I had this done last year. I had that knocking sensation for a few weeks and they swapped bolts no problem. It happens.

im from the chicago land area and we get lots of salt
i bought a small tub of axle grease and greased all of the hardware and lines /fittings /threads/cotter pins and ABS sensors with a small brush i also bought a 1 gallon chemical sprayer and a gallon of crisco veg shortening heated it up in some boiling watter and sprayed every inch of the underside of the car and the bottom foot of the doors (except the hatch) il use babby oil or wd40 on that im also going to respray/grease the car this fall but with non hyd vegie oil like i did my 02 saturn i love seeing all the rusted out early to mid 2000 fullsize trucks (i guesse thay catch my eye first in northern MI)and knowing that an 8$ sprayer and a gallon of vegy oil every fall mabey a can of red spray grease would have saved the wheel arches and rocker panels from rusting |

So it's safe to take these bolts out (one at a time) and eyeball the shafts? I don't think you can tell much just from looking at the heads.
At 125000km, my wife's 07 is long out of warranty. |

55k miles on my hatch. Replaced both sides. Rusty on the drivers-side. Pics attached of driver-side old vs new, and passenger-side old vs new.

I keep meaning to replace mine on all three of my Yaris, but keep forgetting to order them when I order other parts.

Anyone have the part numbers? What's the torque spec on them?

Two. I spray-painted the underside of the head and washer in hopes that'll slow down the rust. My guess is the bushing traps water between the crossmember and washer causing the bolt to rust through. I changed mine without lifting the car. Very easy to do

Ramps ?

I pulled mine out about a year ago and they looked fine. I coated them in high temp bearing grease and reinstalled them. I figure that couldn't hurt. Next time I do an oil change I might take another look at 'em to see how they've done bathed in grease.

Gee, I'd been wondering whether or not to replace my 2008 Yaris hatch, VIN JTDJT923, etc.; this must be a sign...................... I don't see how to get a FREE carfax report on my vehicle; they want $39 for one? I'll just check my car's paperwork to see if it's ok.

No ramps for me, car is stock height. auxmike has some pretty good pics at the beginning of this thread showing the bolts
