New Yaris SE on Saturday - Page 4 - Toyota Yaris Forums

That's a little absurd. I generally change the oil and rotate tires in my Yaris every 7000mi with full synthetic and a good quality filter. Crappy filters can be a good reason to change oil every 5000mi.

When I had a 2006 Corolla, I got the Mobil 1 full syn tested by Blackstone labs at the 6500mi mark. They reported that the oil probably had another 4-5k miles left.

And the dealer in Chilliwack (Toyota Canada) says I should change the oil and filter every 8,000 Km/6 months regardless of what Toyota USA says or whether I use synthetic or mineral oil in order to keep my warranty valid. Both my Toyotas (2007 Camry Hybrid and 2007 Yaris) are now out of warranty.

BTW, Cargurus.com no longer allows searches over 500 miles away....have to enter a zip code and 500 miles is the 'widest' choice. Cars.com still has the 'any miles' option, which does a nationwide search. There are currently 6 new manual transmission 2015 SEs in the United States....one black, one grey, one red, one your color blue (in various states), plus two white ones in the Bay Area (San Francisco).
