Toyota Auris 2010 1.8 16V Valvematic engine 2ZR-FAE
Engine reliability and common problems:
Owners often report excessive oil consumption. Carbon buildup in the intake and on the throttle body frequently causes unstable idle speeds. The Valvematic system controller is prone to glitches, often throwing errors or even stalling the engine.Engine operation is often accompanied by unusual noises, particularly from the VVT-i couplings. Despite having a chain-driven timing system, the chain tends to stretch after 150,000 km. If not replaced, it can damage rollers and other components over time, with debris from wear contaminating the oil. Additionally, the water pump often starts leaking after approximately 50,000 km.
Overall, this engine can last around 220,000 to 370,000 km if properly maintained, using the correct quality oil and fuel, and carrying out regular checks and maintenance.
The engine has hydraulic valve tappets (lifters), which provide quieter operation and do not require periodic adjustment, but are more complex in design and can cause serious engine damage in the event of failure.

Camshaft drive | Timing chain Chain motors are considered more reliable, chain replacement usually is required less often than a timing belt, but they are often louder and vibrate more. More service info |
Timing chain change interval | 150,000 km (recommended) Sometimes manufacturers do not specify timing chain replacement intervals and design chains for engine life. However, once the recommended change interval has been reached, it is recommended to periodically check the condition of the chain and to change the chain if excessive stretching is detected or if unusual noises from the engine or other symptoms occur. |
