I took my 09 Yaris 5 dr LB in for its 40000 km physical with a few squawks..

rattle in left front of engine bay when started and backing after cold soaked and bearing noise for a few minutes after starting cold.

ended up getting a new engine mount! and a new water pump!

I thought I bought a Toyota not a __________ (fill in the blank with eastern European crap can name plate rhymes with soda).

I have heard of a few water pump failures but an engine mount! Is that a common problem?

We know how you feel . 2 YARIS bought new that have ( 2010 3 door ) / had ('08 sedan ) an oil leak from the #1 cylinder of the head cylinder gasket . A friend has 2010 3 door that was bought new with the same oil leak . Not all that impressed with TOYOTA quality these days . Otherwise we like the cars for the gas mileage , ride , roominess , etc.. A shame . :frown:
