The 2011 Toyota Yaris engine air filter sits inside the airbox in the engine bay on the intake side.

Open the hood and locate the plastic airbox connected to the intake ducting for the 1.5L inline-4; the filter is under the clipped or screwed top cover. In Tampa, stop-and-go and coastal dust can load this filter faster. If you prefer professional service, our team in Brandon can inspect the housing and related intake seals during the same visit.
