1ND-TV
Toyota · 1.4 D-4D
2002–2019
"The small Toyota diesel in the Yaris, Auris, Corolla, Urban Cruiser, Verso-S, iQ and the MINI One D (R50). Chain-driven, common-rail, frugal. German guides call it very reliable, but cars built 2008-2014 were recalled because oil can collect in the intercooler and damage the engine, and oil consumption is the classic complaint. City use clogs the DPF and EGR. Check the recall was done."

Known Issues 4
Oil consumption and oil in the intercooler (recall 2008-2014 builds)
▸Oil level dropping, oily intercooler hoses, blue smoke, loss of power
Toyota recalled 1.4 D-4D cars built April 2008 to November 2014 (Auris, Corolla, iQ, Urban Cruiser, Verso-S, Yaris; EU Safety Gate A12/1918/14): poor intake airflow lets oil collect in the intercooler, it can be drawn into the engine and cause engine damage, with a fire risk. The fix is a software update, an intercooler check and, depending on build date, new turbo and vacuum-pump seals. Earlier, Toyota fitted a redesigned turbo (from July 2010) and vacuum pump (from October 2010) for abnormal oil consumption.
Ask for proof that the recall was done (check the VIN with a Toyota dealer). No Greek-specific data found.
Injector or rail pressure valve faults
▸Hard starting, rough running, smoke, fuel-pressure fault codes
An engine guide calls the piezo injectors capricious and says the rail pressure regulator valve often fails; German guides name soot on the injectors as a costly high-mileage item; 2 of 78 French owner reviews report injection faults.
Fuel quality matters for injectors; use a reputable station. No Greek-specific data found.
Diesel particulate filter clogging
▸DPF warning light, frequent regenerations, loss of power, limp mode
The DPF is the second most reported fault (14 of 78) in French owner reviews of the Yaris 1.4 D-4D, which mention regenerations without warning. German guides list the DPF among high-mileage diesel wear items.
Athens stop-and-go traffic and short trips prevent regeneration; a diesel Yaris used only in town is a poor match. No Greek-specific data found.
EGR valve and breather clogging
▸Engine light, hesitation, loss of power in town
A German guide says the EGR valve on the 1.4 D-4D soils quickly and can be cleaned by hand; an engine guide adds that the crankcase ventilation clogs easily and pushes oil into the intake. 2 of 78 French owner reviews report EGR faults.
Mostly a problem for cars used in city traffic. No Greek-specific data found.
