Just got my Yaris! *and a few q's*
Hey all
Just joined last week, and today picked up my brand new (second hand) 2007 Yaris YR 5 Door hatch. I love it, it's great. Something I've noticed though, my speedo and my GPS don't match up, the speedo is five k's below what my GPS speedo says. Besides that, had no issues. Just now gotta see if I can get a cruise control installed, hopefully with controls on the steering wheel. Anyone done any long (eg Melbourne to Mildura/Wodonga etc) trips? How does the car go on e10 fuel? Anything I should watch out for/issues with the Yaris? It's my first decent car, so hope to get many years of happy motoring out if it. Look foward to some help with my q's bove :) Thanks Treadders |

For the speedometer, actually pretty much everyone has the same issue... I suppose it's a safety "feature", you think you're going the speed limit but you're really just a little under, who knows...
gas here is pretty much all e15, and no issues at all in over 3 years of using RON91 gasohol, the engine's more or less designed to handle it
