GR Yaris What did you do to your GR Yaris today?

I’m due two new tyres in the next few months so very interested in how these PZ5 work on the Yaris.

I find the Continentals noticeably better (and cheaper!) than the Michelins, if the Pirellis can improve on that I’ll be impressed.

I’m taking the ‘old gal’ in for 4 new tyres (Conti SportContact 7s) in the morning, 4 wheel tracking and also its second MOT. I can’t believe I’ve owned it for 4 years, crazy.

Anyway, I’m being a bit retarded but I’ve done a few searches on here and Google but can’t seem to find the standard geo settings (camber/toe)? Can anyone point me to the right post/thread?

My rears have excessive scrubbing on the inside so I think the negative camber or toe out might be too much, but I have read this is quite common so might just be the 20,000 miles I’ve put on the original tyres!

I haven’t posted in a while but I still check in pretty regularly, just don’t have anything interesting to add!

Oh, I was in Sitges (near Barcelona) last week and spotted my first one abroad. Managed a couple of terrible photos.

Yesterday but got a resonated GPF delete fitted and an updated ECU map. Off out data logging today hopefully so it can be revised to give the absolute best.

Took mine in for its 30,000 km service today. Added a cabin filter and engine air filter to the service as near by at my place of work is a dusty building site. GRY always feel so much smoother to drive after an oil change. Brakes noticeably quieter now too (But for how long!).

You have noisy brakes? Don't think I’ve ever heard mine
Still running stock pads? Ever since winter mine have been rally car kind of loud. All good now though, must of just needed a good clean and something I had not around to yet, but Toyota service sorted it for me. All set for summer and chasing WRC cars around South Estonia next month.

I definitely heard mine at lower speeds !

Stock, then EBC RP-1, now Ferodo DS2500.

The only thing I've ever heard is maybe a little bit of noise from the rear if the discs pick up a little surface rust overnight, disappears after first use.
