I looked at the TSB on NapaFix, 5w-20 is listed for Toyota and Scion, 0w-20 is listed for the 2AZ-FE engine, not the Yaris 1NZ-FE engine...their *note* at the start of the article seems kind of confusing though:

Quote: "The recommended viscosity grade for this oil differs according to vehicle model. Use the recommended grade specified on the oil filler cap or in the Repair Manual or Owner’s Manual for each vehicle."
