#3278 of 3293 Matrix tire question by laserblue Aug 15, 2009 (5:25 pm)
Why don't all the Matrix come with the same size of tires?   What are the advantages of getting the 17 inches tires option rather than the 16 inches?
#3279 of 3293 Re: Corolla LE vs Matrix [gregoriusm] by renatrafusca Aug 16, 2009 (1:23 pm)
Replying to: gregoriusm (May 19, 2003 1:39 pm) We bought a Vibe rather than a Corolla because: Same mileage, more hauling ability. Awesome looks. My husband liked the Vibe's looks more than the Matrix. I kind of preferred the Matrix and wanted stability control but he won. We love our car but after owning BMWs we are kinda spoiled and wish it were a bit quieter (road noise - it IS quieter than all the rest in its class!) and that our year had offered telescoping sterring wheel, now standard.
#3280 of 3293 No bluetooth option on base model? by texasnightowl Sep 05, 2009 (10:24 pm)
I'm shopping for a new car and the Matrix has ended up near the top of my list so far. I test drove last week and liked it pretty well. However, so far as I can tell, you cannot get Bluetooth on a Base Model? Is this right? It looks like you can only get BT thru the upgraded audio option on an S or XRS? If I go for the base model, what would be the simplest 3rd party option to add BT hands free phone support? Is BT any easier to get on the Vibe?
#3281 of 3293 Toyota options by laserblue Oct 07, 2009 (4:16 pm)
I was looking at what options I could take before ordering my 2010 Matrix and noticed that the "remote starter" was very expensive as an option... 820.00$ manufacture installed. It's really ridiculous.   Can I buy a Matrix without that option and buy a remote starter and install it in a remote starter dealer? or it will cost almost the same? or have problems with it or with the car? or the remote install by someone else will damage something and then Toyota will say that their not responsible for the damage caused by the remote starter and tell me that the warranty does not cover the damage and bla..bla..bla...?   What would you do?
#3282 of 3293 1.8 or 2.4 engine ? by laserblue Oct 08, 2009 (4:53 pm)
Is there a really difference between the 1.8 and 2.4 engines?   I do mostly city driving with short distance on the freeway and take 1 road trip (vacation) each year in summer, usually from Upper State N.Y. to Florida but next year we plan to go to Washington State so got to cross the Rockies.   Will the 1.8 L be powerful enough to cross those mountains or I should go for the 2.4 L?
#3283 of 3293 Question by laserblue Oct 11, 2009 (4:34 am)
If you buy a Matrix, which engine would you go for? and why?   The 1.8 L or the 2.4 L?

Replying to: q_ball (Aug 03, 2009 3:59 pm) You may try disconnecting the battery and reconnecting it. This resets it and hopefully the problem will disappear.
#3285 of 3293 Tires by laserblue Oct 22, 2009 (4:16 pm)
My friend just bought a 2010 Matrix and she says that she'll need winter tires pretty soon. Her original 4 seasons are 205/55/16 does she have to stay with the same size on winter tires or can she buy other sizes. If yes, what sizes can she buy?
#3286 of 3293 2003 Toyota Matrix Odometer by q_ball Oct 28, 2009 (3:39 pm)
I have a 2003 Toyota Matrix whose odometer is stuck at 299,999. You must pay to change the odometer and Toyota refuses to change this even though the vehicle is not near the end of its lifetime. Replies to this message: herzogtum71 (Nov 22, 2009 1:51 pm)
#3287 of 3293 Lower grill block by circuitsmith Oct 30, 2009 (5:04 pm)
Since the engine doesn't need as much cooling in the winter I blocked the lower grill:       I made it with a 4x30" piece of black foam core and a couple of cable ties.   I hope I save a little gas by warming up the engine faster.
