Replying to: matrixgirl09 (Sep 12, 2008 5:43 am) The mirror came with a small wire. Electrical parts are easy to demage, so I prefered Toyota mechanic to install it. It does not have a compass on it....like previous generation Matrix/Corolla; however, it still helps me while driving at night.

The Passenger Air Bag Indicator light has not been lighting up unless someone is sitting in the seat or if I put something with the weight of a small child in that seat. I'm worried that since the light is not showing that the air bag is off when no one, or something too light to register is in the seat, that it may go off. I've had the car since Feb and the light has always been on showing OFF, unless someone was in the seat then it would switch to ON. This just stopped working a few days ago. Is this something I should have the dealer look at or is it no big deal? Is anyone else having this issue? |

You mean if someone sits in the passenger seat it will not turn on? I think its programmed to not light up unless someone sits in the passenger seat. But if its not working, definitely have the dealer look at it. It's a safety issue they have to fix it. So far I have not had the problem, but I usually don't have passengers in it, but I check it once in a while. |

Has anyone who noticed a road noise in this 09 Matrix, I got a touring edition, seems noisier than 08 Matrix. Also on wet road, it's well pronounced on both front doors. I wonder if there is a TSB issue for sound insulation.

I have the 09 Matrix S AWD. I purchased every option except GPS because I was given an after-market Garmin Nuvi 720 as a gift. I noticed that when I hook up the GPS I cannot find a radio station that will allow th GPS to speak the directions. At first I thought I was doing something wrong; but I e-mailed Toyota and they told me that the 09 Matrix will NOT accomodate after-market GPS systems that talk. Am I pissed? Absolutely! Any recommendations? Can anyone advise if there is a way to have the doors automatically lock once you have exited the vehicle without pressing the lock button? I was reading several of the discussions and I noticed that someone recommended that at the next oil & filter change try 0w20 for better gas mileage - anyone else agree? One last comment - I noticed that if I put the rear windows down and I am driving there is this godforesaken noise - any thoughts? |

Replying to: diva2008 (Sep 27, 2008 4:39 pm) Question #2.... I cannot help. " " #3....Usuallt the thinner oil gives slightly better mileage...but...I suggest you use the right weight oil that the "manual' recommends!!!! #4....that is a common occurence forom "wind turbulence" and will occur in "ALL' vehicles. The incoming wing has no palce to exit and buffets itself against the incoming wind. It occurs in ALL vehicles.
