Problems:
Oil consumption issues
The Toyota 3UR-FBE engine is known to experience higher-than-normal oil consumption. This can lead to low oil levels and potential engine damage if not monitored closely.
Camshaft tower leaks
The V-shaped configuration of the engine can sometimes lead to oil leaks from the camshaft towers, which can result in oil pooling and potential damage to engine components.
Timing chain wear
Over time, the timing chain in the 3UR-FBE engine may experience wear, leading to engine performance issues and potentially costly repairs if the chain fails.
Fuel injector problems
The port fuel injection system can sometimes cause issues with fuel injectors becoming clogged or failing, leading to poor engine performance and reduced fuel efficiency.
Cooling system failures
The cooling system in this engine can be prone to failures, such as water pump leaks or radiator issues, which can cause the engine to overheat.
Spark plug fouling
Due to the engine configuration and port fuel system, spark plugs may foul more frequently, leading to misfires and reduced engine performance.
Exhaust manifold cracks
The exhaust manifolds on this engine can sometimes develop cracks, leading to exhaust leaks and potentially triggering the check engine light.
Electronic throttle control issues
Problems with the electronic throttle control system can lead to throttle response issues, including hesitation or surging during acceleration.
