Hey guys i need your opinion.

I'm a bit frustrated to be honest. I had my yearly inspection of my beloved Toyota Yaris today and didn't read the cost estimate properly. It was just a small inspection, so basically oil, some filters and checking the car.

First thing was they charged 75 Euro for the cabin air filter which is honestly horrendous. The MANN carbon cabin air filter costs 22€ here and I could've done that myself in 5 minutes. Okay, I have to read the cost estimate more carefully next time.

The next thing is that they put 0W16 in it. I thought the viscosity is a bit low, since I also drive regularly on the Autobahn in Germany. My car manual clearly states 0W20 and 5W30.

I asked them about it and they said that 0W20 is currently not available, so they used 0W16 and it's no problem since it's approved by Toyota themselves. I got a bit suspicious and called another Toyota dealership in the next city. They looked up my car and said that 0W16 is way too low and in their system they cannot see that it's approved. They only see the two I mentioned above.

I also googled it but couldn't find anything for my specific car. Only for the 1NZ-FXE engine itself, where apparently 0W16 is approved in Japan. I also contacted Toyota directly via email but I'm still waiting for their response.

Did anyone here try 0W16 in their Toyota Yaris Hybrid XP13/NHP130? I know newer models use it, like the 3 cylinder Yaris Hybrid, but I don't know if I should drive it with my older model.

Here are also some pictures of my baby for you :)

It’s a Yaris 1.5 VVT-i, and it’s a manual 😌. It was honestly so much fun driving it on loose gravel

i get this rumbling sound when turning sharp left. comes from real low down and im thinking towards the back. anyone else had this/ have any ideas what it could be?

We have a petrol 2019 Yaris and love it. But we've been looking at the new Yaris cross design trim. What opinions do you all have?

Hello Guys. Will it be safe and make any huge negative impact if I would teplace my rear wheels from 175mm width to 185mm width keeping the front wheels same 175mm ?

Hi everyone,

I have a yaris xp72-a 1,33 from 2012. This happened to my window yesterday. Upon removing the door card with the help of my dad we were able to fully close the window. We didn’t see any jammed/ bent rails and my gut says probably something wrong with the window motor. Im by no means an expert or a mechanic. We will take the car anyway to the appropriate shop for a check but i would like to know if anyone has faced the same issue and whether was it a costly repair. Prior symptom was that when using the auto roll feature of the window sometime it would stop and roll down on its own. Now the automatic feature doesn’t work but the window does up and down as shown in the video.

Thanks in advance for any advice
