Title: Oil seal
Post by: BazaJT on 29 June 2014, 12:51:29

Friend of mine has a '02 plate Toyota Yaris on which the front crank oil seal is failing/has failed as he  has a pretty bad oil leak from that area.Anyone know how complicated a job it is on these cars to change seal?Engine is a D4-D diesel.

There a right pain in the (Y)aris

timing gear needs to come off and even then its not guaranteed to fix it.

Check the breathers are clear though

Mums first Yaris had hers done under warranty, at 19k :o apparently it was a common issue, dealer couldn't be more helpful sorting it :y
