I almost wonder if there should be a sticky for this one particular item (both here and in the Yaris thread) since it's an exceptionally common question but the answers get lost in the general maintenance thread.
 
It could be titled: "Echo/Yaris Instrument Lights - blue/green Temperature light/Automatic doesn't up-shift" or something to that effect followed by the basic explanation:
 
It's completely normal. The light stays lit until the engine is at it's appropriate temperature at which time it will allow the automatic transmission to upshift.
 
Hey Mods... what do you think?

We don't actually have the traditional form of stickys here. On the other hand, we do have outstanding search features that can be accessed from many levels. That's the way people can find the things that have been previously discussed.

I think that most dealer's are out of the 2009 Yarii. We have three Toyota dealer's in Memphis, one dealer has one left in stock, the others have none. The 2010's should be out soon. They will have upgraded standard safety features. Probably worth waiting for. You can find quite a few used Yarii on Ebay and even a few on the dealer's lots.

How many miles on it? Have you tried double clutching? The books says for wont go into gear:
 
1) shift cable faulty
2) synchronizer ring worn
3)shift key spring dammaged
 
I looked at the pictures and there are two synchro rings on the output shaft and two on the input shaft.

I'm $500 poorer this evening - got the Michelin Harmonys put on today, and had an alignment done and an oil change since it was there and it was about time.
 
Right off I notice it is a softer tire (the Harmony is S-rated as the original tires were; the Toyos I had before were T-rated) but that's not a bad thing. Echo is no race car to begin with.
 
There is less impact harshness over bad pavement than I ever had with the Toyos. And supposedly this is an 80K-mile tire, which means if they perform to expectations, these may well be the last tires I ever buy for this car.
 
Now I'm crossing my fingers that I will also get better wet traction when the rain starts in a month or so......

What ever you do, do not put in another Toyota radio there is a big problem with them , just go to a stero shop in your area and they can recommend something that will fit, my personal preference is JVC
