Problems:
Brake calipers sticking
Brake calipers can sometimes stick, leading to uneven braking, increased wear, and potential safety hazards.
Brake disc wear
Both front vented and rear solid discs can wear over time, causing reduced braking efficiency and the need for replacement.
Brake noise
Various components within the brake system can cause noise, including worn pads, discs, or issues with the calipers.
Dynamic brake support (dbs) malfunction
Although standard, the DBS system can sometimes fail, leading to reduced braking assistance during emergency stops.
Engine oil consumption
The 2AR-FE engine is known to occasionally consume more oil than expected, leading to the need for more frequent oil top-ups.
Fuel injector issues
With a port injection system, injectors can become clogged or fail, leading to reduced engine performance and efficiency.
Engine misfires
Misfires can occur due to issues with the spark plugs, ignition coils, or fuel system, affecting performance and fuel economy.
Cooling system problems
The inline configuration of the engine can sometimes lead to cooling issues, such as leaks or faulty components, resulting in overheating.
Timing chain noise
Over time, the timing chain can become noisy, indicating wear or the need for adjustment or replacement.
Throttle body issues
Problems with the throttle body can lead to poor engine performance, including stalling, rough idling, or reduced acceleration.
Exhaust manifold cracks
The exhaust manifold can develop cracks, leading to exhaust leaks and reduced engine performance.
