#594 of 606 Hissing noise, suggestions please! by brizeman Oct 20, 2009 (3:37 am)
My 2009 Toyota Corolla ( 4500 km) is recently making a hissing noise. Is this a common problem? What should I do to resolve this problem? Replies to this message: lonclip (Oct 21, 2009 6:56 pm) jsol20 (Oct 22, 2009 10:04 pm) terceltom (Nov 10, 2009 6:30 am)

Replying to: brizeman (Oct 20, 2009 3:37 am) I`ve noticed no hissing in my 09 Corolla so I would say this is not normal and should be checked by the dealer service department. I would guess the hiss probably comes from a vacuum leak somewhere though I can`t imagine how a car that new would have a loose or broken/split vacuum line......oh right, it`s a Toyota!!

#598 of 606 2009/2010 Recall by terceltom Nov 10, 2009 (6:26 am)
Received my recall notice yesterday for the "09"/"10" Corolla brake vacuum port freezing problem. Trying to decide if I want to take my car in for this repair. I don't live in one of the 19 colder states listed, but still eligible for the repair if I decide to. This recall affects Corollas with the 2ZR-FE (1.8 liter) engines. Any other feelings about this 2009/2010 recall?

Replying to: terceltom (Nov 10, 2009 6:26 am) Well, you don't have to do it right away, so take your time and do it when you have a chance. Of course, if you have to go to the dealer anytime for something else, just do it then. I'm not sure, but they might have to change the brake fluid as part of the repair, so you'd get a free brake fluid replacement!! Replies to this message: vcheng (Nov 10, 2009 9:49 am)

Replying to: mcdawgg (Nov 10, 2009 9:28 am) They don't have to change the brake fluid at all.   The recall involves a new part added to the intake manifold to relocate the vacuum draw line for the booster from the bottom to the top.   Apparently, water condensate was blocking the draw line and preventing the booster from working properly in the old design. In really bad cases the intake manifold itself, which is plastic, was being split by the accumulation of freezing water condensate.   The new design relocates that line port above the potential water condensate level and thus solves the potential problem.

Replying to: terceltom (Nov 10, 2009 6:26 am) Took my corolla in for my 30K service, I had them do that and also the recall. I do not live in one of the 19 states but in MA it gets cold so I wanted it done and they did all the work, 30k service, alignment and recall all in under 2 hrs. So I think the recall is a fast repair.
