What Causes Noise in the Steering Column of a Toyota or Mazda 3

Part: Checks and maintenance

Video tutorial

In this video (or rather, you can hear it), we observe the noise produced by the steering column of this Toyota vehicle. This is a fairly common issue affecting various models of this brand, which can be resolved by disassembling the EPS housing and removing the motor mounted above this component.

The screw beneath the housing is very difficult to replace due to the limited working space. You will need a 10 mm, 12 mm, and 14 mm spanner: a very similar problem can also occur on the Mazda 3 and can be resolved in the same way.

Location of the Jack and Spare Wheel of the Toyota Yaris

In the unfortunate event that one of the wheels of the Toyota Yaris is punctured, it is useful to know the location of the lifting jack, the spare wheel, the tool to operate the jack, and to unscrew the wheel bolts. The jack is located under the driver's seat, secured to a bracket and protected by a plastic cover, which you can remove by acting on the fixing clips. The spare wheel is located under the floor panel of the boot, secured to the floor by a threaded plastic flange, alongside which you will find the tool, consisting of a bent bar, which is used to operate the jack on one side and to remove the wheel on the other.
