Hello, I have the impression that both VRC and ESP do not work properly with my CV D-Cat. It is almost impossible to drive quickly on wet roads without the wheels turning off in the second gear. In spite of new winter tyres, it is almost impossible to prevent the wheels from turning through despite the gentlest handling of the accelerator pedal. Also, on wet roads with a brisk driving pattern, the ESP uses on a curvy track (warm flashes and it beeps), ic h, however, cannot detect any effect of the ESP. The vehicle pushes over the front wheels and it doesn’t really matter whether ESP is switched on or off. It can only be stabilized if one goes from the gas or decouples. The dealer says that can’t be because the fault memory would not show a message. Does anyone have similar experiences? (To prevent funny comments I would like to mention that I have been driving for almost 30 years and certainly have a driving practice of 500.00 km. be also with my previous cars like BMW 535i and Volvo 940, both of which had no traction control, despite rear drive never had the problems described above).

Hello dear forum, we are faced with the decision to hand over our 3 year old Corolla Verso D-CAT (Diesel, 177 HP) (Leasing End) and to buy a new one. With the VERSO as a car we are in principle (equipment) satisfied. The new D-CAT does not come into question because we drive almost 90% short distance in the city and in the last 6 months had very big problems with the free burning of the soot particle filter (see the thread below). In contrast, the acceleration values of the D-CAT were always great. We would like to decide now for the new 1.8 L petrol engine with 147 hp – unfortunately there is no useful test report for this engine in the entire network except for a (very negative) article of the ADAC? According to my information this engine should also be installed in the new Avensis (since 01/2009 in D on the market) – but here I found nothing useful (also not in the Avensis forum here on the page). W he from the Moto experts can tell us whether this engine offers reasonably reasonable driving performance? It does not matter to us at the top speed, but rather the elasticity when overtaking (e.g. acceleration from 80 km/h to 120 km/h etc.). According to the ADAC report at least in the Avensis a transmission should be installed, which has a very long translation in the 5th and 6th gear – not exactly optimal for short sprints. Thanks in advance to all who can say something about this. Stefan

Hello, I observe with me that the average consumption indicator shows about 5 – 12 % less than I actually calculate when refueling. I have already read from Mazda 5 and Auris that there is a possibility there to set a deviation in percent, which should always be taken into account, so that if you then have enough data about your own car (e.g. after 5 – 10 tank fillings), then we can say that always 10% should be added to it. h goes at Corolla Verso? I bought the car built in 2008, actually 2009, probably built in December 2008. MfG cvontour

Hello together, must admit, I’m a little disappointed. Buy me a Toyota because this should be very reliable. just after an odysse with Opel not a bad consideration. But after 20,000 !!! km a transmission damage was diagnosed. Ok can come to every car brand, will certainly not change the brand, because I am in total very satisfied with my dare. But that can not be normal. Have you had similar experiences? Everything started with a sc Hinting noise, which disappeared with the clutch, and increased with a clear bearing noise in idle.
