Toyota's Secret Life?

Thing is, it's got this weird hum... only when I'm going above 60 mph. It's not a major problem, but it's driving me nuts. Mechanic said nothing's wrong, but I swear I hear it. Anyone else have experience with a Corolla this old making a weird noise at speed? Or maybe it's just me being paranoid. Is this a common thing? I'm thinking of trading it in already if it's gonna cost a fortune to fix. It's a great car otherwise, though.

Could be a few things. Wheel bearings are a common culprit at higher speeds in older cars. Also check your tires, uneven wear can cause a hum. A failing transmission mount could also vibrate more noticeably at higher speeds. Before you trade it in, get a second opinion from a different mechanic, maybe one specializing in Toyotas. It's cheaper than a new car, even if it needs a minor repair. Don't jump to conclusions until you've exhausted all relatively inexpensive troubleshooting options.

Yeah, good points. I hadn't thought about the transmission mount. It does seem to get louder when I'm accelerating uphill... hmm. I'll definitely get a second opinion before I do anything drastic. Thanks for the advice!

Their som tam is prob the most authentic I've found in the city, and the grilled chicken is always on point. Anyone else go here?

Krua Dok Mai Kao is solid but I've always found their som tam a bit tame on the pla ra. If you want the real funky version, try the shophouse spots along Soi Udomsuk 26, near the night market end. They pound it fresh with fermented fish that'll clear your sinuses, and it's like 60 baht. Different style from the On Nut places, more Lao-leaning.

for som tam specifically i'd say the Isaan spots in Chatuchak are underrated, weekdays only though since the weekend crowd ruins the vibe. there's a stall near gate 2 that does tam pa with fermented bamboo shoots, super sour and funky, not something you see much in On Nut. if you're already heading north for Or Tor Kor anyway its worth the detour.

honestly the som tam at Krua Dok Mai Kao is good but what got me hooked is their nam prik pla raa dip with the raw veggies, that funk hits way harder than the papaya does. think most people sleep on it cuz they just order the som tam and gai yang. also pro tip, go before noon on weekdays, after that teh pla ra gets milder cuz they batch it for the lunch rush
