Welcome! I love the red/white combo. Reminds me of an old forum user from back in the day. He had the same color combo and his wheels were a similar design. He was running a Blitz Supercharger, too. Some pics of a 2007 meet with his car in it here, if you're interested...

Howdy. Let me start off by saying this is not my car. My girlfriend needed an inexpensive vehicle after getting a job out of town. After some searching, we came across a 5 speed '07 Yaris w/180k kilometers for $2500. Price seemed too good to pass up, so we bought it. Naturally, the car is not without its flaws. They are as follows:

1) It's loud. There is an exhaust leak somewhere, possibly flex pipe

2) Clutch is starting to go. Car needs to be given some throttle before letting it out, otherwise it'll shutter and stall. This'll force the clutch to spin upon engagement, which probably isn't the best thing.

3) Dash is lit up like a Christmas tree. Currently seeing the ABS light and SRS light. Sometimes the battery light comes on and flashes, but it always holds its charge and the alternator is producing power just fine.

4) Left flasher doesn't work. You can turn the stalk to the right and it'll work, hazards also work fine on all corners, but we're getting nothing signaling left. Swapped the underdash relay, that was not the problem.

5) Body isn't perfect. To be fair, this is not the car's fault. My gf gets a new scuff or scratch every week. It doesn't bother her nearly as much as it bothers me, but I thought I'd mention it anyways.

So that's it really. Car is not a garage queen by any means, but I really would like to get it running right for her. Any help or guidance doing so will be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance, cheers.

Donut gasket between header and cat pipe is likely shot. I just replaced mine that's been leaking for the past 60k miles getting worse as time went and lemme tell you, that gasket was toast! It just fell apart.

I just went into AutoZone and told them what I needed they had 1 in stock lol. I'm boosting mine soonish so I went with a cheap no name header since my stock one wasn't looking too hot. As far as how loud the header makes the exhaust idk bc I have a full 2.5" stainless catback I had built. I noticed a slight increase in tone volume but not a lot when I added the header but my car is far from quiet. Here's a pic of what I got

Prob less than stock tbh 2.5 is too big for N/A and I'm not boosted yet

Welcome. I don't recall ever seeing a Yaris sedan in Berlin. I've seen plenty of hatchbacks though. Sedan must be a rarity.

Thanks Not my car but same model and colour except mine has more rust and dents! lol

[06YarisRS]

We recently picked up 'new to us' 2006 Yaris RS. Loving this little car. My wife had an Echo for years and loved it. I'm doing some work on it which includes some body work (no rust, just dings), headlight restoration, an exhaust manifold and fixing the hatch lock.

I look forward to learning from all of you. And, I'll try to upload some pics.
