I was going to say that based on how the OEM clutch feels you'll want to scrap it and get a new one in the near future...then I realized you're in a '15 Yaris, upgraded clutch. The OEM clutches tend to last a loooong time if you treat them well.

In regards to the OP, if it ends up being just the solenoid (it likely is as the mechanical parts are bomb proof on the Yaris) then just swap that out for a new one even if you're selling at the end of the year. You'll get pennies for a car that is sold "as is" ie: doesn't run versus one that can go on a test drive flawlessly.

I don't know about where you live but down here in TO. small eco cars are in decent demand due to young/student drivers needing a cheap reliable car so they tend to re sell relatively fast.
