Sry but i think claims like these shows why some members feel the forum has gone downhill the last little while

This was the original belt. I used an aftermarket as a replacement in a pinch, all dealerships are closed on Sundays up where I broke down. My spare belt in the back is an actual Toyota OE belt (I learned my lesson, ALWAYS carry a spare! )

You know what, my BFWB (best friend with boobs ) has a yaris, but other than people constantly doing hit-and-runs on her car , hers has been mechanically perfect.

So perhaps I should change that title.

What's up with your Yaris?

If you are going to label a car as "sucks" just because it has a minor inconvenient mechanical malfunction let me know when you find a car that never has a mechanical problem.i want one eh!

Mechanically, my Sunfire was perfect for the three-ish years I drove it. I killed an ABS sensor, but that was my own fault for using a super-pressure-washer on my alloy rims.

I should add, I've had other major failures on this car. If you go to True Delta auto reliability surveys, you'll notice my Yaris consists of about 90% of the mechanical issues.

OK maybe you just got a bad Yaris and your particular Yaris does indeed suck,however dont paint all Yaris with the same brush as the majority are long lived reliable and economical little commuters..
If your car is as unreliable as you claim i'd trade it for something else.

Do you know that there are Yaris's with over 400,000 miles with virtually no repairs? The Yaris is the most reliable car ever made.

This.

[paperboy]

the yaris is so simple under the hood that even a mook like me can maintain one without spending a penny on service at the shop

that alone is golden

Not to bring up an old thread, but my Yaris now has 120,000 miles and still has the original serpentine belt. No, I have not adjusted it every oil change. Reading this thread is the first I have heard of this.
Yes, it could go anytime, but I spray it with dressing every oil change. Perhaps that has helped. I have never changed a serpentine on this car, but it looks like a bitch. The sideways engine is practically against the fender well.
