Engine Rattle When Starting From Cold (See Video)
Discussion
Hi All,
My 2009 1.33L Yaris has started to make a noise when starting from cold (see video link below). This only happens after it's been left for a few hours, i've done an oil and filter change with genuine parts and it has made no difference. Also it usually lasts a second or two longer than what i've recorded in the video, maybe it's better now because of the warm weather. What do you think could be causing it?

I have had a similar issue which turned out to be a dodgey anti drainback valve on the oil filter. However i believe the filter in your yaris sits at the bottom of the engine so the anti drainback valve is not usually needed.
A trick with those engines and ones in the aygo is to use the oil filter specced for the 2zz celica engine. Its a physically bigger filter that fits and being bigger has less resistance to oil flow especially when oil is cold and thick.
