A few Corolla questions...

[thespud]

Haynes (And Gregory's) manuals over here tend to take a few years to be produced. They dont even have any for my '01 Nissan Pulsar. The reason Haynes gives for this is because some people could still be under their 5yr extended warranty. Once that period expires, generally the manuals come flooding out. No idea why.

So you may not even be able to find a manual for yours yet other than the factory. Good luck in finding one though. I got told by one of the big wigs over here that Toyotas are 'too reliable', which is why the manuals take so long to surface...

OK I found out - Canada (I guess not the US?) has a B Package and C Package available for the CE.

B Package:
Air Conditioning, Clean Air Filter, Keyless Entry, Power Door Locks

C Package:
Air Conditioning, Clean Air Filter, Keyless Entry, Power Door Locks,
Power Windows w/Driver Side Auto Down, Cruise Control

And it's nearly impossible to find a new Corolla without A/C - so that's why all the ones I've seen have keyless entry.

There's also a B and C package for the LE, but the features are slightly different.

Definetly get the factory repair manual. My dad won't let a mechanic touch our cars so naturally he owns the repair manual for every one of them. However he does also purchase a Haynes manual because even though it is usually inaccurate, it gives information on what common tools can be used for the job. The factory manual assumes you own the complete compliment of Toyota dealer tools.

Yup, the Canadian brochure shows the B and C packages I was talking about. The US brochure doesn't.
Is A/C standard in the US?
Automatic headlights are optional here (the photoelectric eye in the dash is blocked off).
DRLs are standard, same as power mirrors.

I went to the dealer and asked about only the keyless entry receiver and they
gave me part number 00012-10520-05, but wanted $120 for it.
Does anyone know where to get one cheaper?
