Rattle - Noise when Yaris put in Reverse - Toyota Yaris Forums

Jungle Rot · 11-02-2009, 06:38 PM

I have an 2009 Sedan. 8000 miles, Automatic.

When I move the shift from park to reverse it sounds normal. But when I move from drive, into neutral, then into reverse. There is a loud noise/vibration. It sounds like the engine is loose - or the motormounts and something is grinding/thumping. Hard to describe but you know when something is not right.

My wife took it to the dealer and the head guy told her it was normal. She asked to try another Yaris on the lot which they did and it did NOT make the same noise. The the guy said well its still normal. Needless to say is that I will take the car in myself to battle with the dealer.

Has anybody else had a problem with the reverse gear in the Yaris.
