^ from my experience I've learned that 90% of what dealers say is complete BS!

Bump for this thread as mine started to do the squeak (I guess mine is a late bloomer since I'm over 60k miles and 4 years, lol).

Toyota guy after I tooked the yaris in for the squeaky sound: "the squeaky sound is normal" ... This make me think about how much dedication the Toyota dealerships put on selecting their mechanics, I've had some really heated conversations with the service department because of things like theses

I dare the next person in to their dealer to ask the Service advisor if they've ever actually worked on one of these cars! HAHAHA

It works!
Had noticed that squeak while lining up at a drive-thru. Lubed the mentioned part (earlier in this thread) with white grease, and the noise is gone! Thanks for that thread guys!

Finally decided to get the squeak checked out. My first mistake was going to the dealer first instead of checking this forum. They determined the noise was coming from the clutch pivot and clutch fork. They also want to charge me $1380 to drop the transmission to "fix" it in addition to some bearing that's inside the transmission. :P I think the mechanic at the dealer lubed it though, because the squeak is gone and it's shifting really nice now. Who knew such an easy fix existed? I've been living with the squeak I think since the first year and I bought in April 2006! It was intermittent at first and lately just became too often to ignore. I think I will wait and see how it goes.

Folks, I took mine to the dealership and they replaced the ENTIRE shifter bushing set. It was ceased. You can try lubricating, but the squeak will come back...the mechanic couldn't believe the state it was in...

OK so I signed up to see the photo of where to lubricate but I know absolutely ZERO about cars, can you point me to where under the hood this is located? You can reference obvious things like battery, oil dipstick, etc. but back/front, left/right would be helpful. Thanks!
