Starting off/Parking up- Yaris MMT

[ac1991]

Hi,

Been driving a Yaris with MMT gearbox.

Struggling to control the car when taking off and parking up. The car doesn't creep when in E (drive) and the brake has been released. I have to press the gas down which it makes it very hard to control the car when negotiating tight spaces. 

Has anyone else experienced this problem? I've heard the car creeps if you go into manual mode and you're in M1.

 

Cheers

It should "creep", on level ground when in E or M mode.

Possibly, because the car is 10+years old and depending on mileage, type of use etc., the clutch is becoming past it's useful date? Assuming it is the original?

It might only be a matter of a "re-learn" but I think that can only be carried out at a Toyota dealer.
