The 2023 Toyota GR Corolla is truly a special car from Toyota! In this video we perform the first service on a 2023 Toyota GR Corolla core model and explore some of it's unique technical features.

This is the first 2023 Toyota GR Corolla that comes to the shop for a break in oil change and the owner was very nice to let us film it and share it with you. Thank you Ethan for trusting us with your beautiful GR Corolla.

We look at the exterior then the engine. Then we start the service and take a tour underneath it.

    Ethan has a sweet ride and the best mechanic in town. What more could anyone ask for? Thank you both.
  • @MalcolmCir
    I really appreciate a Master Tech's perspective of the underside of this car-- in a sea of enthusiasts' videos about the GR Corolla. Not for everybody, but I really love that you showcase the practical "Toyota-ness" even with this one. Perfect Saturday video. And thanks, Ethan!
  • Man this guy’s knowledge and honesty is to another level! I just wish we had more mechanics like him around! As always amazing job!🙏👌😎👍thank you both! Ethan and you!
  • That's exactly what makes Toyotas special and long lasting... (Basic and to the Point). Everything you need, no fluff or gimmicks. Good stuff like always. 👍
  • Hi Ethan, thanks for bringing your car to be able to be seen on this channel. This is what a toyota car should be simple and easy to maintain. The beauty of orginal toyota automotive engineering works
  • Thank you Ethan for sharing your new Corolla GR! I know you love it, I just bought my brand new 2022 with 4 miles Corolla XSE Hatchback in color wind chill pearl, black metallic top with moon stone interior 6 speed IMT from Miami Kendall Toyota "special order." The 2022 is the last year Toyota will make the manual in the Corolla except the GR. Flew from Michigan picked it up on Sept 30th 2022 broke the motor in driving it back. 2022 is the last year Toyota will make the Corolla in a manual except for the GR which you may know. I love the GR you have! Is the color wind chill pearl? Thank you out to you Car Care Nut for your Toyota videos! My husband had your site pop up and follows you! We have 2RX'S 2000 & 2006 and a 2002 LS 430 With just over 129,000 miles. So that is a total of 4 Toyota's! My first Lexus was a SC300 1993. My husband said NO WAY! He was under the impression they were expensive to maintenence LOL! He "WAS" a Buick man, I converted him as you can see! We will be coming to you with the LS430 This summer from Michigan. We will see you soon. We will call for an appointment! Thank you!

    European viewer here! I’ve been watching your videos recently and I have massive respect not only for your vast knowledge but for your work ethics as well. You just showed it when inquiring at the dealer about the full spec of the provided engine oil. I know other professionals wouldn’t have questioned the suitability of the provided oil by Toyota wich is scary specially when we are talking about a new never worked on before engine! As a fellow mechanic I wish there were more professionals like you in our field my friend. PS: I wish you had the opportunity to feature the GR Yaris as well some day. Maybe some customer from Mexico could help!
  • AMD, What a pleasant surprise for all of us. Yes, these cars are meant to be driven. I really, really HOPE Toyota can produce enough of them to keep up with demand and keep prices reasonably reasonable.😉 With Ethan's help I think you beat the whole world in doing a (well researched) GR Corolla oil change on Youtube. AMD, when will you be getting your own GR Corolla? 🤔
  • @chicoleek
    Cheers, Ethan... we should all be lucky enough to have this kind of caring mechanic work on our Toyotas!
  • Thank you Ethan for being so generous with your time You have a great mechanic friend now and one with the epitome of integrity...drive safe, brother.
  • @stevep5736
    A beautiful machine indeed. Toyota at its best ! Thank you Ethan for sharing your vehicle with us !!
  • @The2004STi
    Yessss just got mine Thursday night and drove it for the first time yesterday, I was anxiously waiting for you to get your hands on one. Just found your channel as well so the timing couldn't have been better.
  • @JPX20005
    Thank you Ethan, you have the best mechanic EVER! Good purchase and keep your relationship with this great man because he knows his stuff from top to bottom, enjoy!! You have a car that will last you a very long time , stick with this awesome mechanic!
  • Thank you Ethan. I am a VW GTI guy for the last 30 years+ (currently have a 2000 VR6 with 405K with manual transmission minimum issues). This GR is nice will definitely look in to the GR when its time to change. As always great video. Oh by the way also own a 2012 Corolla LE with approx 95K on it, runs like a champ with basic maintenance. Thank you
  • @pmkstudios

  • Hi Ethan, Congratulations on your new GR Corolla and finding the right garage for future maintenance.👏👏👏👏 If you are driving this all winter in the Salt Belt please invest in winter tires and PLEASE get it rustproofed.🤩
  • Hey Ethan, thanks bro. I am really glad that you have gotten all that patience to allow AMD to shoot this video so that we the car care nut guys could get a quick run through on the New Best Brand car, especially the Corolla in such fashion. Big ups to AMD every time, one of the best machines in the world. 👍👍👍👍👍
  • Thanks Ethan. I have a 2014 Corolla and I’m hoping to get a Corolla GR soon. 🙏🏾
