Yeah, that's what the mechanic said, it could jump over for 1 teeth and i could have a quite a big mess in the engine and 600 pounds bill for repairs. Well i hope that in 3 weeks nothing will happen, it's a very well made car :)

Hi guys, yesterday the car was serviced, oil was changed, I chose Castrol Edge FST 5W-30, new oil filter and new spark plugs. The noise that is coming from the engine is caused by a stretched timing chain, but it is not too critical since when you rev up the engine the noise dissapears when oil...

Thank you guys for your time, I'll get the car checked in a few weeks. I'll post the results, thanks again :)

I am using Dexos 2 5W-30. So sleeper what then is causing this trouble? 500 km more and i am going for an oil change, I change oil every 9000-10000 km. Should I switch to another type of oil, i.e Castrol 10W-30 since temperatures here in croatia rarely drops below -15 and goes over 35-40 degrees?

There were no faulty codes except few months ago, when the engine was running rich and catalytic converter failed, but that was solved, check my last 2 videos that I posted about the oil cap. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QvzLr-ZVIJ4&feature=youtu.be

Coolant and oil levels are stable, ill post a picture of the oil cap and the top of the engine, a video of the oil cap and another video of the engine running. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LvrvlU5fZ-A&feature=youtu.be - Oil cap

Come on guys, help me

Thanks for replying, I'll check that, could you please check at my post under engine questions for my Yaris about the stretched timing chain and the head gasket, I would appreciate that.

When do you need to change the oil in the gearbox, the car is Toyota Yaris 1.0 VVT-i, car has now 38500 miles (62000 km)? Sometimes it is difficult to change into reverse, you have to release the clutch or change in to some other gear but that also says in the handbook

Thanks waynne for replying, posting the link today. The car does not show any power loss or hesitation, runs like a charm, accelerates beautifully, it only idles rough. Car has only 38500 miles (62000 km)

Hi, a few months ago i had a problem with my Yaris 1.0 VVT-i. I had a blown gasket on my exhaust and a melted catalytic converter, cause of this problem was that my Oxygen probe (sonde) (I don't actually know how it is in english but in croatia we call it "lambda sonda" ) didn't comunicate with...

Well, actually you need 4 years of driving experience

Because in my country there's a stupid law that you cant drive anything over 85 kW if you are not 24 years old, you get a ticket if police catches you

130 is not an option, only to 85 kW are considered. What if I would change the injectors and maybe possibly change the turbo would it require any other bigger mechanical changes?
