Toyota Corolla 1.6

Year of issue: 2012

Engine: 1.6 (124 hp) checkpoint: A4

I’ll say right away that I travel quite a lot, and not far ideal roads. I bought the car new and covered 110,000 km in less than four years. The decisive argument in favor of the purchase was the reputation of the Toyota Corolla as a reliable car and its reasonable cost. Although I had doubts when purchasing. Even in top-end configuration the equipment is modest: climate control, heated seats and mirrors, a simple audio system, power accessories and that’s it. Now there are budget cars, the same Lada Vesta or Hyundai Solaris V mid-spec better equipped, and in rubles they cost about the same as a Toyota Corolla in 2012, although the national currency has since halved in price. Therefore, I do not agree with those who believe that buying a Japanese car is not a bad investment.

At first I was happy with the car, because I switched to it from the domestic VAZ-2114. The equipment seemed rich and the interior luxurious. Ride quality is also very good. I still consider the Toyota Corolla to be one of the best cars in its class in terms of ergonomics, handling and suspension. The engine is optimal, not too thirsty, consumes about 11 liters per 100 km in the city, 8 liters on the highway and at the same time provides good dynamics. Automatic transmission, although a simple 4-speed, it works quite adequately and, apart from frequent oil changes, does not cause any problems.

But in terms of reliability, hopes were not justified. During its operation, the Toyota Corolla had more problems than the VAZ-2114 during the same period. There really is a difference domestic car minor breakdowns began immediately after purchase, but then, when the factory defects were eliminated, in the interval from 30,000 to 90,000 km, it did not require anything other than an oil change, and only then it began to slowly crumble. With Toyota, it’s the other way around: up to 40,000 km, nothing had to be done at all except scheduled maintenance, which, by the way, is expensive and must be done every 10,000 km.

Then, when the warranty expired, the car began to break down all the time, albeit in small ways. I had to go through the suspension and change it twice brake discs, pump, generator, thermostat. It's thundering steering rack. Although I try to take care of the car, change the oil in the engine and gearbox on time, but now it looks far from perfect. There are a lot of paint chips and scratches on the body, the upholstery has worn out, and “crickets” have appeared in the front panel. At the same time, diagnostics of the engine and gearbox showed that they are in excellent condition, and a car without special problems It will take at least the same amount of time. I just don’t want to drive a Toyota Corolla anymore.

I concluded for myself that reliability and durability are different terms. A thing can last indefinitely, but require constant attention, like a Toyota Corolla. And vice versa, it can work flawlessly for some time and suddenly break down, like a Chinese mobile phone. Based on this, my next car will be a Korean one, I would even take a Lada Vesta if it had a normal automatic transmission.

It’s good that even for a 4-year-old Toyota Corolla secondary market They offer good money, and the reputation of a reliable car, inherited from previous generations of this model, is still alive.

Advantages of Toyota Corolla 1.6:

Moderate cost

High quality build

Good ergonomics

Reliable handling

Successful combination of engine and transmission

Good liquidity on the secondary market

Disadvantages of Toyota Corolla 1.6:

Outdated design

Poor equipment

Dear official service

Poor quality paint coating and interior materials

The car is durable, but unreliable, there are a lot of small breakdowns

31.07.2018

Corolla is one of the Japanese models automobile giant, known throughout the world. Along with the VW Golf, it is loved for its reliability, unpretentiousness and comfort, available for a very humane price tag. The Toyota Corolla engine can have a volume from 1.3 to 1.8 liters, while for purchase at this moment There will be three options available. Each of the units has unique characteristics, be it acceleration dynamics, fuel consumption, reliability or maintenance costs. We will also consider another common 1.4-liter engine, which was installed on cars in 150 and 120 bodies and is no longer produced.

Toyota Corolla E150

1.3 1NR-FE (Corolla E180)

It is not surprising that such a unit is installed in the most mass car Japanese brand. The 1NR-FE engine itself can be considered the most popular internal combustion engine of the entire NR series. Majority modern technologies, like systems Dual VVT-i, Stop - Start and return to the old standard of intake and exhaust manifolds are present here. The engine displacement is 1329 cubic centimeters, resulting in an output of 95-102 horsepower.

The performance characteristics are as follows: fuel consumption in mixed cycle can reach 6 liters, and the gasoline must be AI-95. For a row European countries, the motor is upgraded to match Euro standard 5, due to which the power is reduced to 98 forces, and octane number the required fuel increases to 98. In Europe, this option is called Premium. Majority Russian cars comply with the Euro 4 standard, thanks to which the power slightly exceeds 100 forces. Its dynamics are appropriate: the Corolla E180 with such a power unit will accelerate to 100 km/h in 12.6 seconds.

1.33 liter engine, the most economical unit in the Corolla line

Since the engine is quite popular, there is information on the Internet about problems that often arise with this unit. First of all, this increased consumption oil and difficult cold starts. For countries with harsh climates, Toyota has provided a coolant heating system exhaust gases. The system turns off as soon as the temperature of the 1.3-liter unit reaches operating values.

Among the predicted breakdowns, it is also worth noting the knocking of VVT-i drives during a cold start, carbon deposits during intake manifold, appearing due to EGR operation, and water pump leaks. Usually, major problems They begin to appear only towards the end of the second hundred thousand mileage. If you properly care for the engine and change all fluids in a timely manner, then it will easily cover 300-400 thousand kilometers without major repairs, which, by the way, is impossible due to the thin walls of the cylinders. The engine can be easily found contract replacement, since it was installed on many car models for the Japanese market.

Which Toyotas were equipped with 1NR-FE:

• Auris;
• Axio;
• Passo;
• Porte;
• Probox;
• Ractis;
• Vitz;
• Yaris.

1.6 1ZR-FE (E180)

The ZR series includes several engines, one of which is 1ZR-FE. Like the 1NR-FE, the 1ZR-FE is equipped with a Dual VVT-i gas distribution system and a Stop-Start system, as these options are standard on most Toyota internal combustion engines. The working volume of the presented model is 1598 cubic centimeters, and output varies from 122 horsepower to 132. Power also depends on environmental standard, like the analogue described above.

When operating the 1ZR-FE under the hood of a Corolla, only AI-95 gasoline must be poured into the tank. Its consumption in the combined cycle is usually 7.2 liters with a moderate driving style. The main power is achieved at high speed, about four to six thousand, thanks to which overtaking on the highway can be done without fear. Acceleration of a body with such an internal combustion engine to 100 km/h can hardly be called racing: 10.5 seconds. This figure is enough for comfortable city driving; a small car has nothing to do on the track.

All the problems of the unit have long been known, since it was previously installed in Corolla E150 and E170 bodies. The most common complaint is oil consumption. Location oil filter this is not the most convenient, which makes it more difficult to control his condition. After several thousand kilometers, the filter begins to let oil through, since its pressure in the system is high. This problem can be solved by simply replacing the filter along with the engine oil.

1ZR-FE is the most common power unit on modern models Corolla

Another problem is the timing belt stretching, which happens closer to 100-150 thousand kilometers. In addition, engine noise becomes more noticeable with increasing mileage. This can be treated with simple maintenance. The last problem, which the Toyota Corolla 1.6 engine throws at drivers - floating speed. This happens due to too much carbon deposits on the intake and throttle body. As with the 1NR-FE, the problem is a consequence of the EGR system. With proper care, this power point lives up to 400,000 km.

This power unit is not widely used among Japanese cars. However, several models with a similar engine were actively sold on different markets, which means that spare parts from:

• Auris;
• Corolla of previous generations;
• Altis for South Asian markets.

1.8 2ZR-FE (E180)

This particular power unit is now the largest of all that are installed in the modern generation of Toyota Corolla. It was introduced in 2007, also equipped with Dual VVT-i, like the two previous engines, however, it has a larger displacement: 1797 cubic centimeters. It replaced the outdated 1ZZ-FE, which many disliked due to a number of problems, the most significant of which was the MPFI multi-point fuel injection system.

The torque output of the Corolla 1.8 engine is the most optimal for a city car that occasionally travels outside its home village. 140 horsepower is quite enough for comfortable overtaking and acceleration from 0-100 in just over 10 seconds. Fuel consumption, however, is not much higher than that of younger brother: up to 9 liters in mixed cycle. In “greenhouse conditions”, when the street is calm, the road is perfectly flat and the limit is 90 km/h, the consumption will be 6 liters of 95 or, for some markets, 92 of gasoline.

Among the problems, you cannot find anything different from the 1ZR, because they are the same, with the exception of the cylinder displacement and some parts that depend on it. The service life is also on par with the 1ZR-FE: this engine can travel more than 400,000 kilometers if you properly care for it and change the oil in a timely manner. Major renovation, as in the case of its younger brother, is not expected due to the thin walls of the cylinders.

The 1.8-liter unit can very often be found on cars of a higher class. Which means the search contract spare parts it will be easy for him. The 2ZR-FE engine was installed in Toyotas:

• Allion;
• Premium;
• Fielder;
• Altis;
• Axio;
• Auris;
• Yaris;
• Matrix;

This unit was also installed on such well-known (mostly not in Russia) cars as Pontiac Vibe and Scion xD.

Surely, each of us has seen such a car as the Toyota Corolla. This model has been produced since the 90s. However, it gained the greatest popularity with the release of the new, tenth generation, which was produced until 2013.

The car has become iconic and recognizable on the roads. Why did she receive such recognition? For information about the Toyota Corolla (2008) reviews, technical specifications and prices, see our article today.

Design

The tenth generation of the car in the 150 body looks much more impressive than the previous one, according to reviews from owners. However, the car is also devoid of any aggressiveness. This is a modest city car. The body is dominated by smooth lines. Thanks to new bumpers and optics, the car looks more presentable. The hood, like on the Camry, is very short, as noted by owner reviews. However, it is not often necessary to carry out work there. The machine is quite reliable and, apart from replacing consumables, does not require maintenance.

As for the dimensions, the 2008 Toyota Corolla belongs to the C-class of cars. Thus, the length of the body is 4.55 m, width - 1.76 m, height - 1.47 m.

What is the ground clearance of the Toyota Corolla (2008)? Owner reviews say that ground clearance 15 centimeters is enough for the car. It easily overcomes uneven surfaces due to its short overhangs and wheelbase. By the way, the length of the latter is 2.6 meters.

The rear of the Toyota Corolla (2008) is made in a classic Japanese style. There are no expressive shapes or outlines here. The design of the car is as modest as possible, but not poor. There is a wide chrome trim in the center of the trunk lid. On top of it is the company logo. The headlights are two-piece. The optics burn quite brightly.

Salon

Let's move inside the Toyota Corolla. Interior the cars are an extension of her design. Everything here is also very modest, yet neat. You don't feel like an owner inside budget car. The tenth generation Corolla is a kind of layer between budget and business class. The front panel architecture is built smoothly and without frills. Minimum chrome parts in the interior.

In the center there is a modest radio tape recorder, a climate control unit and a niche for small items. All this is neatly decorated with a silver aluminum-look insert. Steering wheel- three-spoke, complemented by buttons remote control. On the sides there are two steering wheel paddle shifters.

The instrument panel is made in color. On the left side of the driver there is a power window control unit, and on the right there is a comfortable armrest. Under its lid there is a small compartment for storing small items.

The seats have weak lateral support. At the same time, the manufacturer did not deprive them of adjustments. Reviews from the owners say that the chair can be quickly adjusted “to suit you.” There is enough space in the back for three people. Their heads don't hit the ceiling. By the way, there is no central tunnel inside, which eats up so much free space.

Does the car have a second armrest? It is also available here. Additionally, it is equipped with two cup holders.

What is very important for the C-class is the size luggage compartment. The Toyota Corolla car has a volume of 450 liters. It also has a folding function rear seats. This allows you to transport things non-standard sizes. There is not enough space under the trunk floor. It is barely enough for the factory “dokatka”. However, the interior is made of very high quality and takes into account ergonomics.

Technical characteristics: Toyota Corolla (2008)

Let's take a look under the hood of this one Japanese car. What engine does the Toyota Corolla (2008) have?

There are two in total in the line power units. Both are atmospheric, with 16 valves. The units meet the Euro-4 environmental standard and are equipped with consistent distributed injection. Let's look at each engine separately.

"Corolla" 1.3

This motor is quite rare in Russian spaces. The gasoline unit with its volume of 1.3 liters it produces 101 horsepower power. The maximum torque of a car with this engine is 132 Nm. Full power opens from 3.8 thousand revolutions.

Of course, for a car of this class this motor produces weak technical characteristics. Toyota Corolla (2008) with a 1.3 engine accelerates to one hundred kilometers per hour in an “eternal” 13 and a half seconds. The maximum speed is 180 kilometers per hour.

However, the car has very moderate fuel consumption. For a hundred kilometers in mixed mode, it consumes 5.8 liters of 95. However, the car does not like overload. At fully loaded consumption may increase by 20 percent. This characteristic all low-power engines.

What gearbox is available for the 1.3-liter Toyota Corolla (2008)? A 6-speed manual is the only transmission equipped with this unit.

"Corolla" 1.6

This is the most popular version of the Corolla in Russia. It is equipped with a four-speed gearbox. As for the engine itself, its power is 124 horsepower.

The unit has more decent technical characteristics. Toyota Corolla (2008) with a 1.6 engine accelerates to hundreds in 11 and a half seconds (despite the fact that the curb weight of the car is 1300 kilograms).

The engine torque is 157 Nm. It is available at 5.2 thousand rpm. Fuel consumption is not much different from the previous unit - up to 7 liters per 100 kilometers.

We also note that version 1.6 was released on mechanics. In this case, the car reached a hundred a second earlier. The maximum speed on the automatic is 183 kilometers per hour. On mechanics - up to 192.

Conclusion

So, we found out what technical characteristics the Toyota Corolla (2008) has. Today this car can be bought for 400-600 thousand rubles.

Why do owners love her? First of all, for reliability. If you need a car for every day that does not require constant repairs, you should definitely pay attention to this Toyota.

There are many copies left in decent condition on the secondary market. The car body is painted with high quality and does not rust. Automatic transmission has a resource of 300 or more thousand kilometers, provided regular replacement transmission oil(once every 60 thousand kilometers). This Japanese car worthy of attention.

All engines offered for the 2008 Toyota Corolla have 4 cylinders, located in engine compartment transversely

Technical characteristics of the 2015 Corolla

In Russia it is available with three petrol engine options:

1. 99-horsepower, 1.3-liter volume; this power plant allows you to reach a speed of 180 km/h, and the car accelerates to 100 km/h in 12.6 seconds; in mixed driving mode, the car consumes 5.6 liters of fuel per 100 kilometers.
2. The unit has a volume of 1.6 liters and a power of 122 hp. With.; allows you to reach a speed of 195 km/h, and accelerates to the first hundred in 10.5 seconds; consumption in mixed driving mode is within 6.3 liters.
3. Top-end power plant, 1.8-liter capacity, 140 horsepower; maximum speed a car equipped with this engine is 195 km/h, with an average consumption of 6.4 liters of gasoline.

The 2015 Toyota Corolla has 2 types of transmission: manual transmission gear shift and continuously variable CVT. The variator is supplemented with two additional sports modes works - Sport and seven-band Shiftmatik.

Transmission

The Toyota Corolla E150 was equipped with three gearboxes - a six-speed manual, four-speed automatic and a CVT.

A 6-speed manual transmission, which has a traditional design for such mechanisms, is available for 1NR-FE, 4ZZ-FE, 1NZ-FE, 1ZR-FE, 2ZR-FE, D4D.

The automatic machine is also of a traditional design, that is, torque converter. Has 4 stages. This gearbox is available for the 1ZR-FE engine.

The CVT is the least common, so its technical characteristics are described in more detail. Toyota calls it CVT. In this generation, such a gearbox is available only for the 1NZ-FE engine. She represents stepless gearbox gears V-belt type. This mechanism comprises chain transmission, including two pulleys connected by a steel V-belt. Each of them is formed by two conical disks, which have the ability to move relative to each other, thus changing the diameter of the pulley. The tapered discs are positioned at an angle of 20°, as this provides the least resistance when moving along the surface of the belt pulley.

CVT, thanks to the named technical features, during operation it is attractive because it carries out a smooth change gear ratios, which promotes comfortable movement.

Suspension

Specifications and the design of the E150 suspension are standard for cars in the segment to which the described car belongs.

At the front, the Toyota Corolla has an independent MacPherson-type design, that is, a multi-link independent spring, and rear suspension represented by a torsion beam.

The front wheel track is 1525 mm, and the rear wheel track is 1520 mm.

Ground clearance is 150 mm.

The technical characteristics of the suspension, namely the settings of the springs and shock absorbers, combined with a fairly high ground clearance, ensure comfortable movement on uneven surfaces.

Controllability is provided by a rack-and-pinion steering mechanism, equipped to facilitate control with an electric or hydraulic booster, depending on the configuration. The turning circle is 10.4 m.

Tires and wheels

Modifications of the 2008 Toyota Corolla with the least powerful engines V initial configurations equipped with 15-inch steel wheels with tires size 195/65 R15. Modifications with the most outstanding technical equipment equipped with steel alloy wheels, 16” diameter with 205/55R16 tires.

Brakes

Ventilated disc mechanisms are installed on the front axle of the cars in question, and non-ventilated disc mechanisms are installed on the rear axle.

Body

Toyota Corolla is presented in a sedan body, the technical characteristics of which are given below.

The dimensions have been slightly increased compared to the previous generation of the model, which is traditional for most cars. The length is 4540 mm, width - 1760 mm, height - 1470 mm. Wheelbase equal to 2600 mm.

Moreover, in comparison with previous generation, the rigidity of the body was increased and at the same time its weight increased. The weight of the car in running order is about 1300 kg, depending on the modification and equipment. Rigidity, as is known, determines ride quality and vehicle safety. Therefore, by improving this technical characteristic, the designers were able to significantly increase safety. achieved through more wide application high-strength steels. This can be judged by the maximum rating received by the Toyota Corolla E150 based on the results of Euro NCAP crash tests, which was achieved, among other things, thanks to the body’s ability to significantly mitigate both frontal, side and rear impacts. It should be noted that this is the first generation of the car in question to receive such a high safety rating.

Fuel consumption

Consumption with the smallest engine per 100 km is 4.9 l, 7.3 l and 5.8 l in suburban, urban and mixed modes, for 4ZZ-FE - 5.7 l, 8.6 l, 6.7 l , respectively, for 1ZR-FE – 5.8 l, 8.9 l, 6.9 l, for 2ZR-FE – 6 l, 9.3 l, 7.2 l, modification with diesel unit consumes 4.4 l, 7 l, 5.3 l of fuel in similar conditions. The given technical characteristics refer to modifications equipped with a manual transmission.

A car with a 1ZR-FE engine and automatic transmission consumes 6 liters, 9.3 liters, 7.2 liters per 100 km in suburban, urban, and mixed cycles.

As you can see and would expect, the diesel engine is the most economical. Fuel costs require the most Toyota modifications Corolla with 1.8 liter and 1.6 liter engines complete with automatic transmission.

The tank volume is 55 l. For most modifications of the car in question, equipped gasoline engines, the manufacturer recommends using AI-95 fuel, however, some of them, developed for the previous generation, can be refueled with AI-92.

Dynamics

The slowest modification of the E150 is equipped with an engine with the most modest technical characteristics, a volume of 1.33 liters. Acceleration to 100 km/h takes 13.1 seconds. It is 0.1 s ahead of the Corolla with a 1.4 liter engine. The only modification of 2008 with a CVT, implying a 1.5 liter engine, accelerates to 100 km/h in 11.9 s. Acceleration takes the same amount of time for a 1.6 liter car equipped with an automatic transmission, which indicates a higher efficiency of the variator.

However, the best, in terms of these technical characteristics, is the manual transmission, since a Corolla equipped with it with the same unit spends 1.5 seconds less on acceleration to 100 km/h, compared to an equipped one. automatic transmissions cars, with the same technical characteristics of the engines. Corolla with diesel engine The 2.0 liter exceeds the last reviewed modification by 0.1 s in acceleration.

As you can see, the E150 has a fairly wide range of engines. This car well suited for road use Low quality due to the possibility of using AI-92 engines for some engines, comfortable suspension settings, and high ground clearance.

Malfunctions and repairs of the 1ZR-FE/FAE engine

These motors were presented to the public in 2007 and were considered as a successor to the unsuccessful ZZ series. The family consisted of a 1.6 liter 1ZR, 1.8 liter. , 2.0 l. , as well as Chinese 4ZR, with a displacement of 1.6 liters. and 5ZR 1.8 l. Let's consider the youngest representative of the main model range- 1ZR, this engine was called upon to replace the motor. In the new 1ZR, to reduce the load on the liner, the cylinder axis does not intersect with the crankshaft axis, Dual VVT-i began to be used, in other words, a system for changing valve timing on the intake and exhaust shafts, at the same time, the Valvematic system appeared, changing valve lift (range 0.9 - 10.9 mm), hydraulic compensators have appeared and now you won’t have to adjust the valves on the 1ZR. By new tradition Toyota, ZR engine is disposable, in aluminum block, without repair dimensions, with all the consequences.

Toyota 1ZR engine modifications

1. 1ZR-FE - main engine, equipped with dual VVTi, compression ratio 10.2, power 124 hp. This engine was used in Toyota Corolla and Toyota Auris.
2. 1ZR-FAE - analogue of 1ZR-FE, but together with Dual-VVTi, Valvematic is used, the compression ratio is increased to 10.7, engine power is 132 hp.

Malfunctions, problems of 1ZR and their causes

1. High consumption oils The problem is typical for the first ZR models, it is solved by pouring oil with a viscosity of W30, instead of 0W-20, 5W-20. If the mileage is serious, then measure the compression.
2. Knock of the 1ZR engine. Noise at mid speed? Change the timing chain tensioner. In addition, it can also make noise (whistle). drive belt generator, change it.
3. Problems with idling. Swimming and other troubles are caused by a position sensor throttle valve and a dirty throttle valve itself.

In addition, the pump on the 1ZR likes to leak, make noise and ask to be scrapped after 50-70 thousand km; the thermostat often dies and the engine refuses to warm up to operating temperature, may jam VVTi valve with subsequent dullness of the car and loss of power. However, these problems do not occur all the time; the 1ZR engine turned out to be quite good, with a normal service life (+\- 250 thousand km) and with stable maintenance, it does not cause problems for the owner.

Toyota 1ZR-FE/FAE engine tuning

Turbine on 1ZR

Turbocharging a ZR engine is described using the 2ZR as an example and is successfully repeated on a 1ZR engine.
