DBS is a safety feature, and if it malfunctions, it can lead to ineffective braking assistance during emergency stops.

High-performance engines like the T24A-FTS can generate significant heat, and without proper cooling, the engine may overheat.

Turbocharged engines can face problems such as turbo lag, bearing failure, or oil leakage, affecting engine performance.

With PORT+DIRECT injection, issues can arise if injectors become clogged or malfunction, leading to poor fuel economy and performance.

In a 4-cylinder engine, a misfire in one cylinder can cause rough idling, reduced power, and increased emissions.

Over time, the timing chain or belt may wear out or become misaligned, causing engine timing issues.

High-performance engines might consume more oil, and if not monitored, it can lead to low oil levels and potential engine damage.

Modern engines rely on multiple sensors (e.g., oxygen sensor, MAF sensor), and failure of these sensors can affect engine performance and fuel efficiency.

EGR valves can get clogged with carbon deposits, leading to poor engine performance and increased emissions.

Coolant leaks can lead to engine overheating and potential engine damage if not addressed promptly.

Dynamic Brake Support (DBS) may sometimes fail to engage correctly, leading to insufficient braking force during emergency stops. This could be due to sensor malfunction or software glitches.

The engine producing 203 hp might experience power loss due to issues like fuel injection problems, ignition system failures, or clogged air filters.

In-line engines can sometimes suffer from balance issues, leading to vibrations and potentially causing wear on engine mounts and other components.

Toyota engines, while reliable, can have specific issues such as oil consumption problems or timing chain wear, especially if not maintained properly.

The A25A-FKS engine might have specific quirks, such as problems with the fuel system (PORT+DIRECT injection) leading to carbon build-up on intake valves.

With a 4-cylinder configuration, there might be issues related to cylinder misfires, which could be caused by faulty spark plugs, ignition coils, or fuel injectors.

Being a 4-stroke engine, maintenance issues such as valve timing, camshaft wear, or crankshaft bearing wear could arise, impacting engine performance.

As a 2023 model, newer software updates or recalls may affect the RAV4, and staying up-to-date with these can prevent many common issues.

The PORT+DIRECT injection system can sometimes create uneven fuel distribution, leading to performance inconsistencies or even engine knocking.
