Are Toyota VVTI engines good?

The VVTi mechanism is not unique to the land cruisers. It’s pervasive across the whole lineup of toyota’s and has proven it’s worth reliability in power and gas efficiency. Look at the pros – more power and efficiency across the board. That’s not something to be taken likely for a heavyweight car like the Land Cruiser.

What does VVTI stand for?

Variable Valve Timing-intelligent
Tokyo―TOYOTA MOTOR CORPORATION announced today the development of its new “Variable Valve Timing-intelligent” (VVT-i) technology, which increases performance and fuel economy. Engine development today necessitates both better fuel economy and advanced vehicle performance.

Is Toyota Valvematic reliable?

Toyota 3ZR-FAE/FE Problems & Reliability First of all, it is very suitable for LPG. And a well-regulated and regularly serviced gas installation can cut fuel costs by half. Second, the Toyota 2.0 Valvematic / Dual VVT-i (3ZR-FAE) engine is very durable.

What does D4 engine mean?

Direct injection four
Toyota call it D4 (Direct injection four), Mitsubishi call it GDi (Gasoline Direct Injection), Mercedes call it CGI (Charged Gasoline Injection) and Volkswagen/ Audi call it FSI (Fuel Stratified injection). This is the technology in the Voxy, RAV4 and other Toyota vehicles with the 1AZ-FSE engines.

Is VVTi better than VTEC?

And a Honda engineer came up with a solution or as we all know it better ‘i-VTEC’. It is Variable Valve Timing and Lift Electronic Control with intelligence. The VVTi only alters the timing while i-VTEC alters the timing as well as lift of the valves. Also, the VVTi technology works only on the intake valve.

How long does Toyota VVTi engine last?

A Toyota engine can last between 250,000 to 300,000 miles, just as the average Honda engine can last up to 300,000 miles. However, Toyotas are slightly more expensive to maintain over the years compared to Hondas.

Is VVTI better than VTEC?

What cars use VVTI?

All current Toyota models in the U.S. use VVT-i engines except the Mirai fuel-cell vehicle, the 86 coupe and Supra sports car. The 86 uses a Subaru engine and the Supra a BMW engine, and both have variable valve timing.

Is VVTi the same as VTEC?

i-VTEC uses not only timing but also the lift aspect of the valves, while VVTi uses only the timing aspect. The technology that uses timing and lift aspect developed by Toyota is called VVTL-i and can be equated with that of i-VTEC of Honda.

Is Toyota Isis a good car?

The Toyota Isis is almost as spacious as the Toyota Estima and offers fare more space on the last row compared to the Toyota Wish. Though its selling price is much nearer to the Wish than the Estima. In general it’s a great family car, especially with Kids from all ages.

Is VVTI like VTEC?

VVT-i (Variable Valve Timing with intelligence) is a similar system developed by Toyota and has several variants among which VVTL-i (Variable Valve Timing and Lift intelligent system) is analogous to VTEC.

Are there any problems with the Toyota 2.0 Valvematic engine?

The first problem with the Toyota 2.0 Valvematic / Dual VVT-i (3ZR-FAE) engine is damage to the water pump. With a distance of 60-70 thousand kilometers, the mechanism starts making noise while operating or reveals leaks. There are defects, so dangerous that failure to react in time can cause the unit to overheat and require costly renovation.

Are there any problems with the Toyota VVTi engines?

I have heard of oil consumption problems with the new VVTi engines. My old corolla has done 125,000 miles, doesn’t seem to use any between services, same story with my 2.0i GT celica. Does anyone have any hard technical knowledge about what engines in which cars this affects ?

What kind of engine is in Toyota 2.0?

When the new 2.0hp 4 D-126D diesel engine was introduced. The D4D diesel designation is characteristic of Toyota diesel engines with a common rail injection system. The manufacturer of the injection system is Denso, the injectors with this engine are not durable.

Are there any problems with Toyota 2.0 D-4D engine?

Most injector failures occurred in cars with a 116 hp diesel engine, manufactured from 2003 to 2004 (piezo injectors). Another well-known problem of the 2.0 D-4D diesel is the failure of the flywheel, more often with heavier models like the Avensis and the RAV4. This problematic element is not encountered by the 90-hp Corolli.
