If however you said you were travelling at a speed and the engine stalled, then I would agree it is a safety issue. This will be something that you could not have controlled. |

Since it appears by the many posts here, it's not the normal.. Plus, we take driving very seriously; cannot afford one possible stall - due to low RPM's etc... Toyota will have a Technical Bulletin (Recall) soon that many of us will gladly welcome; especially after they have a few liability suits. |

A few suggestions:
1. Get a louder exhaust (it really helps when you can "hear" the engine) 2. Get a tach (even a dash mounted Scanguage will help see the RPM's you're launching at) 3. Double check the clutch fluid level and bleed if necessary Idle can easily be changed by any Toyota dealer using the scan tool. I did notice the idle on the Yaris is not so stable (jumps around from 550-660RPM at idle with out A/C)... but this doesn't cause the stalling you describe. If all else fails, I'll buy it off you for cheap |

probably one of the first upgrades to my yaris will be an exhaust so i can hear the engine for rev matching. when i test drove the yaris yesterday i had no problems with shifting. the only problem was i could not hear the engine! no biggie though, it still shifted and ran perfectly. whoever has problems with shifting the gears on this car obviously needs to learn how to drive a stick. |

FYI, it is barely possible for the engine to move by just lifting the clutch. You do have to rev it a bit ... then again, what's to stop you giving it a clutch dump and leave a long black line on the road?? Again, it is the driver and I have not heard of any issue even with the 2NZFE motor except that it lacks a bit of torque and a bit of brain adjustment is required (driver came out of a 2AZFE powered RAV4). I think you are so quick to point the finger and spit out the word recall, and lawsuits in America. No one else here seem to have your problem. Why is it a lawsuit? Why is it a recall? Why is it never the organic bit that is the fault? Plenty obvious on this forum and from what I hear from the national service guys here. If only some poor soul could give perhaps you and your wife a recall for a brain reprogram. If you hadn't noticed, press the accelerator FIRST, then lift up the clutch, then you will be able to move. Not the other way around. I suggest you sell the car before you hurt yourself. Most likely don't deserve to drive a Toyota. Go bother some other company. Maybe some silly large FWD V8 (do they even make that in America??!!??) is what you need. Fuel is cheap again. |

SmellyTofu, easily the worst post ever. Go find the nearest ceiling fan and bring some rope, then call me for further instructions.
