You're basically good. Might want to check/replace cabin air filter located behind the glove box.
Here is a link to the 'recommended' maintenance schedule I got with mine. Keep in mind that mileage intervals are in kms, so you'll have to convert to miles http://www.yarisworld.com/forums/sho...01&postcount=2

oh cabin air filter, i forgot, got some made from a regular house filter. i changed at least 4-5 times.....
engine air filter replaced twice. and oil almost never changes color (during 3-4 months/change).... Last edited by pandus13; 12-02-2013 at 04:33 PM. Reason: brain fart |

that's crazy amount of oil change for such little mileage.

regarding the # of oil changes:
at first it was a city short tripper.(2008-2011) so not really much time to get up to parameters than i changed the interval to every 6 months.got also a little bit longer drive so oil gets hot.... oil used regular or semi-synthetic. used only dealer only changes/filters than DIY with Toyota original oil filter bought from dealer (receipt kept just in case...) |

eitherway... i think oil change at 3-4 months is overkill.
coolant change is 8 years 100k miles if i remember right. check your tires for cracks, if you see cracks, then it's time to change your tires, even if they still have deep threads. http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tirete....jsp?techid=30 |
