About 2021 Toyota Corolla Tires
Apart from finding the right tire size, you also want to consider a handful of other factors when buying new Toyota Corolla tires like how and where you drive, and how much you want to spend. Think about where you live (countryside vs. city vs. mountains) and the kind of unexpected weather you're likely to experience when evaluating your driving conditions. Drivers in states that fully experience all four seasons often buy two sets of tires: one for summer and one for winter. Other drivers prefer to purchase one all-season set to limit trips to the tire shop and make sure their vehicle is prepared in the rain, sleet, snow, or sun!
Next, consider your driving style. If you're a big off-roading fan who forges paths where others can't, you have very different needs than a long-distance commuter who sticks to the highway. Browse Toyota Corolla tires online or come to your nearby Firestone Complete Auto Care for help selecting the tire that's right for you.

Engine Q&A 2021 Toyota Corolla
-

-
Are Toyota Corolla engine noises bad? Strange under-the-hood noises can point to problems within your Toyota Corolla engine. Tapping or knocking could mean you need an oil change.

Squealing may be caused by a loose fan belt, and grinding could be a sign that something is wrong with your brakes — not the engine.
-
What could damage my Toyota Corolla engine? Some driving habits are not so great for your engine.

Until you have it repaired or replaced, drive your Corolla as little as possible to reduce your risk of damage to the wheels and alignment – or further damage to that already struggling tire!
-
Can I use an emergency/temporary sealant to fix my Toyota's flat tire? Fast fixes are a mixed blessing. They’ll help you get your Toyota Corolla to Firestone Complete Auto Care, but don’t count on them to keep you on the road for very long. Using a temporary sealant may also void a Bridgestone or Firestone tire warranty.
-
What is causing the tires on my Corolla to keep losing air? Possible reasons for your Corolla tires continuously losing air include a leaking valve steam, wheel damage, and a puncture or hole in the rubber.

Commonly Asked Toyota Corolla Battery Questions
-
Why won’t my Toyota Corolla battery hold a charge? A battery is in its final hour when it will no longer hold a charge. The battery may be too old. Or, you may have been leaving your car doors ajar and the cabin light at night. Stop by for a complimentary battery check at your favorite Firestone Complete Auto Care and get a handle on your car battery’s health.
-
How long can I expect my car battery to last? The typical 12-volt car battery may last three to five years, depending on the type of battery, the driving conditions, and how well the battery is maintained.
-
Why is there white, flaky stuff around my Corolla’s battery post? If you notice white, crusty stuff around the battery terminals of your Corolla, it's likely corrosion. A chemical reaction between battery acid and the air can create a white, powdery substance that builds up over time on the terminals. This buildup can interfere with the electrical connection between the battery and your Corolla’s electrical system, potentially leading to poor performance, difficulty starting, and other issues.
2021 Toyota Corolla Oil Changes
Your 2021 Corolla’s oil should be changed according to Toyota’s recommended oil change intervals. Outside of Toyota-recommended oil change intervals, your Corolla may need an oil change if your check engine light is on, you hear engine knocking, smell oil inside the vehicle, or see an excess amount of vehicle exhaust. You might need an oil change more frequently than what’s recommended by Toyota if you regularly haul heavy loads, frequent dusty roads, go off-roading a lot, or go at low speeds on long distance trips.
Whether it’s synthetic, conventional, or a blend of both — your local Firestone Complete Auto Care has the right oil for your Toyota Corolla. Talk with a teammate and consult your owner's manual before picking a motor oil. At Firestone Complete Auto Care, you can choose from the following oils: Quaker State® Advanced Durability™ conventional oil, Pennzoil® High Mileage Vehicle® motor oil, Pennzoil Platinum® Full Synthetic motor oil with PurePlus™ Technology, and Shell Rotella® heavy-duty engine oil. During an oil change, a technician will change your Corolla's oil, replace and recycle your used oil and oil filter, inspect all of your other filters, top-off essential fluids, and perform a free inspection on the rest of your vehicle. Make an appointment for an oil change service today and let the oil experts take care of your Corolla's engine.
Oil Change Q&A for Your 2021 Toyota Corolla
-
What does it mean if my Toyota Corolla oil light comes on? Your Toyota Corolla oil change reminder light might illuminate if it’s been too long since your last oil change. On the other hand, the oil pressure light might illuminate due to a clogged oil filter, a faulty oil pressure sensor, low engine oil levels, or a malfunctioning oil pump.
-
How hard is it to change Toyota Corolla oil at home? Changing engine oil at home isn’t as simple as it’s made out to be. You’ll have to figure out how to properly dispose of the oil and buy special tools. Having your oil changed professionally can not only reduce the risk of something going wrong during the service, but it’ll also help your car perform smoothly down the road.
-
Why is my Toyota Corolla spewing blue or gray exhaust smoke? Your engine could be burning oil due to a leak. It may be time for a pro to take a look. A leak can be caused by a variety of issues including faulty valve seals, blown piston rings, or damaged cylinder walls.

Common Engine Tune-Up Q&A for 2021 Toyota Corolla
-
When should Toyota Corolla spark plugs be replaced? When it’s time to replace the spark plugs, don’t delay.

Replace spark plugs on time or about every 30,000 miles or so.
-
What do I do if I see a pool of liquid under my Toyota Corolla? Puddles could indicate an oil leak, coolant leak, or brake fluid leak– all of which can critically hurt your engine. Have your engine inspected as soon as you spot a pool of liquid in your usual parking spot.
-
How often do Toyota Corolla fuel injectors need to be cleaned? The cleaning schedule for vehicle fuel injectors varies depending on your driving conditions and the type of fuel you use.

Reference your Toyota owner’s manual for exact guidelines.
2021 Toyota Corolla Suspension Service & Repair
When you first drove your 2021 Toyota Corolla, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy. Maybe your Corolla jolts, drifts to one side, or makes noise whenever you turn or drive over a speed bump. As soon as you notice that something’s “off” with your 2021 Toyota Corolla, bring it in for suspension and steering service. We’ll get to the root of the issue and, if your Corolla suspension system needs repair, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost.
Questions About 2021 Toyota Corolla Steering & Suspension
-
Why is my Toyota Corolla bouncing excessively? If it feels like you’re on a trampoline every time your Corolla goes over a bump or dip, you may have a problem with your struts or shocks. Faulty shocks and struts can’t properly absorb road bumps, leading to a bouncy ride.
-
What can cause the front end of my Corolla to dip forward when I apply the brakes? The forward dip in the front end of your Corolla when you brake is caused by the weight and momentum transferring to the front wheels. If your suspension system is in bad shape, it can fail to distribute this force, leading your front end to dip further downward.
-
What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my Toyota's suspension? Maintaining your tires can help reduce strain on the suspension, nd also let you know when it's time to replace your tires. A faltering steering and suspension system could lead to uneven tire wear.
Convenient & Local 2021 Toyota Corolla A/C Service
Our trained technicians will do what they can to solve your 2021 Toyota Corolla A/C problems.

Finally, we’ll recharge the A/C system with new refrigerant.
Questions About 2021 Toyota Corolla A/C Systems
-
What’s making my Corolla A/C put out warm air? If your car’s air conditioning isn’t blowing cold air at all (or it tries, then turns warm), you could have a clogged expansion valve, a faulty compressor clutch, a leak, or a malfunctioning fuse in the system.
-
What can cause an A/C system leak? Over the years, the rubber seals and gaskets in your Corolla’s A/C system naturally degrade. Moisture can get into the system and cause a malfunction, or parts can simply wear out so that your system no longer seals properly.
-
Why does my Corolla’s A/C only work when the car is moving? A problem with one or more of your air conditioning or electrical system components could cause the A/C to only work when your Corolla is moving. You may be low on refrigerant, or the cooling fan could be faulty.

2021 Toyota Corolla Transmission Questions & Answers
-
When should I have my Corolla's transmission fluid checked or exchanged? Regularly checking and exchanging your 2021 Corolla’s transmission fluid is one of the best ways to help the transmission system perform. Some technicians would say that between 30,000 and 60,000 miles is a good timeframe for having your Toyota's transmission fluid checked and replaced, but that timeline can vary depending on how your vehicle is used and your manufacturer’s recommendations. The good news is that transmission fluid leaks are affordable to repair and easy to spot.
-
Is it possible for transmission fluid to leak from my Toyota Corolla? Yes. Toyota Corolla transmission fluid can leak over time and potentially cause transmission issues. Worn or damaged seals, a loose or damaged transmission pan, a cracked transmission housing, faulty transmission cooler lines, or an overfilled transmission could cause transmission fluid leaks.
-
Can I still drive my Toyota Corolla if it has a transmission fluid leak? You should avoid driving with a transmission fluid leak. Your transmission system relies on transmission fluid to operate properly, and a leak may decrease performance, cause your Corolla to overheat, or even lead to transmission failure.
