Hello, let me start off by saying I don't know anything about fixing cars :smile:, so I would appreciate any help. So my Yaris has started to sway slightly when hitting bumps in the road. Sometimes the steering feels like it slightly wanders to left or right. And another thing is only when reversing, there is a weird vibration sound. The mileage is 140,000 and I got it last year used.

Take a look at the suspension bolts first. Rear one is know to fail on some from internal corrosion.

Transmission automatic or manual?

Here is a link which deals with a rattle occurring on automatic equipped cars when reversing.
