B for... Buzz Mode?

Can't figure that last one out... the corolla's motor just makes a funny noise, but doesn't get anywhere any faster.

Lol on a more serious note, this car..... bleh.

Sorry to hear about the Z!!!

But to help you out, B is similar to 'engine brake', meaning it helps slow the car down a little bit when on a hill, etc..although it doesn't really work that well.

source - I sell Toyotas lol

Lol thanks... it was all in jest. I figured out what they are supposed to do, but yeah... kinda useless in this car. My husband's old Juke and current Maxima have awesome CVTs compared to this hunk. His Maxima is Not afraid to get the revs up, and tire chirps from launch were/are common when I drove either lol. The toyota, tho.... I've even tried revving before takeoff, but this transmission is afraid to hit anywhere close to the engine's power band until you're already going 60.

It does get great gas mileage, though.

Well that's why, its gas efficient not a performance sports car haha

I don't think those cars revvs aren't supposed to go above like 4k/min lol Super low shift points to be able to be gas efficient plus a small V4 engine.
Cant wait for your Z to get fixed haha!
