Problems:

Oil leaks
The 3UZ-FE engine, due to its age, may develop oil leaks from valve cover gaskets or camshaft seals.
Timing belt wear
The 3UZ-FE engine uses a timing belt that requires periodic replacement to prevent catastrophic engine damage.
Coolant leaks
Aging cooling system components such as the radiator or water pump can develop leaks over time.
Ignition coil failure
The engine may experience ignition coil failures, leading to misfires and rough running.
Carbon build-up
Over time, carbon deposits can accumulate in the intake system, leading to reduced performance and efficiency.
Fuel injector issues
Fuel injectors may become clogged or fail, causing poor fuel economy and engine performance.
Sensor failures
Various sensors (e.g., oxygen sensors, MAF sensor) can fail, leading to poor engine performance and increased emissions.
Vvt-i system issues
Problems with the Variable Valve Timing with intelligence (VVT-i) system can lead to performance and fuel efficiency issues.
Exhaust manifold cracks
The exhaust manifolds may develop cracks over time, leading to exhaust leaks and increased engine noise.
