My Yaris Struggling!

[earpl]

personally pal i wouldnt drive it at all, as all that extra heat in the front aint good + it aint safe. if you dont know what your doing, just tell the garage as it sounds like your brakes are deffo sticking on. just get it don asap mate.

[Blue84]

Yeah I wouldnt drive it either - especially if you had to stop 3/4 times today to let it cool down..you've only just got the car too - did you get it from a garage or privately?

[earpl]

yeah and how many miles.

[ferrariboyuk]

That surely wont do ya MPG much good. I wouldn't drive it.

All this heat build up may effect their ability to do their job. Which is to stop the car and keep you safe as well as others! Dont use it, particually at national speeds.

i dnt drive long distances anyway its just 5mins to work n home thats all, im gonna try 2 avoid drivin as best as i can til wed because having 2 jobs i NEED a car no matter what, if i feel its getting worser than 2day then ill arange something, but when i drove it for half hour it was fine then everything started happenin, so driving to work for 5mins n then leaving it for the time im thr and then bak home 5 mins shudnt do much damage shud be ok hopefully.

i bought it privately, its only done 3200 genuin miles on clock, after driving it for 2days iv realised its not exactly the car i want, its fantastic dnt get me wrong, but the speed isnt what i want it to be, so im thinkin of sellin and gettin something faster. wel just have to c

thanx guys for bein concerned anyway appriciate it, ill keep you all posted.

If i were you, i'd get it down to your nearest Toyota and get it checked up and fully serviced. I'm not saying local garages are bad, but if your one didnt know what the problem is then it means that they're not very good.

Also give your Yaris a second chance after you get it fixed properly ... and sell it if you still find it slow, because i'm thinking something's not quite right about your car.

Anyway .. its up to you mate, but i'd get it fixed at Toyota if its the only time you'd ever go!

the calipers want taking off, the fluid wants draining and the "pots" (cylinders) need greasing, you can get cylinder grease any where. proberly a new set off pads whilst your down there. it also helps to copper grease where the wings of the pads slide on the caliper. this helps to stop them sticking and makes it easier to get them off when you next change them + you may aswell have the fluid changed whilst your at it.
