Sump Guard / Splash Guard retention
Hi All,
I had the last remaining clips holding the guard under the engine to the front bumper fall out while travelling at 100 km/h. The Yaris was due for a service soon, so I used cable ties to reattach it until I went to the dealer's. The service rep from the dealer (yes, actual Toyota dealer) said this is a known problem with the Yaris - the retaining clips are flimsy and it only takes a light scrape on a driveway or similar to make them fall out. He then went on to say they replace any missing clips with CABLE TIES as these are more secure, and avoid any more problems...
