Yaris idles loudly at red lights and when making sharp turn - Page 2 - Toyota Yaris Forums

mike_d · 02-17-2009, 07:31 PM

I also get some kind of vibrating when sitting at a stop light with my foot on the brake. If i have it in park then i don't hear it at all. It sounds like something is rattling or loose in the engine area.

Do you guys have lightened or underdrive crank pulleys?
Does the noise stop when you depress the clutch (in case your car is equipped with a manual transmission)?

Mine is all stock and an automatic.

As for sharp turn i haven't noticed yet, it's hard to hear.

hopefully this could be the faulty EGR recall thing.

But, our yarises have "loud engines" and poor soundproofing so we hear alot of noise from engine bay.

I was worried for my young engine, but alot of people here have the same noise.........

My Engine is quiet - ONCE I PUT GOOD OIL AND FILTER IN IT (MOTUL/WIX) Cant even hear it run. You run american oils in an Asian engine, you'll get a pile of stinking junk in a few thousand miles.

Profoundly UNTRUE. You keep spreading outright lies.

There are MILLIONS of Japanese cars running American oil with NO PROBLEMS, NO BREAKDOWNS, NO WORRIES.

You say "...you'll get a pile of stinking junk in a few thousand miles...". What outright lies, and deception. Other posters, be worry of this guy!

He used to use the handle "grumpyfromNH". He's relabeled himself. Same guy, same TIRED old rant....
Until I bought my Yaris and learned a LOT here about oil filters, I ALWAYS used orange Fram brand filters. Guess what? Never lost an engine. ALSO, I would buy the cheap PepBoys Pro Line oil!
Go figure...

Busted!

Mine does the same thing when I'm stopped after the motor is warmed up. The idle drops really low and it kind of shudders. I have heard the ECU makes that motor do that intentionally for fueal economy reasons.

Well if you blew over 6 engines in ten years using the "best" american oils and OEM filter how would U feel about the subject. No american major brands labeled synthetic are synthetic. Period. My wifes previously wonderful rav 4 is DEAD in 3 years with only 67K miles using TOYOTA THAI denso filters and genuine toyota oil and Mobil 5000. F this. IDK if you blow you motor. Go ahead. No skin off MY teeth (= <

You must be either doing a poor job of caring for your family cars, or just having REAL bad luck!

6 motors in ten years? Whew....
You're the first person I know who's killed ANY Toyota vehicle in three years flat.
Hope you have better luck in the future , sir.

Does anyones idle go down a little bit then come back up when they turn on things like the rear defrost, turn the blower on, etc?

Geez Silky - clearly this is the driver and not the engine or oil. I have NEVER blown an engine in 26 years of driving.

You can blame the Toyota service center and their Genuine parts – that’s what was used on my wife’s Rav-4. So i guess the Toyota Dealer does a poor job maintaining my cars in my area ... OR its the downrated US API/ILSACGF4 oil that Porsche, Audi, BMW, VW do not allow anywhere near their vehicles ...

I saved my Yaris from the brink with Motul 8100 and WIX

TheSilkySmooth · 02-21-2009, 06:27 PM

The cars are parked outside and get many a 10 deg F cold start in the Winter. Sometimes -15 F. That can't help.

Grampy, you blew that many motors? This says more about YOU then the oil.

There are MILLIONS that have not blown so many oils, and they use the "cheap" American brands too.

I would suggest pouring the oil into the valve cover and not the exhaust pipe. It don't get into the engine from the exhaust pipe, I promise!
