    GR Yaris Convenience Pack

    It does happen. Desires change. More often than not though rare means nobody wanted it then so nobody wants it now.

    GR Yaris Convenience Pack

    I agree. There is a difference if you really drive commited but unless you are hammering it, left foot braking, trail braking, regularly loosing grip etc. then it's much the same.

    GR Yaris 6 month inspection

    Worth having, mine has had stuff fixed, replaced, tightened up every time it has been checked over. Nice excuse for a drive out.

    GR Yaris Service plan and price increases

    We may have crossed wires. Warranty is important to me too, one of the main reasons I got it as my car is mainly used on track. All of my services have been at a Toyota main dealer by a GR trained master tech. I'm not advocating avoiding Toyota at all, I've enjoyed dealing with them more than...

    GR Yaris Service plan and price increases

    This is my point. The same class can vary more than 200% on the price of parts and time used. For years 1, 2, 3 you are paying £390 for an oil change and a check over. A dealer will always quote you for work. Asking for them to change your oil and check your prop shaft is no different than...

    GR Yaris Service plan and price increases

    I mean it is simply that simple. I've had 5 services and paid a lot less than the fixed rate for every one of them. Each manufacturer will be different. I had a m140 where you added the servicing at build and that was dirt cheap.

    GR Yaris Service plan and price increases

    This is exactly why you don't go on service plans. It's for people who don't know anything about their car and just nod, smile and hand over their credit card when the dealer talks about car stuff. The extra benefit of just paying for the work and parts you get done is that it's all itemised...

    GR Yaris Service plan and price increases

    I cant see why anyone does these plans. You're better off paying time and materials for what you actually need doing when it needs doing. Trying to simplify the GRY requirements to some noddy big and small flip flop schedule is clearly going to mean you are over paying on services where next...

    GR Yaris Cheap tow hook just for aesthetics

    I just did it with the Dremel drill

    GR Yaris Under seal

    I had mine done with dinitrol. All of the chassis and cavities. I didn't do suspension etc as that makes inspection more difficult. It was a week to do strip, 3 coats, cure and rebuilt. All of the sills, arch trim, exhaust, under tin etc. had to come off and about 40 quid of one use clips...

    GR Yaris Cheap tow hook just for aesthetics

    Same. I always forget so just leave them on. I have a cheap one off the previous Yaris in silver so it can be seen by Marshalls more easily than the black one.

    GR Yaris 100-200 km/h

    That is quick. Mine was 16 stock, 14 with a tuning box and runs 11.5/12 now with GPF delete (3rd and 4th Vs just 4th). 328bhp. Car is 1255kg

    GR Yaris Intercooler performance and lag

    When I fitted the oem sprayer i did a lot of logging. It was taking 20.c out of the intake temps on hot days bringing them back down to about 10 over ambient max. It's a neat solution but my 6l tank only lasts 4 minutes....

    GR Yaris Apex Yaris has thrown a valve rocker again

    Rage influence is a great term. Their content is all a bit shite since they started seeing themselves as influencers who have the most important view of anything that the world needs to hear.

    GR Yaris Alignment, Camber and handling related talks

    Yeah that's a good point. I got it from the top mount. That way I can push the camber without putting the wheel really close to the strut too.

    GR Yaris Alignment, Camber and handling related talks

    I found the extra caster really helped. I have 7 degree currently. My tyres finally wear even at -3.5 and mines -2.5 camber and I don't experience any straight line, braking or wet issues.
