Most common problems:

Oil leaks

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

Timing belt wear

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.

Electronic fuel injection issues

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

Cooling system failures

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

Ignition coil failure

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

Carbon build-up

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

Motor mount failure

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

Head gasket failure

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.
