This service and repair manual covers the 2001 Toyota Corolla as Toyota built it, down to the 1.8L four (1ZZ-FE) and the CE, LE and S trims sold that year, so when you work to a clearance figure or a tightening sequence in it you are working to the number Toyota released for this build and not one that belongs to a different Corolla year.

Known issues on the 2001 Corolla. Three recalls are on federal record for this model year, and all three cover parts sold for the car as aftermarket or replacement equipment. Two of them concern exterior lighting: DOPE, Inc. recalled 42,540 combination corner and bumper lamp assemblies sold for use as aftermarket equipment, and SaberSport recalled 16,270 assemblies of the same type, both for the same reason, that decreased lighting visibility may result in a vehicle crash. The third covers suspension, specifically front strut mounts branded as Gabriel Ride Control or ArvinMeritor and sold as replacement equipment, where the absence of the weld can allow the strut to come out of its mounting position. Owners have filed 163 complaints for the year and Toyota has issued 53 technical service bulletins.
Whether you are aiming a replacement headlamp, pulling a front strut mount that never sat right, or holding the 1.8L four to its service intervals, this manual keeps you on Toyota's procedure and Toyota's specification for this 2001 Corolla.
