I had the grinding issue for maybe my first week with the car.

Once I figured out where and when it likes to be shifted, I no longer have that problem.

the clutch swap shouldn't take more than a couple hours with a lift and tranny jack. i've dropped the clutch without dropping the subframe (but on an NCP61) it's almost easier to pull the whole engine and do the clutch on a bench, but that's my opinion of course.

I dont think it would be easier to drop the engine and trans but who knows. What is an ncp61 anyways? wow an extra 40 bucks for a trd clutch that dealer cut you a good deal.

Wow. Did you have to buy the clutch at the full price or did you get it for $40? That would be some deal!

They paid for the replacement of the OEM clutch; I paid an upcharge of $40 to add the TRD unit.

It's 4.4 on an Echo, so i'd imagine similar time on a Yaris.

(Directly from the Toyota Flat Rate Book)

finally got the correct input seal in and I removed the trans to find the input shaft seal is INSIDE the transmission. I had to completely disassemble the entire transmission to replace the seal the job took me 7 hours I'm just glad we had the 4 different pullers needed to remove fifth gear and pull the input shaft bearing out to replace the seal. everyone needs to take a peak under their car to make sure your not leaking gear lube as well.
on a side note the trans is very easy to pull and you do not need to remove the subframe.

Wow, sounds like a bad design that's not readily servicable for something as simple as a little seal. DIY hell!
I wonder if Toyota would tend to replace the whole tranny vs. keeping a tech down for 7 hours changing a seal.
Kinda glad I got the auto though I originally really wanted the stick.....

Is that warranty hours or labor hours? Makes a difference.

BTW, You got a digital copy of Toyo's flat-rate book? :P

Might come in handy!
