Sirs and yun po ba na eco indicator if ON eh talagang on and off ang indicator nya?thanks sirs

Sir sa 1.6V yung dimmer nasa same button ng trip meter, yung nasa gauge mismo, try mo na lang.

Yung Eco indicator yes on and off lang. Pag naka-on ibig sabihin economical ang driving style o apak mo sa gas. Nagooff kapag humahataw.

kapag inoff mo, di na siya iilaw.

newbie here, question lang po, may naririnig ako na whistling sound everytime na inaapakan ko yung brake, sa 1.6G ko, usually pag nakahinto sya, normal ba yun? Parang banda sa engine compartment ko naririnig banda sa pasenger side.

When you hear the sound, you're already on full stop? If yes, try fully depressing the brake pedal and observe if it still continues to be depressed and check your brake fluid level. You might have a leak.

If you hear the whistling sound while moving and braking, have your pads checked. It might be worn out already.

Though usually, when the car was parked for a long period of time and after a carwash or rain, there's a slight sound but it only lasts afetr a few braking action.

Try having your brakes cleaned first.

What's the maintenance schedule of the ZR engine? Does Toyota implement a 10,000km change oil interval or is it still a 5,000km affair?

AFAIR, with the older models using the ZZ engine (starting with the 9th gen) they first did a 10,000kms service interval which was specified on the owner's manual but when the sludge issue came about, the recommended service interval became 5,000kms (which is the "severe" conditions change oil interval).

hi sirs
i need your inputs with regard to this: Last sunday while i was driving my corolla (10th gen, 1.6g) here in iloilo, when i stepped on the brakes, i heard a rattling sound - i dunno how to describe exactly the sound, but i felt vibrations and rattling underneath and then the "abs and brake" indicator on the instrument panel lit up, I presumed the "anti - lock braking system (abs)" got engaged which i found to be abnormal as i was driving on a "stop and go" traffic.
I went to the casa here, hooked the car to their computer, road tested it and found nothing, they just told me that they have already "deleted" perhaps the error readings on the car's computer and i will have to observe it it will recur, they told me that perhaps the sensor was "nadumihan" of some sort..
What is your take on this guys? is it normal? does it happen? maybe a glitch? thanks in advance..
