Problems:
Oil leaks
The 2UZ-FE engine is known to develop oil leaks from the valve cover gaskets, timing cover, and oil pan gaskets over time.
Timing belt issues
The 2UZ-FE engine uses a timing belt that needs regular replacement. Failure to replace the timing belt at the recommended intervals can lead to engine damage.
Excessive oil consumption
Some owners report higher-than-normal oil consumption, which may require more frequent oil top-ups.
Fuel injector problems
The fuel injectors on the 2UZ-FE can become clogged or fail, leading to poor engine performance and fuel economy.
Cooling system failures
Radiator and water pump issues are common, which can lead to engine overheating if not addressed promptly.
Crankshaft position sensor failure
The crankshaft position sensor can fail, leading to poor engine performance or the engine not starting.
Exhaust manifold cracks
The exhaust manifold on the 2UZ-FE engine can develop cracks, leading to exhaust leaks and increased noise.
Spark plug wear
Spark plugs can wear out more quickly, especially if the engine is run under heavy loads frequently. This can lead to misfires and poor performance.
Throttle body issues
The throttle body can become dirty or malfunction, causing erratic idling and acceleration problems.
Mass air flow (maf) sensor failure
The MAF sensor can fail or become dirty, leading to incorrect air-to-fuel mixture and poor engine performance.
