If you read your owner's manual, it should have said to take your Toyota Yaris to the dealer every time you plan upon disconnecting your battery from your car. Only the dealer can reprogram the odometer for your to reflect the correct miles or km.
A ecometer will give you mph, mpg, or rpm plus LED lights to remind the driver about how to best hypermile. The ecometer costs $69.99.
It took me all of a few seconds to adjust to the speedometer being moved to the top center of the dash. I have been driving vehicles for 35 years with the speedometer behind the steering wheel. One of the best parts of the design of the Yaris is that Toyota moved the speedometer to the center of the dash. The permitted Toyota to slope down the dash behind the steering wheel. The sloped down empty area of the dash gives the buyer of the Toyota Yaris the ability to customize the Yaris in ways unavailable to other vehicle drivers. It took me a couple of weeks to figure out that I could mount a navigation system right behind the steering wheel. Best place for the navigation system to be at. Behind the steering wheel is where I installed my ecometer as well.
I have seem some people install 4 additional gages in the storage compartment behind the steering wheel. Mounting gages in the door, or mounting gages behind the door, behind the steering wheel, is only possible if you buy the liftback version of the Toyota Yaris. I put a extra umbrella in that storage area. Of course if there was a Pep Boys near by I might pay someone put a few extra gages on the door. I am not certain of the Pep Boys equivalent here in NE Ohio.
My 2008 Yaris is also having the same darn problem with the gas gauge. I paid $500 to fix my fuel pump, then the darn thing die again a couple days later.
After I towl it back to the garage to found out it was the gas gauge. When it is at 2 gauge it is out of gas.
Waste of my $$.......... next time I am buy something American....... piece of s$#!
