goodness if that is the case I wouldn't even buy one. If you aren't a do it yourself kind of person that will add up fast. just sounds plain odd.

ive seen no indication from 3rd gen owners that there are any issues with premature brake wear and there are plenty on here with 100,000km (60,000 miles) and more.

don't know if that is a regional issue or simply a bunch of B.S.

I find it a bit incredulous that Toyota would be producing a car where there was a factory recommendation to change brakes every 18,000 miles.

Maybe its do to area Yaris is known for inside pad wear , uneven ....the once with problems I find are owned by older ppl that drive slow and are easy on the brakes also winters can shorten ur brakes .

Hi all
Ok, good I hope that brakes will be changed after 100 000 km. this makes me happy.and this s what I m looking less expenses on my car .But what I said had been told by a mToyota agent here in Algeria .by the way me too , the first time i heard about the subject it sound weird and I had regrets buying an expensive car .I could buy Peugeot 208 hdi,or Polo Vw
May be because car is under warranty Toyota policy here want owners change spare parts frequenrly .or in other words ,maintenance schedule is narrowed so that earning more money .For example, I change oilin Toyota and filter every 5000 km although the oil used is for 10000 km .when you ask them they will tell you to keep the engine in a good shape or the weather here is always hot and oil lose its efficiency.

so it sounds like a dealer/saleperson just spewing BS to sell some items unnecessarily.

[momaterials]

Yes unnecessarily pretending that they care about you and the safety of your car .or may be Toyota here sell low cost brakes and they say so , i don't know , i have to investigate on it

How some small car aficionados would feel re the VW Polo in the U.S. =

Will the VW Polo become available in the U.S. ? = No

if it was one would be in my garage....and I would have never looked at the fiat 500. I would also be interested in the VW UP.

I just have an affinity for vw small cars.....problems and all. they just don't sell any here.. the golf and beetle don't seem small to me anymore.

I like both the Polo and the UP as well.

Yep. I've owned (in the past) a new Scirocco, and also a new GTI. I totaled the Scirocco with only 7k miles on it . The GTI I squeezed almost 195k out of....but not without many issues. If I ever bought another VW, I'd think twice before keeping it more than half that many miles....but those miles would probably be a lot of fun .

Corado would be nice if they resurrected that too!

The polo is popular here in Algeria better than the yaris .very beautiful and neat .We have 1.4 85 hp petrol version .sometimes I feel I did mistake purchasing a yaris .
but I chose the yaris because it has 99 horse power ,ie more power .Furthermore Yaris is more reliable car and better fuel economy

Plus, the cost of maintenance and repairs on the Yaris is so much cheaper than a VW.

Wow....Yaris has more power, but better fuel economy!

[momaterials]

the yaris I have has 99 horse power at 6000 rpm.it an 1.3 petrol consume about 5.5 liter per 100 km.

Before purchasing my Yaris, I actually considered a VW Golf. However, the Golf was about $6,000 more and was less fuel-efficient. Plus, having a 2000 VW Jetta previously with some reliability issues gave VW products less consideration for me. I would actually like to test drive a VW Polo sometime just for fun.

Diesel version of the polo is good option , TDI engine is a good one.There is a new petrol engine TSI ,
