2014 Toyota Corolla Altis Grande

Thank you.

Yes, you are right this trunk alignment issue has plagued the last two Generations of Corolla. When i was getting my Car from the showroom, the manager himself admitted this thing. Plus all 2014 Corollas that were present that day, had this problem. Anyhow, what i have noticed is that the my right light was not properly aligned. At first, when i used to open/close my trunk the process was not smooth. But with the passage of time/repeated use it has become a lot better, so is the alignment. Still, there is a difference but its almost negligible now. When i went for my for my First Check-up, the mechanic suggested to use the notorious "hammer" technique to align the trunk lever. But i refused.

Experts would not use hammer but a hydraulic shaft till the point that the trunk lid falls in place itself and locked

Very true. Do you know any particular place where i can get this fixed ?

Find any reputable denter nearby who has hydraulic jack because he will know where pressure is required. Long time a City hit me from behind and broke the bumper clip, I went for fixing it in Melody and the mech said that rear lights were not aligned as the impact pressed the rear a bit. He brought a hydraulic jack and without any hammer aligned the lights and trunk lid very smoothly and quickly.

Manual Transmission, if you want to get the most out of your every driving session. While driving a manual transmission, the feeling that you get when you perfectly execute a gear shift is priceless and this brings a smile on your face every time. Moreover, Its cheaper to repair and provides better fuel efficiency.

Auto Transmission, if you just want to drive your car from point A to B in a hassle-free manner (if your daily run has a lot of traffic signals). Though this particular model has Paddle Shifters, but then again you will be using them seldomly.

How is the drive and acceleration of the car? And this car has 6 speakers right? Is the quality of the speakers good?

1. Acceleration is superb and as far as the drive pleasure is concerned, this 11 Generation Corolla is definitely in Honda's territory now. At times i have to see my instrument panel to check the RPM for up/down shifting a gear, as there is negligible engine sound inside the cabin.

2. Yes, Altis comes with a 6-speaker sound system. Technically, 4-speakers and 2-tweeters. Sound is really good. I don't feel like changing these speakers any time soon.

Ok thnx bro. Do you know anything about the cvt-i transmission it's better than the prosmatec system right? And has fast shifts.

Actually, my first cousin got a CVTi Grande the same time i got my Manual one. I have driven his car once, the CVTi transmission is way more better and smoother than your regular Prosmatec Transmission. Yar, from what i have experienced, that car stays in the Eco Zone even if you floor it hard due to the 7 gears, meaning it will be economical as well. Moreover, the up/down gear shifting is seamless !!

That's what I wanted to know. Thnx man.

@hasan.danish, i was wondering if you have thought about installing the cruise control in ur car? Any idea what one would require to make it work in manual grande? I dont think it will be much of a problem to install it in manual transmission as everything is same except the transmission.

Nae yar, i don't go for long trips very often. May be once in a year or so. Plus my daily run is around 20Kms involving busy roads. So this is the reason i never felt the absence of this feature. I am sorry, i have no clue about it but i saw there is a provision for it on the steering wheel.
