Toyota Starlet Q&As
Check out real-world situations relating to the Toyota Starlet here, particularly what our experts have to say about them.

Standardise all dashboards
PERHAPS you should ask yourself why our governments haven't standardised with most of the world on left-hand drive. That would fix your complaint immediately. The reason carmakers don't standardise is the cost of engineering cars for right-hand-drive markets. Jumping between cars all the time I, too, occasionally wipe the windscreen when I don't mean to, but do it once and you learn not to do it again. It's not a big deal in my view.

Any old fuel
YOUR Starlet should run on regular unleaded without pinging, so I'd suspect crook fuel. Try different outlets using different brands, making sure you buy from a high-volume outlet so you're not buying old fuel.
