wow a head gasket leak that doesn't get ANY worse over 12,000 miles? amazing

all the people running turbos and superchargers on stock gasket have no leaks? amazing

searching the forums that thousands of yaris owners have posted on, no yaris except ones you have touched have had a gasket leak? amazing

(oh TXyaris, my bad, I'm sure some random person just signed in to substantiate your claim, only to never be seen on the forum again.. rofl)

Somehow I think your claims would be slightly more believable if you weren't pimping the new hyundai on a yaris forum at the same time you're talking about these leaks.

By the way did they teach you to spray windex and jam q-tips in the gasket at mechanics school?


EDIT: did toyota switch to a new head gasket for the yaris?? Don't you think if all these cars on lots you are checking all have leaks, SOMEONE would have noticed this is an issue over the decade+ the engine has been around???

Never used Q-tips . Window cleaner cuts through engine oil , grime quite well . Try it , you may be amazed .

That works fine , didn't have any . Seen your video . So , what's the story ? Leak , no leak ?

Seems to be ok, not wet.
I check it about every 2 weeks or so...
I DO believe you though!
I think all who are following this thread should check their cars and report back.

Have given plenty of proof . Take it or leave it .

Was posted yesterday . Hopefully not a prank .

The new 2011 ELANTRA is good looking car , inside and out . Most likely we'll keep both YARIS .

Nope , hard to find , well hidden . Not all that noticeable .

Make all the accusations and wise cracks you want . Not goning to change a thing .

yeah well im new to Yarisworld and i really dont care if you think im Hershey.When I purchased my 09 yaris sedan the carfax said that the dealership had replaced the head gasket. Now i have no proof that it was because of an oil leak but I wouldn't doubt it with all the evidence... if you dont think so then thats nice... its not like he's fear mongering he's just trying to inform others. I appreciate it.
