Most common problems:

Oil leaks

The 2JZ-GE engine is known for potential oil leaks, often from the valve cover gaskets or oil pan gasket.

Head gasket failure

Over time, the head gasket can fail, leading to coolant leaks or engine overheating.

Timing belt wear

The timing belt requires regular maintenance and replacement; failure to do so can result in severe engine damage.

Valve stem seal wear

The valve stem seals can wear out, causing oil to leak into the combustion chamber and resulting in blue smoke from the exhaust.

Idle control valve issues

Problems with the idle control valve can cause rough idling or stalling.

Fuel injector problems

Fuel injectors may become clogged or fail, leading to poor engine performance or misfires.

Cooling system failures

Radiator or water pump failures can lead to engine overheating.

Ignition coil failure

The ignition coils may fail over time, causing misfires or poor engine performance.
