OK just picked up this 09 5 door tonight, I drove it a few times in the last 3 days along with the scion Xd. I decided the Yaris was the better deal for the wife as a small commuter.I decided the old Chrysler T&C had given her enough headache's. Also there was no 1000K rebate on the scion and it was almost 2K more. for what a 1.8 instead of the 1.5?, this 1.5 seems to be just fine by the way. Besides they don't budge at all on the scion sticker. This thing has all the options I guess they could stick on, I didn't need most, but so be it, It has, FE,CP,CL,KE,PQ,CF, and this DK, some useless owners portfolio. I ended up after a day's worth of back and forth at 14,588. +tax, lic and processing. Processing fee was $459.00, tax was 481.41 , some lic fee 39.50, title fee 10.00, and some silly 10.00 called "online systems filing fee"?. So after all that it came to: $15,587.91 out the door. (incl the 1000 rebate) I only managed to get them to throw in the cruse and the floor mats, as the sticker said 16,345.000 they went to $15,988.00, than took the 1000K rebate off, to 14,988, at that time I said i don't need cruse and not gona pay 150.00 for mats, they took 250 off for the cruse and 150 for the mats to end up at the $14,588 ( I gave em 3K and still owe 12,587.91 to pay off next week. I guess I made about as good a deal as anyone else here in southern VA at Priority Toyota. So now I have this and a 05 Corolla LE. |

Question: Doesn't this thing have a auto dome light that comes on when you open the doors? I have 2 lights on the upper part of the front dome, but they seem to only be able to turn on manual by pushing them. I can see no way to make a light turn on when you open the door. There's no switch on the lights either, they only turn on by pushing them. This is weird, every car I ever seen has a dome light that turns on when you open the door.

Replying to: bamacar (Dec 31, 2008 7:47 pm) hmmmm well I don't see any "setting" on the 2 dome lights. Its just the 2 lights that you can press to turn on. This is crazy, every car even my old VW beetle had lights that turn on when you open the door.

Replying to: hoody (Jan 01, 2009 5:53 am) Have you checked the switch that controls dash illumination? On many cars it also controls the dome light on/off.

Replying to: backy (Jan 01, 2009 5:57 am) shows a switch to use to set it to door, but there's NO switch on my dome lights. As for the dash illum, it ONLY controls the speedo intensity light. No sweat, I'm gona go to the dealer Monday and raise hell with them about it.

Replying to: hoody (Jan 01, 2009 12:16 pm) is the dome light on an '08 Yaris with a little switch on it. This is different and completely separate from the two reader lights up by the rear-view mirror (the ones you push in). Yours is different? Weird...

Replying to: dake (Jan 01, 2009 3:52 pm) smirks the picture was some help. However the problem was kinda my own fault, rof, I guess I wasn't able to bend my head back far enough with the head rest to even notice that "OTHER" light with that switch hahaha, man I feel kinda silly, but better than having gone to the dealer and finding out lol Now all is well with this little run about, I like it even though I bought it for the wife to use around local driving. I like it more than my 05 corolla LE lol even with the smaller 1.5. It handles fine and has all the pickup it needs. I also got what I think was a pretty good deal This is the end of this light deal , smirks.......... |

I have a 2008 Toyota Yaris 5 door automatic. What i have experienced is the gear shifting take little while of drive after 60 when you start driving cold car (no matter summer winter if you start car and run engine couple of minutes) So after the speed reaches above 60 and goes all the way upto 80-85 i feel like it needs gear and is not shifting however after few minutes of drive it starts shifting gear at 60. Any one encountered this issue or if this is an issue really. I spoke to one guy at toyota dealership he sent me back saying the car runs on O/D for sometime.
