Most common problems:

Brake fade

The front vented discs and rear drums may experience brake fade due to overheating during prolonged use or heavy braking, reducing braking efficiency.

Caliper sticking

The brake calipers might stick, leading to uneven brake pad wear and reduced braking performance.

Brake drum wear

The rear drums can wear out over time, causing reduced braking power and potential vibrations during braking.

Warped brake discs

The front vented discs can warp due to excessive heat, leading to brake pedal pulsation and reduced braking efficiency.

Dynamic brake support (dbs) malfunction

The DBS system could malfunction, potentially leading to reduced emergency braking assistance.

Engine misfires

The 2GR-FKS V6 engine might experience misfires due to issues with spark plugs, ignition coils, or fuel injectors.

Oil leaks

The V-shaped engine configuration could develop oil leaks from gaskets or seals, leading to oil consumption and potential engine damage.

Excessive engine noise

The 2GR-FKS engine might produce excessive noise due to valve train issues or timing chain wear.

Cooling system issues

The engine could overheat due to cooling system problems such as a failing water pump, radiator, or thermostat.

Fuel system problems

The engine might experience fuel delivery issues, such as a clogged fuel filter or failing fuel pump, leading to poor performance.

Carbon buildup

The PORT+CHAMBER configuration might lead to carbon buildup on intake valves, affecting engine performance and efficiency.

Transmission issues

The vehicle may experience transmission problems such as hard shifting or slipping, affecting overall drivability.
