What items in the 90K Maintenance Check can be DIY?

Have that reputable repair facility check the lower control arms as well: http://www.yarisworld.com/forums/sho...light=lca+bolt

Everything you have listed you can check yourself(you'll need to get the car on ramps/ stands or if you're small enough slide under), especially if you are capable of changing the accessory belt. Manual or auto? Are you looking for how to's on checking these parts or more recommendations or what specifically?

Thanks LT. I am just looking for what I can do myself and how to do it, so links to Youtube videos or online pictures for the items listed abpve would be helpful. I do not know how to do the items listed above, but those items are recommended by Toyota at 90K miles.

I had a look at the post on the lower control arms. I do not live in an area where they use salt, so I am less concerned. But is does sound like a potentially serious problem.

Thanks,

R.
