2007 LB Auto-Trans NOISE in Reverse - Toyota Yaris Forums

Pavel Olavich · 03-21-2007, 01:09 PM

When I put the AT in reverse, but before the car moves backward, it makes a high pitched noise, not very loud, but not quiet either. When I remove my foot from the brake, the noise is less, but it is still there. I checked the tranny fluid and it is fine, so what's going on?

Does anyone else hear this noise too? Is my car faulty?

It seems that this happens to my Yaris only in the orming, on a cold start...otherwise if the engine is warm/hot no noise...strange!

The only noise I get with my liftback in reverse is a rattle, seems to be coming from the exhaust possibly cattalitic converter.
