My 2003 Mk1 Yaris Story - Toyota Yaris Forums

Hi folks,

First post in the forum after plenty of lurking.

I bought my 2003 Mark 1 Yaris here in the UK back in March. It's a 1.3 auto model in silver. Totally standard.

It had 2 owners and a mere 34k miles when we bought it. Now on 47k after lots of commuting and a 5000 mile roadtrip around Norway and Sweden last summer!

It's been pretty much faultless until now. Still runs well, but has very squeaky front brakes. Any ideas on the cause? Lots of short journeys? New brakes needed?

Looking forward to being a member and adding to this thread as we have more Yaris adventures!

Ben.

Either brakes, although that's low miles, or perhaps dirt. Get them checked out to keep an expensive rotor repair bill at bay.
