I have had a flat too (ran over a nail and a screw) and the guy at the tire place (discount tire) said they weren't cheap either (105.00 to 150 per tire) . I have a while to go before I have to replace them so I guess I'll start saving now.

Hi oreng, I'm having the exact same problem with my '06 Matrix. After I jumped another car, both of the low beams are not working. I've replaced the headlights, check all the fuses and relays, which are working fine. What ended up being the problem with yours, was it grounding?
 
Thanks,

Has any one tried to install the new 09 roof rack on an older matrix I am going to measure and see if it can be done

At 19K miles, my Matrix has sprung a leak!
 
Not a bad one, but it is coming from the engine compartment and staining my driveway.
 
I guess I might get to use my warranty on this one. It goes in on Thursday. :-/

and the verdict is... by nippononly

I had a leaking radiator and a leak at the timing chain tensioner, so both were replaced. It was all under warranty, so free to me, but if it had not been, the parts alone would have been $349. I figure the total cost with labor would have been around $550, maybe $600. So I'm glad it was covered for free.
 
But I'm not glad I needed repairs at such a low mileage. These days, not just because of this but because of other little things as well, I am wondering if I will be buying any more Toyotas in the future.

Hey, Nippon. There's no excuse for leaks at 19K. I had an '88 Renault that sprang leaks at 12K, but that was a Renault and not a Toyota. Let us know how your car is holding up in another few months.

Roof Racks for Matrix by fishbear

I just bought a 2006 Matrix with no factory rack. My Corolla wagon had a factory rack and I bought a Thule rack to attach to it. I want to carry a cartop aluminum boat and maybe lumber and ladders occasionally. Anyone have any comments on racks that would work? It would not be used frequently, so I prefer something cheaper than Thule or Yakima. Maybe a good quality removable rack?

Reliability? by bethel

I'm wondering about the reliability of the '03 Matrixses.
 
I have an automatic XS, and the computer just went out. So of course I had to have it towed to the dealer and they told me the water pump was going out and there was a leak in the oil pan....
 
Now, I don't know why the oil pan would leak, and this is the second water pump to go out...
 
So I'm wondering, is this unusual? Has anyone had any problems with their '03 similar to this?
