V-shaped engines like the Toyota 3MZ are prone to developing oil leaks, especially around the valve cover gaskets and oil pan gasket.

The 3MZ engine uses a timing belt, which can wear out and require replacement roughly every 60,000 to 90,000 miles to prevent engine damage.

Over time, the electronic fuel injection system can develop problems such as clogged fuel injectors or failing sensors, which can affect engine performance.

Older engines may experience issues with the cooling system, including radiator leaks, water pump failures, and thermostat malfunctions, leading to overheating.

The ignition coils on the 3MZ engine can fail, resulting in misfires, rough idling, and decreased fuel efficiency.

V-shaped engines can suffer from carbon build-up on intake valves and combustion chambers, leading to reduced performance and efficiency.

With age, the engine mounts can degrade, causing excessive engine movement and vibrations.

Although not extremely common, head gasket issues can occur, especially if the engine overheats. This may lead to coolant mixing with oil, causing serious engine damage.

The 3MZ engine, especially in older models like the 2004 Lexus ES, can develop oil leaks from the valve cover gaskets and oil pan gaskets due to age and wear.

The engine uses a timing belt that requires periodic replacement. If not maintained, it can cause severe engine damage.

The V6 3MZ engine has been known to develop coolant leaks from the water pump or radiator, which can lead to overheating issues if not addressed.

Ignition coils can fail over time, leading to misfires, rough idling, and poor engine performance.

V-shaped engines, including the 3MZ, can suffer from carbon buildup on the intake valves, leading to reduced performance and fuel efficiency.

Older models like the 2004 Lexus ES may experience oxygen sensor failures, which can result in poor fuel economy and increased emissions.
