4 factory tires (wore out at 60,000km)
2 front brake pads (down quite a bit)
2 front brake rotors (original started to score)
Wiper blades 2x both sides
Speed sensors both side (due to corrosion)

Right now:
Factory battery - DEAD

Next up:
2 rear brake shoes (getting low)
Transmission oil replacement (required)
Coolant replacement (required)
2 front wheel bearings (for good cause)
2 front axles (appears bent)
1 right front outer tie rod (leaking grease)
1 right sway bar link (left one replaced @ $200 rip)
2 front struts / 2 rear

^ u my friend got a lemon of a yarii.....how many km on ur car? what have u done to it? all extra work i have needed done to my yaris is cuz somehow i messed up and got it covered under warranty

and to OP thats great, i dont know how u did it..... it was raining today and i was noticing that i will prob have to replace my wipers within the next 6 months. my car was a year old as of jan 6th and i now have about 45,000km

better then my moms 01 camry, she eats wipers every 8 months or less. think it has to do with it being still the original windsheild and the surface is getting rough.

At 70K Kms mine are 50% all around..probably get the whole job done at 100K

Wife needed new pads at 66k miles. You definately want to look at them once a year after 50k or so. Personally my brake pads (front) go 100k +.
I let the wifes get to 1/32 inch which was cool and got another year out of them.
