Run the window full down, hold the button a couple of seconds after it hits the bottom. Then do the same thing rolling the window up - let it hit the top and hold the button up a couple of seconds. Then it will work, and you actually need to do that every time you disconnect your battery to teach the automatics where the bounds are or something. Procedure is noted in the owner's manual actually, and I think that is what you have there

[@ZGVlogs]

Whats this for?

[@99arsenii]

@@ZGVlogs I'm not sure, it just "forgets" how to operate windows when you disconnect the battery. As far as I know this is a Toyota thing at least in cars of that era. I've actually watched the video further and maybe you have some other issue there if you can auto-operate window from passenger's switch but not from the driver's - I'll check it later on mine as I recently changed the battery and only set up the driver controls. Also thing to note, at least on mine - the heater radiator clogs up or whatever and requires cleaning or it doesn't produce heat. There should be an entire thread on the internet about this issue and how to clean it, but in case somebody is looking to buy a TS or a TTE/Compressor - check that it blows hot air properly on all vents

[@99arsenii]

I've checked and for me windows work both from driver's and from all passenger controls. However in any case you can try it and see if it helps

[@keyurgobind7212]

Do Your Regular Maintenance/Service And Always Monitor Your Oil Levels .Thank Me Later Also With Fuel Consumption Clean Your Maf Sensor Be Gentle And Also Depending On Your Footing If You're Hitting Lift Everytime Say GoodBye To Fuel And Oil . Just Monitor Your Driving Pattern And Style .Great Car Here In SA It's Called The RunX.❤️🙏

[@ZGVlogs]

Yea I do keep on top of maintainence and I'm going through cleaning the TB and that anyway, and yea my fuel economy has got better lately TBH

[@BrianShawEire]

I've an Auris SR180 and a few of these issues carry over onto the Auris window rubbers boot rubbers are a big pain, general wear points but as you said they are 15year old cars in my case she's 2009 so she's done well for age of her, and I know a few owners have been rough on her. Don't even want to talk about mpg 😂.

[@lomfmur]

You're getting better mpg's than I am in my 06 Corolla XRS, though of course here in Canada fuel's a lot cheaper

[@NUDIFRAMAR]

Loved your wheels man! Can you tell me the model and size?

[@ZGVlogs]

@@NUDIFRAMAR Can't remember what they were but they were 17"

[@ant7018]

Clean the maf sensor and if fuel consumption is still sh#t change both o2 sensors, very common issue with toyotas of this era 👍

[@ZGVlogs]

I get no codes for the O2 sensors tho. Never had a check engine light or anything. Would it still possibly be faulty with no code?

[@ant7018]

@@ZGVlogs yeah definitely mate, if its just just dirty it will still think it's OK but because it's getting the wrong reading it sends the wrong volts to the ecu which adds more fuel because it thinks the car is still cold. Cheaper option would be to spray brake cleaner on them or soak them in a bucket for a few hours to remove carbon and grime but you will have to thoroughly dry them after. I've experienced and read a lot of people getting the results they need just by sorting the o2 sensors

[@ZGVlogs]

@@ant7018 may have to have a look at that mate. Thanks for the heads up

[@turbotunna3794]

Hmmm, here in Australia we only have the 4 door version (Sportivo) and I have an 04 which gives me 35mpg all year round on only 98octane with a combo of highway and city driving which is pretty spirited.

[@maj6150]

I just bought a cheap one with 100k on it after selling my mint one (kicked myself for doing that) .. its decent condition and everything seems to be working. Mechanically its sound. But got a few bits to sort. I got really bad headlights i need to polish. Good video.

[@ZGVlogs]

Yea my headlights are shot which is annoying

[@maj6150]

My centre console door flap thing is also broken and im looking for a driverside seat handle/lever (the smaller one), think its moves the seat high and low

[@Usman-tx2hp]

how much did you get it for?

[@bloggman2883]

One of the dual pitch horns is broken. That's why it sound so bad

[@klokan174]

So, this fuel consumption on the dash usually isn't accurate, better use app to calculate your mileage. My friend's Corolla 1.4 eats 3.5l/100 (80 UK MPG) according to that, which is bullsh*t. This car eats fuel when driving in town, but I could achieve 6.6l/100 (42.8 UK MPG) when driving highway with light foot. Also, people don't buy car like this to achieve best MPG haha. About this E10, you can use E10 with your additives without problems. I use additives, every third or fourth tank I fill up with E5 to clean it up a bit, no problem ever. Automatic wipers work pretty nice for me, when you start AUTO mode, you can use the inner ring to adjust intensity. Automatic windows need to be set up whenever you disconnect battery, you need to re-learn positions as the guy Shorrer described in his comment.

[@ZGVlogs]

Yea I know the trip computer ain't true regarding consumption, but the rate it goes through fuel was mad (we were at high fuel prices too), and for some reason it seems to be slightly better now. I do E5 every other tank or at least once every 4 weeks. I never knew I could adjust the intensity, I'm gunna play with that now with the Wipers and my battery has never been disconnected in my ownership

[@klokan174]

@@ZGVlogs Yeah, I couldn't figure out for a while, but there are marks with + and - on the wiper control stalk. Its purpose is to change how automode reacts on water drops in front of rain sensor. Well, you should give it a try, when you are relearning auto windows, you just need to press the button in second position and hold it until window goes up and a bit more, you will hear quiet knock from the window. Then do the same with down side, just hold button in second position and go all the way down and a bit more and you will hear silent knock again. Then your auto windows should work :)

[@ZGVlogs]

@@klokan174 cheers bro, will deffo take a look at that

[@princess89pinky]

Please don't put E10 in her 😂 it doesn't bead up the same as she will run shitter. E5 you do get more miles and more responsive. Wipers I agree 😂 mine don't go into psycho mode though lol. Windows mine are fine so yours has something up mate. Doors mine is the same it goes saggy. I'm gona retrim mine shortly because it does make it look a lot worse. The centre console flap is so common it's rare to find one that isn't broke 😂 and omfg I'm howling at the horn 😂😂😂 I've always said the same lol weak af. Mine doesn't even work atm lol uts keeps disconnecting so ill get a new one

[@princess89pinky]

Boot seal is common. My old pfl was swimming under the spare wheel so check it and pull the plug. That heat sheild is always prone to come off because they rust through easy. I pulled the back one off my pfl because it was rattling. Headlights are a ballache. They're all the same. You can get a kit to do them but I just wrapped mine 😂

[@princess89pinky]

Gear ratios are a bit shitty I agree but I do like the 6200rpm lift. I feel if it was lower say 5000rpm you would be in lift too much. Dropping a gear would nearly always put you in it and therefor increase fuel consumption and lift cam wear.

[@princess89pinky]

What annoys me.... stock stereo is crap. Get rid of it and you can't see your mpg to complain 😂😂😂 also while on the stereo the dash is prone to warping around the top so the facia never fits right. The wingmirrors whistle at high speeds unless you have both wind deflectors on the windows and the wingmirrors. The body roll on the lower FL is still bad as is the dif. The stock callipers are designed by fucktards and not got enough force for these cars imo everyone should refurb or replace them before they sieze up 😂 also the alloys should be wider. Its a hot hatch it needs better handling. The steering wheel should adjust position more. The drivers seat should go lower. The horn sounds like a duck under the bonnet. The engine trays are so annoying I want to yeet them over the fence but I like my bay being clean so I can't and have to put up with the rattling. The saggy door cards as you said. And lastly. I want my centre are rest further forward 😂 I like to lean my arm on it and I can't in this lmao. Oh and the seat belt position is annoying if you have passengers in the 3dr version. You have to take it off or they crawl under lol. That's my pet peaves lol

[@phxlfxceplxnt7114]

Ay! We follow each other on instagram, what a funny thing to find you here! Greetings from germany!

[@BlackLines]

Run a microfibre cloth over that dash, I'm getting itchy watching this video lol.

[@ZGVlogs]

I know it's bad 😂 I'll get it cleaned hahah

[@smeliscave]

9l is ok tho

Bad maintenance. Look after your car
