Yaris Hybrid Battery Replacement

Hybrid Battery Replacement for the Toyota Yaris: a traction battery reconditioned with balanced tested modules or a new pack, fitted and health checked.

Toyota and Honda hybrid systems are exceptionally durable, and when a traction battery does weaken it is usually a few modules rather than the whole pack. Reconditioning with balanced modules is often the better value; a new pack is the right answer on a high mileage car you intend to keep. We test first and tell you which you need. The Yaris hybrid is one of the most reliable cars on UK roads, and its battery, inverter coolant pump and brake actuator are the parts that eventually need attention.

Fitting

Labour guide: about 4 hours. Japanese manufacturers change parts by build date and by market, and grey imports add a second layer to that. Send the VIN or chassis number with the order and we confirm the part against the build data before anything is dispatched. For imported cars send the chassis plate, because the UK registration will not tell us enough. We are an independent parts specialist for Japanese cars. We are not Toyota, Honda, Nissan, Mazda, Subaru or Mitsubishi and are not appointed by any of them; the names are their trademarks and are used here to describe fitment. We stock genuine, OEM and quality aftermarket side by side and every listing says which is which, because the price difference is real and so, sometimes, is the quality difference.

Which version to buy

Remanufactured is rebuilt to specification with new wear parts and tested, with a surcharge refunded on your old unit. New Unit is a brand new unit rather than an exchange.
