We discuss the best and worst Toyota and Lexus engines ever made. This list of engines comes from actual experience of working on majority of these engines for a very long time.
Take care of your car and it will take care of you. The best engines even if you don't take care of them well, they'll keep going. Some of the honorable mentions need their maintenance to be done on time to keep going.
Then there are engines that no matter what you do, they'll not keep up to the Toyota reliability standard. And lastly we address some engines that are developing issue trends most of due to lack of maintenance.

@@Jeff-sp7bg _Hi Jeff. I once owned a 2k Tundra also. I drove it for at least 5+ years w/out any issues other than installing a new O2 sensor. Oh & the brakes/rotors, IMHO, were designed to be 'too small/underweight' for such a large truck. I found myself getting new brakes/rotors more often than I thought I should. Other than that, I really loved that super reliable truck._ _The only thing that killed it was when I went sliding into a deep ditch due to hitting a patch of ice that I just simply didn't see. After I got winched out of the ditch, I drove slowly home (which was just a few more miles down the road). The truck was actually drivable & I thought it 'could be saved'. But of course, State Farm thought otherwise. So, it was totaled & I got a check for $12k. I still miss that truck!_ One last thing (which I'm sure you already know): make darn sure you keep up with the maintenance, but especially in regard to the TIMING BELT. You see, because these engines are 'interference engines', you'll want to make 'darn sure' the timing belt is strong. Because if it (the timing belt) were to ever break while the engine is engaged... the engine is basically DESTROYED. : ( So...make darn sure you keep accurate records of what age the timing belt is and then change it to a new timing belt at recommended intervals (and perhaps even think about changing the timing belt even a month or two earlier than what is recommended). Anyway, good luck... & watch out for 'patches of ice'... LOL. 👍

For me the brand that really pulled me in was Volvo. Volvo people and Toyota people have a lot in common I find 😉 Volvo must have been fond of the Japanese they used Aisin as their sole supplier for automatic transmissions for many years and collaborated with Yamaha for a V8 engine, which went into a few Volvo models and those are now absolute unicorns.

Interesting how you mentioned the 10,000 mile interval on the 2AR-FE. I just bought a 2016 Camry with that engine. I remember hearing the dealer tell me it only needed an oil change every 10k, and was horrified. I’ve put 10k on it so far and I’ve had the oil done twice 👍

Great point - I nearly had to wrestle with my dealership to have them change my oil at 7,000kms (yes, Canadian...I know - boo, hiss!). The service advisor told me no fewer than 6 times that the service interval is printed in the owners manual, and is not called for until 16,000 kms. I told him that I wasn't interested in an engine tear-down outside of warranty period...change the oil. If all goes well, I plan to roll 400,000 kms with this engine (250,000 miles).

I have a 2017 with a 2AR-FE. Bought with 34,000 miles and currently has around 52,000 miles. Still low miles, but it's had zero issues. Oil changes every 5,000 miles or at least once a year since I don't drive much. Anyone who would dare push an oil change interval to 10,000 miles is crazy. That's just asking for trouble, even with these great engines.

I bought a 2002 Land Cruiser in 2013 with 145K miles, and even for a person that is very familiar with Toyota quality, it overwhelmed me with its excellence. Just picked up a 2006 ES330 for my teen to drive to school and with 127K miles it idles so quietly I sometimes forget it is running. That's why I never go out and buy a new Toyota or Lexus----I know that I can buy them years, even decades, from now for a song and they'll provide 99% of what they did new.

If I address it soon, it can be saved, but much longer it won’t be worth fixing. Hard to think of another car to replace this one when it’s time. I’d say another Yaris, or a 16’-18 Tacoma 2.7 4x4 Manual Trans.

Hi my friend, I like the way you talk about Toyota engines. You know your stuff. You've done engines in your own shop I guess for a long time. I have a 2003 Toyota echo. It's got almost 245,000 mi on it. I've been driving it for 21 years. Is come in June. There were two models made of this car. I got the Japanese version which was a better version than the American. I just consume a little bit of oil but I keep a record when I have to add the oil. I write the mileage down and everything. It's been very good on gas and everything. Thank you for having a channel like this and telling people about information on Toyota engines. Thank you.

As for me, I used to drive lexus is250 2006 for 3 years in Siberia. The temperature varies from -40 C in January and +30 C in summertime. Mine was 310.000 km when I sold it. I've seen it on the market with 340,000 km later on. The new owner says it runs great. It burned like 300-400 ml of oil for 6-8k km. I used to push my gas pedal everyday without any doubts. Raised my max for 230 km hour on it according to speedometer. Amazing car.

Beautiful video ! Couldn't be better ! We import used Japanese cars in our country. I have a 2003 Corolla Fielder Z Aerotourer JDM. It is a Corolla station-wagon with a 2ZZ-GE. It is doing 240,000kms and can still reach the limiter easily. No engine problems except renewal of the 4 coil packs, and exhaust manifold ring-joint. Because of our bumper-to-bumper traffic and winding roads, I renewed the throttle body last month. The butterfly was worn......fast-idle. Everything else is stock/original. Most popular engine is the 1NZ-FE. That engine design is over 12 years old and is still being used in the Hybrid system of the JDM Toyotas.They just go on and on like the Energiser bunny ! Thanks.

Currently I have two 2002 Camrys one a 2.4l and the other 3.0l 235K and 303K respectively, also have a 2003 Matrix 1.8l with 248K. Each Car makes me smile every time I drive it. I appreciate the emphasis on this channel about authentic Toyota parts, proper maintenance and a balance of what is right or wrong with Toyota products. Being a former Chrysler dealer mechanic (1983-1989) the switch wasn't hard. I'm now a truck driver (still tinkers/fixes cars) and I used to get calls from my wife that something was wrong with the car not anymore with Toyota :) I find myself constantly promoting this channel and well maintained Toyotas to people in my circle of influence.

I'm so glad you covered the 1NZ-FE engine and to say your a fan of it! I have one in my 160k mile 2012 Yaris. It just runs like a top. I did a valve cover gaskets and underneath looked brand new. Doesn't burn a drop of oil. (5k oil changes with Pennzoil Platinum and OEM oil filter, trans and coolant per your recommendations). I have not had any problems other than ones I make for myself. I broke an oil control valve tightening up a belt. The only maintenance item I have not done is check valve clearance. It's lost a little of its MPG's and a little power. Not sure if that is worth doing. I want to hit at least 300k on this engine and would be curious if this would be worth it. The value of this car being dead nuts reliable is beyond what the car is worth. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! I'm thankful for you and your channel. You've answered countless questions of mine.

Did you forget these two engines ? The Tacoma 3RZFE and the newer version of this engine the 2TRFE. I have owned both of these engines and although they are a little underpowered for towing they will last a very long time. I finally sold my 1998 Tacoma pre runner that had the 3RZFE to a friend that needed a reliable means of transportation. I sold it to him when it had 180,000 miles. All that I did was change the oil every 5,000 miles. I always used synthetic oil and a Toyota oil filter or a purolator boss oil filter. Today that 3RZFE is still running with 400,000 thousand miles on it. The only thing the engine has had is a water pump besides regular maintenance. The 3RZFE is a strong engine in my book. I have also owned the brother to the 3RZFE the 2TRFE. I have a newer one with lower miles but I have seen from fleets that bought Tacomas with the 2TRFE with all of them with over 200,000 miles and three with 370,000 miles on the clock. The 2TRFE does have the plastic valve cover and intake but only a had full out of the fleet had to have new gaskets on either the valve cover or intake gasket. Only two had to have both replaced. After replacing the gaskets all the trucks continue to keep on going. I agree with every other engine that was mentioned because I have also owned the 2AZFE engine that was talked about. Yes, it is a good engine and it will last if you keep oil in it. It will always start to use oil at some point. It depends on how fast the oil rings get clogged some start at 50,000 miles other are not that bad until they reach 100,000 miles. I still own a 2AZFE it now has 180,000 miles. It runs like new, but you must keep a close eye on the oil. Sometimes it will use a half quart in 5,000 miles. Other times it will use a half quart in 2,000 miles. The engine doesn’t hold much oil only 4.3 quarts so running it low is going to hurt your engine. So, a good engine yes but you must check the oil on a regular basis. I thank you for giving a run down on the best and worst Toyota engines. Happy New Year and best wishes !

My guess of the engine he didn't mention would be the 2TR-FE. Looking forward to the next video!

I may not be happy that my wife's 1ZZ-FE did not make the cut, but I do want to thank you for sharing your knowledge/opinion with the world. glad to see that the engine in the EVORA was spoken to, in a positive way :)

I’ve got a 2AZ-fe from 2002, it’s run nearly 400000km and the last few owners abused the heck out of it. Still runs, doesn’t burn oil, leak coolant or oil, and sounds great

I totally thought you had forgotten about the 3SGTE and the 2ZZ until you dropped them into legendary status at the end! They are/were such incredible fun in the Celica's I've owned over the years. Performed great on track days, and they are super reliable too.

You saved a subscriber by at least mentioning the 22R. I have replaced the timing set on my dads and the modern replacement are much better than original, similar set on my Nissan KA24E, same eating things up and modern sets don't have that problem because they are metal. Chain rattles are why the companies went to belts. Thank you for a year of great videos!

I have a 4Runner powered by a 3vz engine. To offset the poorly designed exhaust manifold, I used Amsoil oil. After 500,000 miles, the engine still runs good.

Thankfully with Toyota, as long as the engine is not on the worst list, you likely will be great with what you have. Thanks as always for your videos and I too look forward to 2024 and beyond!
