How the 2016 compares with nearby years
Against the 2015 Corolla: The high-beam bulb is the same in both manuals.
Against the 2017 Corolla: the two manuals do not print the same part types, so there is nothing to compare line by line.
The 2016 Corolla belongs to the 11th gen sedan (E170), which began with the 2014 model year (MY2017 refresh (LED headlights standard per Toyota; not detailed on Wikipedia)); generation dates. Parts often carry over within a generation, but the manual for your exact model year is the one to trust.

What the manual does not print
The 2016 Toyota Corolla owner's manual does not list wipers, battery and filters sizes; for the battery, read the label on the battery fitted to the car, then check the size against the BCI group chart; for wipers, measure each blade end to end and buy the nearest whole-inch size.
Buying the parts for a 2016 Corolla
- Headlight bulbs: the 9005 high beam are halogen capsules on trims that have them; buy them in pairs so both sides match in colour and output.
- Small bulbs: this manual names 5 replaceable bulb positions. Wedge bulbs such as W5W and 194 differ from twist-socket bulbs such as 7443 or 3157, so match the full number, including suffixes like NA (amber).
- Oil: ILSAC GF-5 SAE 0W-20. Use the grade printed for your engine if the manual lists more than one.
Check it on your car
Trim, engine and lighting package change some of these parts, so match the row that names your engine or trim. The facts on this page come from 2 pages of the manual (553, 559). Before you buy, compare the number printed on the old part with the table above. See how this site reads manuals.
