Problems:
Oil leaks
The 3UR-FE engine in the Toyota Sequoia is known to develop oil leaks, particularly from the valve cover gaskets and timing cover, which can lead to reduced engine performance and potential damage if not addressed.
Timing chain tensioner noise
Some 2014 Toyota Sequoia models with the 3UR-FE engine may experience a rattling noise from the timing chain tensioner, especially upon startup, which can indicate wear and the need for replacement to avoid potential engine damage.
Exhaust manifold cracking
The V-shaped configuration in this engine can lead to increased heat and stress on the exhaust manifolds, causing them to crack and result in exhaust leaks and increased engine noise.
Carbon buildup
The direct injection system in the 3UR-FE engine may lead to carbon buildup on the intake valves over time, which can cause rough idling, reduced fuel efficiency, and performance issues.
Cooling system issues
The engine may experience problems with the cooling system, such as radiator leaks or a failing water pump, which can lead to overheating if not promptly repaired.
