Q: I have a 2003 toyota corolla and need to reprogram the keyless entry?
The battery went out on my old keyless entry so I ordered a new one offline (dont ask why i didnt just replace the battery), but i took out the chip in the bad clicker and put it in the new one, but it still isnt programmed to my car. Does anyone know how to program one, or where to find how to? It is not in my owners manual. It is a 2003 Totota Corolla.
A: i have a autodata program that may have it on so send me the exact model details e.g engine size and exact model while i boot my other pc up and see if the info u need is on the autodata program
Q: What kind of coolant or brand of coolant can i use in a 2003 toyota corolla 1.6VVTI engine.....?
Also can anyone tell me where i can download the toyota corolla manual
A: We have owned brand new Toyotas for 20 years and the longest we had was a 1993 Camry LE that had 211,000 milles and was in good condition when my wife & her sisters insisted on SUVs and she got a Highlander 6 cylinder AWD. With regard to antifreeze since I began driving my Dad had always used Prestone and I continued to use it until a few year ago I was having our Sienna XLE serviced at 90,000 miles for timing belt etc and also replacing the water pump when my mechanic of like 10+ years insisted I only used TOYOTA "FACTORY RED FLUID" COOLANT sold in your local Toyota dealers Parts Dealer. Look for their Toyota coupon specials to get the best price.
FYI EBAY Motors sells original Toyota owner manuals but sorry I don't know or doubt if there is anywhere a consumer can download authentic manuals.
Hope the Above Info Helps!
Q: How much would it be to put dual exhaust on a toyota corolla 2003?
I have a toyota corolla 2003 type s. I would like to add a dual exhaust pipe on my car. Im not a pro and new to this and i want to get an estimate on how much this would be. I want something like this but chrome http://www.flickr.com/photos/33964527@N07/3164160606/
A: Don't waste your money putting dual mufflers on a car that only puts out 120 HP. it will not drastically increase anything and it will look dumb.
Q: What is this crunching sound coming from my 2003 Toyota Corolla?
When stepping onto the floor on the passenger side my wife noticed a cracking / crunching sound. I can kind of reproduce it if I step hard in the middle section of where the floor mat would be. I am not sure what is under there, and I couldn't find anything in the Chilton manual. I very recently had my tires replaced, transmission flush, and oil change, but I don't think that would have anything to do with it.
A: Cars have a thick asphalt like tar paper melted to the floor.
It reduces vibration, rust, noise, and heat loss.
It comes loose, and you were breaking it up.
Q: Does the 2003 Toyota Corolla LE have RCA ports in the back of the stereo?
It would be really great if anyone knew before I started ripping apart my car. I want to set up an aux input to plug my iPod into.
A: Most likely no... most stock and after market decks don't have RCA input and outputs like you see in your home audio system or on your TV. they do have 2 RCA inputs on the back of aftermarket decks I know that. This is mostly used for amp setups and other fun gadgets. Why don't you just buy a iPod transmitter you plug into your cigarette lighter? If you were to go through ALL that trouble just to hook up a RCA cable you might as well spend 200 dollars and get a professionally installed Alpine deck that will have a iPod cord with it and it will look much nicer too.
Here is a example of a Alpine deck that will allow to use your ipod. Nice thing about this is you can control your iPod from the head unit.

Q: How to change a 2003 toyota corolla headlight bulb? How much is it?
It's the headlight bulb on the driver side (right side). Thanks.
A: the cost for changing it is the price for the bulb.
to change it: if you still have that intake pipe that curves up by the battery, try going in from the right corner of the battery closes to you. if not then reach in from the left corner of battery closes to you. if you can't fit your hand in there then you have to remove the battery. removing it would make it easier to get to. it also resets your radio and clock in the car. use size 10mm socket(deep socket prefer) or wrench to remove battery clamp. there is two(2) teeth like clip on the harness that needs to be pull back a little to unplug the harness. once u get the harness off then simply turn the bulb one way to loosen it. the bulb can be remove first also. I prefer unplugging the harness first. do these steps in reverse to put in the new bulb and battery back in.
Q: Why do the lights turn on sometimes at night on my 2003 Toyota Corolla?
It does this when parked, turned off and no key in it. I got up this morning and the headlights were on.
A: Your 2003 Corolla had auto-on headlights. If you leave the switch to the off position, they will turn on automatically when it gets dark and they will turn off when you turn the car off. However, if you turn them on manually with the switch (on the turn signal stalk, by twisting 2 positions), the auto-off does not work so they will stay on after you turn the car off. I would recomend that you just let the auto-on function do its thing automatically for you and you won't have to worry about leaving your headlights on anymore.
Hope this helps.

Q: Any way to improve performance on a 2003 toyota corolla automatic?
this car was given to me, i was going to buy a civic stick, but i couldnt refuse accepting a free car. so anyone know any way i can improve the performance on this car. no ricing at all... im thinking intake, quiet exhaust system, headers, sport tires?
A: You pretty much got all the basics down. After that you could go with some ECU tuning and a new suspension setup. If you get into more serious modding you could look into driveline and brake upgrades.
Q: Can I fix the clock in my 2003 Toyota Corolla?
A couple months ago it just went out. Sometimes it comes back on, sometimes it doesn't. It usually keeps track of the time when it is back on. I've gotten a new battery since it went out, but that didn't seem to help. Is this something that's easy to fix? I don't know much about these kind of things. And if I can fix it, do I need to get a whole new clock and take it out of the console?
A: It's a common problem in the newer Toyotas for the dash clock to fail. Best bet is to just get one from a junkyard or search www.car-part.com for one if you have no local junkyards.
Q: Anyone else having problems with their 2003 Toyota Corolla?
I bought mine from a private owner about 5 or 6 months ago and it worked just fine at first. It has been raining almost everyday where I live (Florida) and it is taking a toll on my car. It has started making this noise whenever I turn the car on (as a result of the rain). Also, whenever I make a sharp left turn, it makes a clicking noise. Can someone tell me whats wrong and about how much I would have to pay to fix this? Thanks.
A: Sounds like the CV-Joint Boots (That hold the grease & keep out the dirt) are cracked or torn. now with the noise that means they (CV-Joints) are bad, when they do the CV-Joints they'll also check the short shafts (Front Axles) to make sure they are still good.
