Yaris Vvt-I

[Bushy]

Hi All;

Going for a second look at a Toyota Yaris VVT-i 2003 for my son.

Thus far looks pretty good for the year, low milage etc.

But just trying to find location of the engine number. I can see 2SZ on the block, but no more numbers.

Anyone got any ideas as to where it is located please..

There is also a stick on patch on the end of the head which includes PS plus letters and a bar code, never seen this before..

Also on the registration document Vehicle details, i notice under "K" Type approval number", i have never seen this before,any ideas what this covers..

Thanks....

SO for all you who don't know where your engine number is on the 2003 Yaris.

The number is situated under the starter motor, in our case at the back of the engine. I was always told to check engine number with log book, But can tell you this is almost imposible, Took my chances and purchased the above motor after which drove it to get it on my local garage ramp to view, even then it was almost hidden from view, what a stupid place to place the number...

20,000 on a 2003, i feel was a decent buy....

20,000 on a 2003 Yaris? That's an excellent buy! Where has it been all this time? In a garage for years?

Bet it still feels fresh as a daisy!

Done a AA check on the car, everything checks out correct,two owners from new, the last being an oldish lady who lives in the city and walks everywhere and admited to not using it only once twice a week, rest of the time its locked up in the garage. inside does smell like a new motor, drives very well.
