somthing vibrating/rattling in the engine compartment

[auto pal]

have any of you guys heard or felt like there's something
vibrating/rattling in the engine compartment, somewhere in front
of the steering wheel (left-hand drive), when the engine is idling
or when it's in drive or reverse and you're stepping on the brakes?

yesterday, i found out that it's the air filter box vibrating. there
must be something loose with the mounting or something because
when i press or put pressure on the box the vibrating stops.

haven't worked on it yet, though. maybe, this weekend.

our yarises are full of so many noises...i know the feeling

i can hear the engine "tapping" when i'm inside the car

my airbox is constantly "vibrating" when engine is on

there is a slight vibrating from my seat when idling

but i guess you get what you pay for

I get annoying vibrating and popping noises from the dash and rear view mirror.... I cant do anything about the noises.... I just try to ignore them.

Is your Yaris an automatic? Is the rattle worst when in reverse but not moving? If so it is the shifter cable rattling against a wire bracket meant to hold the cable away from the exhaust. I believe there is a TSB out for the fix which consists of a ziptie securing the cable to the bracket...

Hello, PetersRedYaris

Yes, mine's an automatic. I'll go check on the shifter cable after
I finish with the airbox matter.

It's fun working the bugs out of the Yaris, Vios in the Philippines.
It makes you love the car more.

Thanks.

Yeah my air filter box rattles in the morning when its cold. Or when i just washed the car. Gets annoying. Looks like my car is going to shake itself apart but them it smoothes out after driving awile.

I have not heard any unusual sounds or rattling from my yaris yet. The only thing rattling is my mirror due to my music is loud. Lol
