FROSTYBALLS 3,347 Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 If you look at the following Honest John review - especially the Good & Bad section - you will see the petrol models are pretty problem free: http://www.honestjohn.co.uk/carbycar/toyota/auris-2007/I've had two from new - a 2009 1.33 and the my current 2012 1.33. Only issue I had with the 2009 Auris was a broken cupholder, and with the 2012 Auris a failed tailgate strut - both replaced under warranty. The 1.33 has Stop/Start - just be aware of the operating parameters (which are outlined in the owners manual - as there are a number of factors where the system is designed not to operate.6th gear is a high gear and on motorways an incline often means a change down to 5th - not a problem, just something to be aware of.

ToyotaAuris 35 Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 No problems with 1.33 engine. I had one, very reliable. Start/stop doesent always work as it depends on Battery charge, exterior temperature, interior temperature and engine temperature. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
