It's a type of car problem that’s not hard to notice. 2008 Toyota Yaris transmission problems can show up as shifting delays, jumping or grinding during acceleration, the car shaking at any speed, or a burning smell or whistling sounds coming from under the hood.

2008 Toyota Yaris Questions & Answers

  • What happens when you "ride" your Toyota's brakes? Keeping your foot on the brake pedal or lightly but consistently pushing it down can lead to transmission problems. Keep that in mind when driving in hilly terrain and remember to use engine braking when possible.
  • How much can I tow in a Toyota Yaris? Think twice before offering to tow something for a friend, no matter how light the load might seem. The added load can mess with your transmission system if it exceeds your Yaris’s towing capacity. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your Yaris is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • When should I have my Yaris's transmission fluid checked or exchanged? Regularly checking and exchanging your 2008 Yaris’s transmission fluid is one of the best ways to help the transmission system perform. Some technicians would say that between 30,000 and 60,000 miles is a good timeframe for having your Toyota's transmission fluid checked and replaced, but that timeline can vary depending on how your vehicle is used and your manufacturer’s recommendations. Leaks or low transmission fluid are easy to spot and affordable to repair.
  • Can transmission fluid leak from my Toyota Yaris? Yes. Toyota Yaris transmission fluid can leak over time and potentially cause transmission issues. Worn or damaged seals, a loose or damaged transmission pan, a cracked transmission housing, faulty transmission cooler lines, or an overfilled transmission could cause transmission fluid leaks.
