DIY : how I did the Solenoid VVT Replacement - 2012 Toyota Yaris - 1.5 L Gas Engine

" Yoyo ", our 2012 - Toyota Yaris, arrived @ 160.00 km milestone.
Talking with a friend about cars, we opened the hood to check-up the engine oil level.
He told me this engines of Toyota are leaking oil. I knew about 1.8L engines from Corolla's and Matrix ... But for Yaris engines ... So, the next day I checked up again and I saw this Solenoid Valve VVT to be the possible source of that leaking.
I called Toyota dealer to see a price : 218.99$ + taxes ...
So, I checked up @rockauto.com and I found it much cheap. I boughten it from them : 97$ taxes, transport and douane duties included ...
This operation it is much an easier one !!! Here you can see how I proceed. Doing this operation @home, can save about 100 $ (maybe more) from your pocket ...
Thank you for watching !
Good roads to have, i wish you !
God bless you !
Enjoy !

Not really… it’s on the top…
I didn’t do it when replacing.
Or, you can wait until you have to change the oil and change both: oil and solenoid…
Thank you for the comment !

Do you need to do oil change after replacing ???
