  1. Long story how but i ended up over tightening one of the bolts that holds the strut bar on, on my n/a. I over tightened it without the strut bar on so at least thats not stuck on. Now ive been going mad tryin to get the fucker off. The bolt will spin in both direction it just wont move up or down. Have tried sawing it off, hammering it off, drilling it off but it still refuses to move.

    Its slowly driving me mad so was just wondering if anyone had any suggestions please?

  2. The part number is as follows: PZ417-P0510-00

    Now the plug i am on about i think will be on ever n/a incase people wanted front fogs. Its straight infront of the radiator. If you look you will see a black cable that has a plug on the end. Hope its for the fogs. If anyone knows please let me know. Im sure it must go back into the car and then i can just put a switch on the end. Im kinda hoping the fogs come with a switch aswell.

  3. Well I bought the fogs but wont get them till the begining of march as there a bday present.

    Anyway ive just had a look under the bonnet and noticed there is a plug thats not connected to anything, its right infront of the radiator. Now im thinking that this must be for the front fogs cant think of anything else it could be. Anyone know what it is for sure? Im hoping its going to be a case of pluging the fogs into this plug then tracing it back to find where the switch must go? If anyone know where the switch is in the loom please let me know.

    Im hoping they will come with instructions with them being proper toyota parts. Oh and if anyone wants the part number for them I have that too although im not sure how easy it is for toyota to get them.

  4. Anyone seen these before or had any experience with them or even got a proper picture of them on a car? Never even knew they were available but my local toyota dealer has got some on there wanting £116 for them (fair price?). Do you think id be able to fit them myself if i got them?

    Found a crap pic of what they look like so you know what i mean.

  5. @Joz yeah i was thinking earlier the reason it wont attatch is because its too short so it cant be drilled to fit. Im going to stick it back on anyway see if it help, then ill know i dont have any other problems.

    Got the part number for the Corolla bracket as promised. Also has the part number for the manifold if anyone wanted a new shiney one. No idea on the prices yet, will hopefully find out tomorrow.

  6. I got the Corola Manifold fitted a few weeks back now and I noticed the car would vibrate a certain times. First I thought it was the bracket that went from the engine block to the manifold, it doesnt quite fit onto the new manifold so I thought it must be that vibrating against the manifold. After checking a few pics of peoples manifold on here I noticed they had removed the bracket so I took it off. Now the vibration is all the time.

    Its not a constant vibration ill try and explain when it occurs. Say im driving in 2nd gear when i push the clutch down the vibration occurs soon as i let the clutch back up it stops. This happens between ever gear change. Its a really deep vibration as if something is rattling almost against the bonnet. The other time it happens is when im in 5th gear and just rolling down a hill and not touching the accelerator. Its as if it only happens when the engine is slowing down BUT only when the car is moving. When the car is stationary there are no vibrations at all no matter what I do.

    Have looked about under the bonnet and cant see anything is loose. Does anyone else with Corolla manifold suffer from this or anyone have any idea what this could be?

    Just remebered it dont seem to happen when im giving it some, but not sure if thats just because i cant hear it over the actual engine though.

    Thanks Again
