How to Top Up the Coolant in a Toyota Yaris XP10

Model: Toyota Yaris Xp10 - Years 1999-2005
Part: Antifreeze coolant

In this video, you will learn how to refill the coolant reservoir of a Toyota Yaris XP10. The reservoir cap is easily located by opening the front bonnet, right at the front. It is a small yellow cap secured to the body with a bolt. Simply open the cap and obtain the correct coolant. Remember, it is never a good idea to mix different coloured coolants, as each brand has its specific fluid. Toyota uses the red coolant. Unlike our YouTuber, we strongly recommend using a funnel to avoid spilling coolant into the engine.
