Hi

Can anyone answer the following questions definitively?

On my 3 door the passenger seat tilts and slides in one operation.
Should it return to its original position when pushed back? And should
the driver's seat be capable of the same operation, ie single tilt /
slide move?

I can move the rear bench seat back and fore by pulling on the bar at
the front of the bench. Should I be able to move the seat back / fore
using the bar at the back of the bench, the one that enables you to lift
the bench and fold the seats?

On the trip computer I can get Av speed, av consumption, momentary
consumption - but not the estimated remaining range. Is that normal?

Thanks in advance
Mike

I can't provide definitive answers, but I can provide answers based on the
100 or so Toyotas I am familiar with.

If the car is billed as having "memory seats" I believe that the seat will
slide back to where it was set before it was pushed forward but the seat
back returns to a "default" angle.

The driver's seat is not capable of the same operation.

No, the bars operate different mechanisms.

Other Toyotas I've seen have an estimated remaining range, but they were not
entry level cars. Do you normally fill the tank during refueling or do you
put in less than a full tank?

Thanks for those answers - most helpful.

To answer your question, I would usually refill to the top of the tank.

You're welcome! It sound like your Yaris's trip computer does not have a
"distance to empty" function.
