I changed the fluid in a 1995 Saturn once, they used a spin on oil filter! There was even a doughnut shaped magnet on the tranny to catch metal debris.
BTW, in the Saturn owner's manual it tells you HOW to do the procedure yourself.
No mention of flushing out the trannny either.
Also, I've heard that the dirt build up in an older tranny may actually seal up leaks and flushing the tranny could actually create leaks.
Is there even a changable filter in the Yaris A/T?

Apparently so. A quick check showed PNs from Fram & Wix
