I found another 2008 3 door with the same leak at a private dealer . The YARIS was originally a rental at a TOYOTA dealer . The car has 47,000 plus miles . The salesman let me look at the car and I then showed him the oil and oil residue that had gathered on the head cylinder gasket . We had the sedan and told him of the head gasket being replaced under warranty . I then showed him where and how to find the leak . Took him a few tries , but he finally got the oil and residue on his fingers . Said he would show and tell their mechanics of the oil leak and possibly get the H.C.G. replaced under the TOYOTA warranty . I'll be stopping by on occasion to see how they make out with it . Not all that far away .

You come up with some hard proof that all these cars at the dealer lots
got oil leaks that will be one thing, until then I think this is nothing but
stories your are posting, anyone else on here dont believe this .
