No I cannot.

But I was in a pile of snow which tore away a plastic underneath my Yaris. I recognize the windshield washer tank! It cost $1000 to fix it.

Two-door Yaris hatchback with a manual transmission is the most practical car made. With the rear seats down it’s almost like a mini pick up truck.

If you aren’t happy with your clutch operation,bleed the clutch cylinder. Since the clutch is operated about 100 times more than the brakes are, it should be bled once a year.

I assume this is a manual transmission?

If so, have your mechanic lubricate the shifter cables.

Good luck and tell us what happens!

It’s a 2020 corolla with a 1.8 L engine. 2023 carollos have the 2 L engine high output. If you want the most horsepower see if a 2 L will drop in.

Would you explain what fluid film is? Never heard of it. I see you live in Maryland. Is that where the car is from? In that case there should be a little to no rust on it.
