hi,can anyone shed any light on this?

took car out the other night,everything was fine,went to use it yesterday and within a few hundred yards the EML came on flashing and the car ran rough,like its miss firing,accelleration is slugish,can any one help me?

its a 2000(w plate)is200 se

thanks for any advice received

no newish toyota petrols have timing belts they are only chain driven mate.even the new diesels are coming with chains!!

thats good then,just need to find out what the code is,

thanks for info

P1346 (VVTI malfunction?) on the IS200 normally means the timing has been knocked out (by one tooth) after a cambelt change. Have you had a recent cambelt change on your Yaris?

not yet matey,not sure if its belt or chain??? could it be a sign it needs doing?

i know its not a lexus,but i also have a 2004 yaris and the engine management light has come on and the garage we took it to says the engine fault is P1346 vut sensor/cmp sensor circuit, range performance b1

can anyone enlighten me on this?

many thanks

we,ve just renewed our 2 vans and a 15ton truck,cost £5k,thats with full ncd,been told it will be £8k next year due to

1..uninsured drivers

2..flood claims

3..excessive injury claims

they say due to the climate,its only increased slightly this year,CAN,T WAIT FOR NEXT YEAR,NOT!!!

plenty of bargains to be had,i bought my 2000(w plate) se,full mot etc,not all the history but these run forever,120k on the clock and sweet as a nut,love it all for £2k,keep looking,been offered £2500 and £2700 for mine by people passing when i,ve been cleaning it,seems the colour is in at the mo, (grathite sky, gunmetal grey)

well the other week i got the dreaded error3 on my cd player model 13902,been looking for a replacement and found a chap who repairs these,£160 or £130 and send mine back to him + £15 p&p,do you think this is a good price? bearing in mind how much it would cost to fit an after market stereo,once i,ve sorted it and happy thats all ok i,ll post his details on here ;)

AS ABOVE JUST GOT ERROR3 CODE,TRIED ALSORTS,CANT GET CD ,S OUT,TOOK TO BITS STILL NO JOY,LOOKS LIKE I,LL HAVE TO SMASH IT UP ANY IDEA,S ?

Very nice shine. You have to paint your centre caps same colour as your wheels, just my opinion ;)

:winky: yeah agree with you there,wheels need doing properly now i,ve found the colour i want,i,ll repaint and laquer,should look sweet,can,t wait for my grille to come :winky:

just spent a couple of hrs on my car,first time i,ve polished it,will finish it off later in the week and fit new sports grille,and hopefully time permitting smoke the headlights

:) will give it a go,nothing to lose!been to whitby today and she runs like a dream,could,nt fault her,thanks for the replies will let you know how i get on :winky:

:) i,ve been qouted £350 ish by my local installer,done a few of my cars in the past,shop around,there was one on flee bay last week, :)

if it was your valve stems it would smoke for more than 30 seconds,could be the wrong grade of oil ie too thin.what colour is the smoke?

its a light greyish colour,only does it when its stood overnight or stood 4 or 5 hrs,car runs great other than this

:) when i start my car is200 in the morning orwhen been stood for a few hours,it smokes for 30 seconds or so,i think it maybe valve stem seal?could anyone shed any light on this for me,has anyone else got this too? thanks for any advice,andy
