Yaris/Scion & Vitz :: 2006 - Clunk When Moving Off And Transmission Takes Up


Sep 4, 2014

Our Vitz 5 door hatch has about 127000km on it and sometimes when moving off makes a clunk as the transmission takes up. What could cause this it also dosent appear to have a transmission dip stick unlike our Platz. Both cars have the 1.5 motor but both are different years the Platz is 2002 and the Vitz 2006. The mechanic said the Vitz has a sealed for life type gearbox. The engine mounts appear to be okay. So where do I look now?

Yaris/Scion & Vitz :: 2012 - Noise Evident When Car Starts Moving

When my car is still and not moving it is quiet, and the noise does not exist.

As soon as the car starts moving, the noise starts and speeds up and slows down with the speed. The noise is there when i brake or when I don't brake, so I don't believe it has anything to do with the breaks.

To me (who knows nothing about the mechanics of a car) it seems like the wheel is not sitting on the road evenly.

I took it to the Toyota service centre and they said that they found a piece of loose metal somewhere and they can't hear any noise. But the noise was still evident as soon as i got back in the car and drove off. They checked the car over, and said it's fine.

I drove my brothers brand new Rav 4 to see if perhaps I am being overly sensitive with this sound and perhaps maybe it is just the sound of the tire on the road, but his car made no such sound.

It's not overly evident. I have to point it out to people, but once they hear it, they also say that it shouldn't make that sound.

Yaris/Scion & Vitz :: Bluish Color Smoke Coming Out From The Back - Transmission Fluid Leak

So I was on the highway today and all of a sudden I saw bluish color smoke coming out from the back of the car. I immediately pulled over the car and turned the engine off

When I got out of the car, I realized that the transmission fluid was leaking under the car and I think all transmission fluid got out for some reason

This is a 2009 Auto 1.6 engine toyota yaris in the USA. I bought the car with a clean car fax. but later on I learned that the transmission has been replaced. I bought the car on 2010 and when I bought, it had 16K miles now it has 60K miles. Bought it for 10K+tax.

Do you think my transmission is gone or is it just leaking? There were no problems no noise no low performance of any kind. How much would it cost to replace? or should I get a rebuild one? My mechanic friend checked the transmission and said I need a new one.

Yaris/Scion & Vitz :: 2003 - Echo Won't Start

My wife's 2003 Echo is sitting at 255 000 KM's (Canada) and has hardly had a days problem.However yesterday tried starting and completely dead-not battery as almost new. Ignition makes clicking noise-lights/radio etc all working.Called the BCAA ( Vancouver) the guy tapped with a pole on something in the engine and voila she started. He said something about the starter or starter solenoid-today again the car is dead. Will take it to the mechanic on Monday but how do I get it started meanwhile ? what did the BCAA guy do and what did he tap on ?

Yaris/Scion & Vitz :: Can't Remove Tail Light

I'm trying to remove the tail light units from my 2002 Toyota Yaris.

I've removed the central nut from the inside but the light unit won't budge. There are two other protuberances coming through the metal body work which are a plastic spigot, lower left of the metal bolt, and rubber type insert further away to the upper right.

I'm also presuming that there is some stiction with the gasket.

Even with the nut removed the outside of the unit has zero movement while the inside has a slight amount of flex.

Am I missing something?

Yaris/Scion & Vitz :: Tick For A While That Goes With Engine Revs

Back in September '12, I was on the freeway and merging quickly into the fastlane/passing lane on the freeway-- third gear, near 80mph. Going for fourth gear was a brief misshift into second that apparently happens often with cars with the 1NZ-FE.

Because of that over-rev, I've since had an annoying tick that goes with the engine revs. It's been going strong regardless for over 10,000 miles, but it's frustrating nonetheless. Compression seems fine on all cylinders, and according to a shop I'm not primed to believe, the shims for the valves are fine and these engines "always sound like that." My video begs to differ.

For those who've maybe had the same sound, what's your take? I've heard of stretched timing chains/chain slack, water pump, clutch issues, etc., but want to narrow it down.

You get the contrast here, and toward the end I nearly over-lap the shots to hear them closer together. [URL] ....

Yaris/Scion & Vitz :: 2002 - No Cold Air But The Fan Still Blows

When I turn the a/c on, sometimes the compressor engages and sometimes it does not. When it does, I feel the engine's idle change and out comes very cold air. After a few minutes or longer, no more cold air but the fan is still blowing. If I quickly turn the a/c off and then back on again this seems to jump start the compressor and poof, out comes the cool air again. Sometimes it will begin producing cool air again on its own but most of the time I have to resort to turning it off, then back on. I don't believe I have a leak because otherwise no cool air would be emitted at all or the quality of the cool air would be poor.

Yaris/Scion & Vitz :: How To Take Apart The Rear Hatch Lock

I suspect that the 2006 Yaris rear hatch cylinder would work on my 2004 echo, so I got it from a u-pull. However it seems to be a bit gummed up with something, and I want to take it apart (far enough to rekey, basically).

I've got the spring clip off the back, and took out the back plate with the coil spring. I've cleaned up the metal cylinder and removed the spring at the back, but I don't know how to take the whole thing apart to clean the insides.
