My Yaris just turned 400,000 miles in 3yrs 6mths.

400,000 miles and I'm still running on the original brakes, clutch & fluids, except oil. My Yaris still runs as good as the first day I got it. I love her so much that I divorced my wife and married my Yaris.....lol.....j/k!

As a new owner that is great to hear. yaris prime, what exactly is going on in your signature pic? It's too small for my bad eyes, but looks interesting with that "pull start" comment.

Nope, the only fluid I have flushed or changed, is the engine oil. I top up the coolant every couple months. Still running on the original MTF too.

trini_per4mance,

I was just inquiring about you here the other day-I figured you had to be getting close to 400k. That's awesome.

Did you notice any difference after the fuel injector cleaner?

Thanks for the update!

Thanks. Still worried he has not had his brake fluid level checked and or bled in over 400,00mi.
