Problems:

Engine misfire

Misfires can occur due to faulty spark plugs, ignition coils, or fuel injectors, which are common issues in V-shaped engines like the Toyota 2GR-FE.

Oil leaks

Given the age of the vehicle, gaskets and seals may degrade, leading to oil leaks, especially in V-shaped configurations where multiple seals are involved.

Coolant leaks

The 2GR-FE engine may suffer from coolant leaks due to worn-out hoses or a failing water pump, which can cause overheating issues.

Timing chain tensioner failure

The timing chain tensioner can fail, leading to a rattling noise and potential engine timing issues, common in 2GR-FE engines.

Carbon buildup

With direct injection engines like the 2GR-FE, carbon buildup on intake valves can cause performance issues and rough idling.

Fuel pump failure

Electronic MPI Sequential fuel delivery systems can suffer from fuel pump failures, leading to starting issues and poor engine performance.

Sensor failures

Sensors such as the MAF (Mass Air Flow) or O2 (Oxygen) sensors can fail, causing erratic engine behavior and poor fuel efficiency.

Engine overheating

Due to potential issues with the cooling system, such as a failing thermostat or radiator, the engine may overheat, leading to severe damage if not addressed.

Vacuum leaks

Vacuum leaks can cause rough idling and poor acceleration, often due to cracked hoses or faulty intake manifold gaskets.
