Replying to: dake (Apr 21, 2008 9:13 am) Took it in - one of the sensors was apparently bad, so they slapped a new one on. Good as new.

Replying to: dake (Apr 20, 2008 9:50 am) Got this info from another forum:   Yarisworld.com forum   I took my car to the dealership and watched them reset it.   1. With the odometer on trip A and the ignition off, press and hold the reset button. 2. Turn the ignition on (no need to start the car) and wait for it to start blinking. It will count down and when it's done, it'll be reset.   Also, finally found on page 243 of the 2008 owners manual.

It's searchable, though. Here's the link:   Toyotaownersonline.com Registration   You can also order it through your dealer with the following publication numbers (but it's not free)                                           Publication                       Description                     Pub #                     Price                                                                                                                                                                                               Repair Manual                     VOL. 1                     RM07Q0U1                       $121.38                                                             Repair Manual                     VOL. 2                     RM07Q0U2                     $128.97                                                               Repair Manual                     VOL. 3                     RM07Q0U3                     $144.14                                                               Owners Manual Mexico Sdn                     NCP93                     OM52788S                     $15.95                                                               Owners Manual Mexico H/B                     NCP91                     OM52838S                     $15.95                                                             Owners Manual Sdn                       NCP93                     OM52787U                     $15.95                                                             Owners Manual H/B                     NCP91                       OM52730U                     $15.95                                                             Electrical Wiring Diagram                     "NCP91,93 "                     EM07Q0U                       $66.21                                                             Collision Repair Manual                     "NCP91,93 "                     BM00R2U                     $16.45
#11 of 17 15/14 inch wheels by lewjac3 Oct 02, 2008 (4:58 pm)
It seems logical that 15 inch wheels would keep the rpm's lower than 14 inch wheel's, that said can I assume that 15 inch wheel's would produce better mpg, than the 14 inch wheel's? Replies to this message: bamacar (Oct 02, 2008 5:52 pm) qschubmehl (Apr 08, 2009 2:55 pm)

Replying to: lewjac3 (Oct 02, 2008 4:58 pm) The only problem is the wheels never touch the road - you drive on the tires. The overall height of the tires is all that matters. Yes if the overall height is greater you will have lower rpms for the tires. A high profile 14" tire can easily have a greater overall height than a low profile 15" tire.   MPG is really dependent on distance divided by fuel use. If you have a greater tire height, it may appear when you divide the mileage by the fuel use that you are actually getting worse gas mileage. In reality the mileage is about the same, but your odometer will actually just be inaccurate (as it was based on a lower height tire). You will have actually traveled farther than the odometer will read.   It is actually tire width that has the greatest effect on mileage. A wider tire has greater friction and thus has lower fuel efficiency in general.

Replying to: The_Gamaliel (Dec 13, 2008 11:45 am) Just take a look at the previous message. The largest size 15 tire would be a 205/55-15

Replying to: lewjac3 (Oct 02, 2008 4:58 pm) I think larger wheels will significantly increase your mileage by making the overall gearing higher. The tradeoff will be slightly slower acceleration. As 'Bama points out, the overall diameter is determined by the tire size ratio(ie A 175/70 will have a larger overall diameter than a 1175/60, because the distance from the wheel to the outside of the tire is 70% of 175mm, versus 60% for the 175/60).
