As for sharp turn i haven't noticed yet, it's hard to hear.

hopefully this could be the faulty EGR recall thing.

But, our yarises have "loud engines" and poor soundproofing so we hear alot of noise from engine bay.

I was worried for my young engine, but alot of people here have the same noise.........
My Engine is quiet - ONCE I PUT GOOD OIL AND FILTER IN IT (MOTUL/WIX) Cant even hear it run. You run american oils in an Asian engine, you'll get a pile of stinking junk in a few thousand miles.

Profoundly UNTRUE. You keep spreading outright lies.

There are MILLIONS of Japanese cars running American oil with NO PROBLEMS, NO BREAKDOWNS, NO WORRIES.

You say "...you'll get a pile of stinking junk in a few thousand miles...". What outright lies, and deception. Other posters, be worry of this guy!

He used to use the handle "grumpyfromNH". He's relabeled himself. Same guy, same TIRED old rant....
Until I bought my Yaris and learned a LOT here about oil filters, I ALWAYS used orange Fram brand filters. Guess what? Never lost an engine. ALSO, I would buy the cheap PepBoys Pro Line oil!
Go figure...
Welcome back , Grumpy
