Manual

Most common problems:

Brake fluid leaks

Hydraulic brake systems can develop leaks in the brake lines, master cylinder, or calipers, leading to reduced braking efficiency.

Brake pedal feels spongy

Air bubbles in the hydraulic lines can cause the brake pedal to feel spongy or soft, reducing braking performance.

Worn brake pads or rotors

Over time, brake pads and rotors wear down, leading to reduced braking power and increased stopping distances.

Master cylinder failure

A failing master cylinder can result in a loss of hydraulic pressure, making it difficult to engage the brakes effectively.

Brake caliper issues

Sticking or seized calipers can cause uneven brake pad wear and reduced braking efficiency.

Engine overheating

The Toyota 3VZ-E engine is known to have issues with overheating, which can be caused by a failing water pump, radiator, or thermostat.

Head gasket failure

Overheating can lead to head gasket failure, resulting in coolant leaks and engine misfires.

Timing belt failure

The 3VZ-E engine uses a timing belt that should be replaced at regular intervals to prevent engine damage.

Fuel injector problems

Electronic fuel injection systems can develop issues with clogged or malfunctioning fuel injectors, leading to poor engine performance.

Vacuum leaks

Vacuum leaks in the intake manifold or associated hoses can cause rough idling, poor acceleration, and decreased fuel efficiency.

Ignition system issues

Problems with the distributor, spark plugs, or ignition coils can lead to misfires and poor engine performance.

Oil leaks

The 3VZ-E engine is known for developing oil leaks, particularly from the valve cover gaskets and oil pan gasket.
