Yaris/Scion & Vitz :: Check Engine Light Came On

The check engine light has been going on and off for a couple of months. I took it in to be looked at and the mechanic said they couldn't get a code, couldn't get a "good read" on what was wrong. They said I could take the car back (but they couldn't give me an inspection sticker) and drive it for a couple of days and if the light comes on, take it back to them. If the light doesn't come on after a few days, they will give me the sticker. I can't believe my car is going to act any differently than it has for the last few months -- light comes on sometimes, sometimes it doesn't. Shouldn't the mechanic be able to tell what's wrong.

have a 2005 Scion with about 60,000 miles.

Yaris/Scion & Vitz :: 2008 Toyota Check Engine Light Comes On - No Oil Cap

In January I had taken my car in for an oil change. About a Month later my check engine light comes on. I pull over and there is no oil cap. Why the light hadn't come on before then is beyond me. I also park on grass so didnt notice it. I took it to advanced auto to see what the code for the light was and it said that the engine was running lean. Is this connected? and if so how? I am driving a 2008 Toyota Yaris Hatchback

Yaris/Scion & Vitz :: Engine On 2001 Echo Stalled When AC Tried To Engage

Earlier today, while waiting at a red light, the engine on my 2001 Echo stalled. It has automatic transmission, so it wasn't me manhandling the clutch...

I started the engine, and as soon as the A/C tried to engage, it stalled again. I turned the A/C off, restarted the car and moved on.

When I got home I tested again, and the engine stalls when I try to turn on the A/C. If the car is moving when I push the A/C button the engine coughs and the car buckles.

It sounds like the compressor is seized. How common is this? I've never had this happen before in any car.

It's a 2001 Echo with 205,000 miles (trouble free I might add, other than consumables I never had to fix anything).

Yaris/Scion & Vitz :: 2000 Engine Bog Down, Loose Power And Skip

I am looking to troubleshoot the problem I am having with my 2000 Toyota Echo Automatic with 253,000 Kms

Engine will at times bog down, loose power and skip, usually giving it more gas will straighten it out. Car is now stalling after driving and stopping unless you rev the rpms higher. The car will start in my driveway and idle with no problems however sometimes it will skip after a few minutes.

Codes I keep getting is P0171 Fuel too lean bank 1 and P0301 cylinder 1 misfire (for cylinder 3 before we cleared the codes)

Here is what I have done as I am lucky enough to have a 2000 Echo so we could switch some parts for testing:

Switched the coils, spark plugs and MAF sensor (didn't look dirty) What concerns us is when you unplug coil 1 from the engine there is no change in the idle (as there is a difference when unplugging the other coils)

We have checked for vacuum leaks but cannot find any.

Should also mention the engine is not overheating or burning oil.

Yaris/Scion & Vitz :: 2007 - Check Engine Light Comes On With P0011 Code

I have a 2007 Yaris, 180,000 miles, The check engine light comes on. With a P0011 code. I know that that could mean either:

blocked oil passage
Mechanical timing fault
Camshaft position a timing over advance
Failed OCV
Or VVT controller assembly fault

Since it's been really cold out I figured maybe it was a blocked oil passage, but after an oil change and quick check - I no longer think that's the problem.

The car runs great and it doesn't seem anything is wrong at all ...

Yaris/Scion & Vitz :: Echo 2003 - Check Engine Light But No Code

Recently changed a front pipe manifold on my Echo 2003 4doors Five spd.

Noise I was reporting ealier thread seems to have subsided somehow but I did not hit the high road again, since the repair.

But I have this check engine light that went off 3 days ago and stays on.

Tried 4 times to read the code of OBd II reader and it pulls nothing. As if everything was normal.

I changed the batteries but it acts like it does regularly and it shows like there is no code to pull out.

Could that be a Ghostly Check Engine. It is still on at the moment meaning every time I drive the car.

Yaris/Scion & Vitz :: 2001 Echo Engine Light Came On / Code P1349

My great 2001 Echo is acting up for the first time in 11yrs!.. This weekend I decided to have my mechanic change the manual transmission fluid and do a general inspection of the vehicle. He found nothing wrong. I decided that before embarking on a long trip, that I would change the oil/filter, flush the radiator and put new antifreeze, change the airfilter, replace the alternator belt, added a small bottle of Lucas complete fuel system and a new battery.

I was proud of my DIY performance except that the next day the engine light came on! I took it to AutoZone where I purchase all the supplies and battery and they came up with CODE P1349 which I researched and found out about VVT(variable valve timing) malfunction. Some of the reasons for this malfunction are: low fuel pressure due to clogged or bad injectors..... Fuel pump regulator....camshaft malfunction or ECU (engine control unit) problem.

1.This morning the light was off then ten or fifteen minutes later it went on and at the same time the iddle got much faster for about two or three minutes, (in other words the engine was running faster even when I took my foot off the accelerator) and then came back to normal.

2. Later on the light was off again followed by the same sequence of events. Then at one point later I could tell that the the engine was running fast again for a couple of minutes.

Yaris/Scion & Vitz :: Fault Code P1272 - Engine Light On In Dash

For some time I have engine light on in dash. I bought OBD scan tool and I'm using OBD Auto Doctor.

I had this engine light on for some time. It come on and goes off comes on etc.

So this is the fault - P1272

I didn't find much info about this code. There are two reading about this code. Either it's something to do with fuel pump pressure or something to do with one of the cylinders.

Yaris/Scion & Vitz :: 2002 - Coolant And Check Engine Light Came On, No Spark

I just purchased a manual 02 echo coupe with 140k, It has been sitting for over 4 years as it has some type of wiring issue, I replaced the ECM thinking it was that and has the same symptoms. With key "off" the check engine light is on (about half bright) and the blue coolant light (full brightness) Forgot to mention another big problem, When I plug in the scanner there is no communication.

From what the old owner told me, He had a clutch put in it and the battery was installed backwards and it burnt the ECM. I'm thinking he bought the car as is and never got it running.

I read that the power goes through the instrument cluster. I'm going to pick one up from the junkyard tomorrow (off a 2000 manual echo).

Symptoms:

No communication to ECM

Coolant and check engine light stay on when switch is off

No spark at any of the four coils.

Replacement ECU did not fix anything.

I cleaned the three ground points in the engine bay.

I sprayed starting fluid hoping it was a fuel problem.

Yaris/Scion & Vitz :: 2000 Echo Engine Rattle Under Light Acceleration?

I just got my wife a 2000 Echo with 224,000kms on the odo. Everything appears to be fine other than a mystery rattling noise under light acceleration. If I were to describe it, it sounds as if a box of rocks were to be shaken around. Or like a rattling loose chain... <------ definitely hope it's not that!

From a search, it seems like others have encountered this strange noise but have not reach what the cause is.

From what I gather, the timing chains on these motors are literally never touched and should last the life of the vehicle.
