Yaris Sun Blind Issue

Has anyone experienced sun blind issues on their 2023 Toyota Yaris with a gasoline engine? Mine's got 92000 km and the blind gets stuck, throws an error, and I suspect the motor.

Sounds like a faulty motor. Does the blind make any noise when you try to operate it? Is it completely dead, or does it try to move at all?

It makes a whirring sound, like it's trying, but then stops. Sometimes it moves a centimeter or two, then gets stuck again. Does that sound like the motor to you?

Yep, that confirms it for me. The motor's probably on its way out. You could try fiddling with it, but honestly, you're probably better off taking it to a workshop. The repair will likely cost around 330€. They will likely replace the whole unit.

Thanks for the advice! I suspected as much. I'll book it in for a check-up at the workshop and get the sun blind motor replaced. At least now I know what to expect with the repair costs.
