  • Headlights are blind – no TÜV

    Hello together, I have a Yaris 1,3 VVT with 64KW. Key numbers are the following: 5048/074 (Yaris I, 5-door). First registration: March 2004 Unfortunately I did not come over the TÜV today. The headlights were contested. Mr. TÜV said these were “typically” blind or something. Yes, ok, they are a little “scratched”, but light give them still excellent. But well. Now the TÜV was for the cat. Now you have to help me because I really have no idea. It’s mine he As new lights are out of the question (according to ATU 430 Euronen), I would like to find another option. I have already found them here:http://www.pkwteile.de/johns/2083357 But can you install something like this without hesitation? Do they then go via the TÜV and are they what? I also need such a actuator. Whether this is already in it? I have already read that one can polish something away. But with some it did not work or only a little and the “blind” is also Does anyone have experience with it? Or can I recommend lights? I have to show the new lamps again in 4 weeks… oh God. Thank you in advance, Anna.

  • Yaris purchase advice

    Hello together, After 10 dear years I must slowly but surely separate from my 1er bmw. He now has the 18 on the hump and the problems unfortunately become bigger and bigger… Valvetronic, engine ventilation, rust,….. So far I have actually read a lot good about Toyota and the Yaris. But the more I am through the forum (and the 12V starter battery problems do not seem to exist only in this forum) the more uncertain I am. We need a car that we need from time to time. Wah Probably so 2-4 times a week, rather short distance. A longer distance can be sometimes, but not weekly. We wanted an annual car, or a day registration. We would get that, but the more I read in about the yaris, the more I get away from it? I want a car that drives and starts when I need it. Are the problems really that bad, or do I imagine that? The firmware update and a larger one (e.g. a 12v 55ah battery), would the hi If I don’t drive for 5 days and have to go to the garage with a stomach ache, I find that a bit stupid. Or you fly 2-3 weeks on holiday. The first plot is then the amac? Puh. Somehow not a good start. I really thought Toyota is a great brand. Apparently they have improved the yaris in the last years but not only… I don’t want to have to handle the car every time I need the car with a mobile starter pack. e alternative and he doesn’t have the problems? Even seems to have a little more ps and to be a ticking cheaper. I’m honest. I don’t know about cars so well, I just want a car that is cheap in the maintenance, stable, reliable, with automatic. Do you have a tip what makes more sense here?

  • Toyota Yaris 2011 engine starts braking on increases

    Good evening, today after 1h driving on the highway I drove down from this and at a traffic light which was on a hill (so you have to drive down a hill) stopped. After I slowed down, the engine went out and the following control lights went on: battery, oil indicator, engine control light and another yellow light on the top right. After I started the car again everything went off perfectly – engine also n The same thing just happened at a traffic light that was at the bottom of the mountain. The battery is new and the alternator was changed 3 years ago. Can one of you help me? I’m very desperate because the car doesn’t cause any problems – just on the slope. Thank you for your help!

  • Help for my AYGO

    Hello everyone, I’ve been driving an Aygo for about a year, but this does cause huge problems. The consumption is on average 6,2l, only on the country road and at least 30 min. driving time much too high. Also the engine power is certainly not as it should be. The motro runs again and again restless, and the performance falls partly so far, that I can not keep on the country road, at headwind, despite full throttle and shut down the speed. With this problem I have already been to my factory town several times, which told me, however, that the engine power is now like this with a 3-cylinder and the consumption data of Toyota are so literal: “Marketing washes on which one does not need to give”. I then turned to the Toyota customer service, in the hope that one would be more competent and helpful here. But also here (or would like) one can not help me. Did any of you v or even a solution ready? Many thanks in advance, I count on you.

  • Yaris with MultiMode transmission

    Hello together, I ordered the new Yaris with this MultiMode transmission about a week ago. However, I could only test the diesel variant, because hardly any MultiMode could be obtained from the dealer… The diesel was quite fast but I fear that it is not so fast with the 1.3 petrol engine? Is there perhaps someone here who drives such a petrol engine? I drive a smart one so far, therefore I am satisfied with this automatic variant of the Yaris. his 60 HP but also a brisk suit in the city…. Will I miss this at the Yaris? LG Yaris2006

  • yaris 4D consumption

    Hello everybody, for 3 weeks I have been driving the Yaris Diesel and would like to know how your consumption of the diesel is? The first three tank fillings have consumed the car with moderate driving between 4.5 and 4.8 liters. On the weekend I made a tour of 400 km with the cars occupied by four people. Speed so 120-140, running air conditioning and about 1 hour traffic jam. There the Yaris swallowed 5.8 l diesel. Well, it seems a lot to me. So just over five would have been o k found. Regardless of this tour I thought that I could drive the car just below the indicated 4.5 liters. The seller said the consumption would be the first 5-6tsd kilometers like with tightened handbrake. Is that so? wynton

  • Aygo quality bads – Toyota blocks off.

    Moin, since October 2005 I am the owner of an Aygo Club. Additional equipment: TomTom Go. Now to the quality: In the beginning the car sounded quite kernely for a 3 – cylinder, if not sporty. In the meantime a clear rattle can be heard from the rear when you switch down (in the 2nd to take the traffic lights still with you). The car was already 2 times at the dealer. Response: “There’s nothing rattles, there’s nothing rattles.” 2 buddies of mine, who can handle cars very well, have sic h that once listened and also heard a Rasslen (even though they had no comparable value!) But it goes on: The seals on the doors are so bad that when driving, it can be heard correctly, how the doors move in the seal. If you hold a finger in the seal (when driving), you also notice correctly how the door moves. The car was already in the workshop because of that. Reaction Toyota: “We have fixed that.” Unfortunately, the problem occurred already after approx. . one month again. Reaction Toyota:”That can’t be, there’s nothing wrong with it.” To these shortcomings there are more, like: – speakers broken at the rear right, chatting after repair by Toyota. “There’s nothing going on! The car is not a disco.” (Toyota Hander) Note: I never have the music fully open. But no matter… Bluetooth built into TomTom Navi is constantly failing its service. Interlocutors can’t (or barely) hear me. Reaction Toyota: “There we can n The Toyota is my legal partner, according to the statement “quietly doesn’t care”. Soon they will start to refer to a part that comes from a supplier (e.g. electronics) also to the ?!? What can / should I do? I have the feeling that Toyota produces a scrap car with the Aygo and rides on an insanely high horse, á la “we are Toyota, we are according to tests the best in terms of quality. Can’t even do be that the Aygo is bad.” Of course, you can’t expect a dream car for 12,000 EUR, but a solid quality and a manufacturer/retailer that meets the problems, right? Please help! Do you have experience or good advice? Do you also drive an Aygo? With best regards, PowermanSA
