The government has from time to time issue is being discussed on the prohibition of right rudder, but to bring to its logical conclusion, this act of our "public servants" is still wary. And rightly so. It is believed that the adoption of this law the whole Far East and parts of Siberia, Russia will no longer be called. Probably still more convenient to travel with the left rudder in a country where the right-hand traffic. Although I personally do not care, and addiction to the right of the steering wheel of an ordinary driver takes no more than two days. Installing a system of mirrors to the left rack can solve the problem of overtaking. What if there are no more such proposals in terms of price / quality? Someone is willing to put up with sluggish dynamics and squalid appearance for comparable money, and some do not. In a democracy everyone should have a choice. Someone chooses a straight-through muffler and tinted windows, someone stopping dynamics and an unusual appearance at the same price range, paying for this unusual arrangement of a rudder. But enough of the lyrics, now directly on our current hero. Toyota Corolla Levin / Trueno in the bodywork AE110/111 appeared in Japan in 1995, released 5 years and was discontinued only in August 2000. Is not quite clear why this an extremely popular car is not exported. I'm sure he would find a buyer. However, he found it so. Even in Moscow, not to mention the Far East, people for whom the dynamic riding - an important component, more often stop their choice on this machine. There are more powerful devices, such as Supra or Skyline, but the prices on them, to put it mildly, upset. Levin / Trueno - a sports coupe weighs a ton. A choice of three engines and three box. Motors: 5AFE volume 1,5 l 105 hp, 4AFE volume of 1,6 l 115 hp and "masthead» 4AGE Black Top volume of 1,6 l capacity of 165 hp Boxes are as follows: 5 - and 6-speed "mechanics" and "automatic". The machine is also equipped with two suspension variants - standard and so-called Super Strut Suspension. The standard front suspension is a conventional "McPherson" by stabilizatorm lateral stability, in the back - a proprietary "toyotovskogo on wishbone and longitudinal rods with metal joints in the structure. If the rear suspension to change something, do not forget to make the similarity of the collapse, but it "eat" the rubber. No washers and bolts is not necessary, on each side of the split transverse thrust with which the operation and carried out. Super Strut - a front multi-link suspension, unique designs, any analogs that do not ever see. Must take into account that the cost of its maintenance is much higher, but it's not so bad - the reliability of the car for the domestic market, the Japanese are traditionally very high, much for Toyota quality - it's almost a fetish. The machine apparently gives the impression of their sporting appearance. Many take Levin in simple trim, dynamics while driving around the city enough. Maintenance of these vehicles do not require any special knowledge or skills - oil filters and 5AFE 4AFE identical, 4AFE generally shipped to Europe, and Russia, was placed on the Corolla, Carina E, Avensis. Air and fuel filters are not a deficit - the market there are many "neoriginala. Access to the fuel filter is simple - he is under the hood, unlike the later models, which need to climb into the tank to replace it. In the "mechanics" pour 75W90, the machine - DEXRON III. And that, and another - better synthetic origin. In the engine will go the usual standard viscosity oil - 5W40. I hope everyone understands that it must be imported. Maybe make a decent Russian oil, but as they say, better safe than sorry. The machine alone, and overhaul the engine and road is long. More detail should refer to "top" versions. With motor 4AGE aggregated and "automatic", and 6-step "mechanics". "Automatic" to take no advice - bad for the speakers. Motor vysokooborotisty, it is necessary to twist. And how to do it on the machine? When starting from a place you can fall behind and the 4AFE, then, the truth catches up, but the feeling is still not the same. Suspension is possible as usual, and SSS. There will not be advised. Super Strut - expensive, but in turn keeps the machine the way to the last, at a speed of 160 km / h goes like on rails, despite the low weight. Rear brakes, as in most "Japanese", disc, with a screw-piston. Change the rear pads are not so simple - it is important to maintaining performance handbrake too. When servicing the vehicle, keep in mind: oil filter on a Black Top, just in case the ladies room - 90915-10002/10004. 4AGE engine in its own way unique - 20 valves, VVTi, on the throttle for each cylinder. Needs thorough attention. Recommended from time to time "to put" the tachometer needle to the red zone to avoid coking of the Rings. Vysokooborotisty motor requires high-quality oil, I would advise the viscosity of not less than 50 centistokes. Something like 5W50, 10W60, Mobil and Castrol is released. The timing of all three engines - the belt, respectively, with the time change should not pull. Series motors 4A sometimes suffer from excessive "sweat" glands, changing with the belt and rollers at the first sign. The drive-valve 4AGE - hydraulic lifters for 4AFE and 5AFE - shims. Sizes - from 2,5 mm and then every 0,05 mm. Spark plugs in top-end version - platinum, in a simple - the usual. "Toyotovskogo" supplier of candles - the company Nippon Denso, and their best bet. Unfortunately, they are extremely sensitive to iron supplements in the fuel. Just one inferior filling petrol can bring them down. Get up, you certainly do not stand up, but a pass in the cylinders will immediately feel that something was wrong. Removing a spark from the engine, look - there is a reddish-orange coating on the electrodes. If there is, throw away and buy new, there's nothing to be done about it. Therefore I will give a little advice: if you have a simple motor, 4 or 5AFE, refill the 92-m, he did a little better. And if forced 4AGE, then only good filling stations and 95 th in order to avoid deterioration. The car is best to book auction, with a rating of at least 4. Delivery will have to wait, but will be sure that the machine is not broken, not painted, and the native run. Mileage Japanese cars, bought by the rules, rarely more than 100 thousand kilometers. For Toyota it - is nonsense. Residual life of the vehicle such that the new budget foreign car in the same class fall apart much sooner. On the production of domestic automakers simply silent. Levin is now in the top-end configuration will cost in Moscow, about 300 thousand rubles. What else can you buy for the money? Only the products of domestic car industry, or Chevrolet Lanos, ie Opel Kadett 1984 model or Renault Logan 1.4 liter engine with. Even the Aveo is more expensive. What we have for this money? A powerful sports car of one of the most renowned manufacturers, air conditioning, ABS, air bags, a box of gear ratios similar to each other. In the negative - only the right wheel, but this negative rather virtual, a matter of habit.
