This is one car that will go forever!

You can't believe You have drive over 250.000km with the first clutch. Our Toyota Corolla wagon 1.6 from 1989 has drive over 650.000!km and still going strong.

We have put the second clutch at 450.000km in it.

Once a Year the car will maintained and that's it.

My next car is Over ten Year a Corolla.

I have an 88 Corolla Wagon...400 000+ kms (owned since new) and still going with original clutch. I almost sold it yesterday, but then I had cold feet, cannot bear to leave such a wonderful car! I am going for a million kms.. then maybe Toyota will place her in a museum!

Future maintenance will be: Timing Belt, Radiator, and tires.

Go TOYOTA!!
