Most common problems:

Head gasket failure

The Toyota 5M-GE engine, like many older inline-six engines, can suffer from head gasket issues over time. This can be due to age, overheating, or improper maintenance.

Timing belt wear

The 5M-GE engine utilizes a timing belt which can wear and eventually fail if not replaced at recommended intervals, leading to potential engine damage.

Valve cover gasket leaks

Due to the age of the vehicle, the valve cover gasket can deteriorate, causing oil leaks that may lead to engine performance issues.

Fuel injector problems

Given the electronic fuel injection system, injectors can become clogged or fail, leading to rough idling or poor acceleration.

Cooling system issues

Older Toyota engines may experience cooling system problems such as radiator or water pump failures, which can lead to overheating if not addressed.

Ignition system wear

Components like spark plugs, ignition wires, and the distributor can wear out over time, leading to misfires or starting problems.
