You should obtain a HAYNES auto manual on this ($20.00) at NAPA stores. This is too involved to discuss here. DO NOT go "a little tight" or "a little loose" because it may lead to excess noise (loose) or low compression (tight). The best deal is to get it as close to correct as possible.

This is a "warm adjust" type engine. So while at opperating temp with engine off, remove valve cover, and the lash is as follows... Intake 0.20mm (0.008in) Exhaust 0.30mm (0.012in)

Now there is a TDC, order of adjustment procedure that I am leaving out, but it basically common sense. Just adjust the valves when the lobe on the cam is pointing away from the rocker arm that your adjusting, so you will have to turn the engine over with a 19mm socket on the crank shaft. I wouldn't recommend turning it over by the cam:)

Good luck

You do not adjust the valve clearance on a 2008 Toyota until it has 60000 miles. At that point, you might pay for getting it checked, or check it yourself. However, Corollas normally run 100,000 miles and even longer without any need for adjusting the valve clearance.
