Checking in as requested

I never know what to say on a thread like this. I usually just jump into a topic thread relevant to whatever I am trying to learn at the moment.

Let's see, with me, there are probably five females on here?
(LOL = little old lady)

So many slick looking mods. I will be happy just to keep my Little Blue Car running sweet and looking clean.

Gen 2 / Gen 3 motor swap compatibility

Hi my daughter has a 2007 3dr hatchback with close to 200k the motor finally wore out ! It has the 1.5 w/automatic tranny front wheel drive.
My question is " I have found a 2016 yaris sedan 4dr that is wrecked on front drivers headlight,fender control arm, same motor same tranny are there any known technical difficulties when swapping a gen 3 motor n tranny into a gen 2 chassis ???? From what I can see so far looks pretty basic ! If anyone has done similar please advseme what to lookout for when doing this I.e. .... Harnes changes, different mount location/measurements accessorie location/placments, tranny/motor lineup ? Etc.. This would be very helpful to know and greatly appreciated so I can get this swap done efficiently.
Thanks in advance for any advice y'all might have for this novice mechanic.
P.s. not my first motor/tranny exchange but is my first front wheel drive !!!

The engine is not the same. The 2016 sedan is a rebadged Mazda 2, totally different vehicle. The last true Yaris sedan was 2012.

What do you mean by the motor finally wore out? 200k is pretty low for a 1nz.

Short answer to your question is no, not the same car. I don't know of anyone that's swapped the mazda engine into the toyota chassis.

Hi all, new on here so thought it’d be rude not to introduce myself... :) I live in Ireland and I’ve had my ‘03 Yaris for over two years now, it’s worked more or less faultlessly so far.

Bought it as a run about to do the school run and suchlike, but I’ve come to really like its dependability and the 1-litre VVTi engine is surprisingly nippy I must say. In fact it has really won me over so planning on upgrading to a newer second gen model perhaps next year, a bit dependent on house purchase and such fun stuff.... Ideally I’ll be looking for a model with the 1.33 litre 74kW 1NR-FE engine and six speed manual gearbox, preferably the 3 door model. I think this engine was introduced in Europe in late 2008/early 2009.

Btw, is there an easy way to distinguish visually between the 1NR-FE engine and the two older 1.3 engines?

Hi all forum members!

I have 2 units of Yaris in my house.

2010 Yaris J M/T Black
2012 Yaris E A/T Black

However, I hate the manual one because the clutch is so tricky to use. My advice is, do not buy any Toyota with a 1NZ-FE 1.5L engine equipped with M/T gearbox.

Greetings! Welcome to the forum!

I too have a second gen manual, and I will agree the car is tricky to drive if you are not used to it, but I would say it is due to the drive-by-wire throttle as opposed to anything wrong with the gearbox or clutch. With that said, once you get used to it, I think the manual is much more fun to drive because of the lack of power from the engine. You can get more out of the car by being able to control the gear selection.

Regardless I love the Yaris. These cars are great value!

I loved my 2015 SE Yaris hatchback with the 1NZ-FE 1.5L engine & 5-spd manual transmission (& now wish that I would have kept it instead of trading it in late 2019) - though Toyota did redesign/refine the clutch system with the 2015+ refresh. I have heard/read that the clutch in Yaris models before those was pretty dismal.
