Could it be grubs? I don't know about your area, but they're quite a problem here, they feed on the roots of the grass. If that is the problem, addition of nematodes helps a lot.

HTH!

Knowing what it is that is causing your grass to yellow can sometimes be difficult to find. There are many variables. The first thing i would do would be to get my soil tested.
