#3281 of 3291 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 3291 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 3291 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 3291 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 3291 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 3291 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.
#3288 of 3291 ???? by laserblue Nov 03, 2009 (10:18 am)
What you'll you buy If you had to start all over again?   2010 Toyota Matrix or 2010 Chevrolet HHR? and Why?
#3289 of 3291 2005 Matrix Clutch/Transmissions OK? by andyinsb Nov 18, 2009 (9:32 pm)
I'm in the market for a used Matrix. A 2005 XRS (6-speed manual) has come up for sale in my area. Searching the forums here, it sounds like there were a lot of problems with the transmission and clutch on 2003 and 2004 manual-transmission Matrixes. Does anyone know if these problems also occur in the 2005 XRS?   Thanks! Andy

Replying to: q_ball (Oct 28, 2009 3:39 pm) Did Toyota tell you that 299,999 intentionally set at the factory as a maximum reading? It makes no sense, especially considering the Corolla commericals that brag about how many miles the vehicles have gone.
