Tapping engine while in drive or reverse, at idle only? - Toyota Yaris Forums

Well all I can say for myself is I guess it's better to be safe than sorry. haha

Just as you all had suspected and told me, in regards to the tapping... I was just being paranoid, the tech said it sounds perfectly normal. Basically he said it was the fuel injectors and the VVTi kicking in when load is put on the car. or something like that.

The squeal was from the serpentine belt being cracked - it's getting replaced as we speak along with a recalled part. (glad I took it in)

Anyways thanks to everyone that posted. The knowledge in this forum is AWESOME!
