I know I've heard of the occasional rust on some yaris's. Noticed on my 2/12 year old touring sport some rust in the hole that's in the boot that takes the tube for the rear washer. The dealer will do a paint assesment next week to see if it's had a repair before. But from the pictures he's seen he thinks it's had ? A paint repaint. Any ideas? The first picture is the Yaris (bought new, some rust at 14 months). The second pic is the auris TS,. Also the hinge area to see if that's normal. I'll update when the dealer has assessed.

If you join the owners forums you get 15% off accessories at Halfords. You could see what they have? Nothing beats an upgraded car speakers and an amplifier...

Good question. Any ICE shops around where you live? Years ago things were simpler took many a new car to upgrade with speakers and amps. Miss those days

I've never trusted Autoexpress for years. generally if it not a VW/Audi, then that's automatically 1-2 stars lower....prefer you tube for reviews nowadays.

Have a look at eBay, you'll find a wheel no problem,. You could have a proper wheel refurbisher give you a cost for a check. Circa £75 for a proper refurb.

Same engine in mine, can't fault it v smooth, enough power.

Maguire's do two levels of cutting polish. That should come out, even if you have to wet sand (read up wet sanding on detailing world). Otherwise a professional detailer body shop will buff it out

Might be winter fuel and the cold weather? I'm also a believer in archoil and BG 44k 244k fuel additive.

Cheers estate. Off to Lyon Towers tomorrow and I'll have another crack at it when I'm back...

We'll I've downloaded the zip file and unzipped it to a USB fat32 nothing updating yet after a minute might go back and have another go....

How long does an update take? And engine running like you said? I'm downloading the October update in maps and my Auris was a late 16 so ? A low version? I know it's touch 2 with go. Just unzipping the download now then I'll have to pick up the kids and do it after that.

On detailing world a lot of people find barkeepers friend great. The powder one that's in the Range. Otherwise if it's been treated with a screen sealant then a rayon pad and ceriglas is the option for those with a da polisher...

If you search for Yaris on YouTube, you'll see that model, seems to be an Indian model. I'm not sure when a fresh Yaris will arrive?

Does the protection pack include mudflaps? Seat covers and a trip to Halfords with a Toyota owners card.

Yeah hate a hairy Yaris...
