Problems with corolla -
Nothing - 130k and going strong.
CD player skips occasionally.
Although the design of the car is dated - everything else is perfect.
Breaks were checked at 125 k - 70% still good!
The car cruises nicely at 110 on cruise control and gets 40 + mpg.
Only servicing has been regular oil changes and air filter. original tires replaced at 125 k.
I have a lot of confidence in this car and expect it to make 300k + when I will replace it as I like the new models.
My Corolla's CD player skips too. Only seems to do it on the first few tracks.
Otherwise, brilliant car.
You are fortunate with your 2000 Corolla CE. Similarly, I have a 1991 Honda with 202,000 miles on it and it has required only scheduled maintenance. Unfortunately, I also own a 2000 Corolla VE, bought used one month ago with 51,000 miles on it, that is already showing the excessive oil consumption often mentioned in forums. Nearly bone dry after only 800 miles. Very frustrating.
I think if you are prepared to run it "nearly bone dry" to prove a point made on Toyota Nation, you probably deserve bad things to happen to your cars.
