This may be relevant. Is your car a petrol?

Also

The 2003-2008 Corolla comes with the 1.8-liter 16-valve DOHC engine with the VVT-i (Variable Valve Timing). This engine uses a long-lasting timing chain; there is no timing belt to replace.

Yep, 1.4 VVTi Corolla has a timing chain and should last the life time of the engine.
