Toyota Auris 2010 1.6 VVT-i engine 1ZR-FAE
Engine reliability and common problems:
Owners of vehicles with this engine most frequently report excessive oil consumption. The timing chain has a relatively short lifespan, with many owners needing to replace it between 150,000 and 200,000 km. Additionally, the water pump typically lasts around 50,000 km before requiring replacement.Unusual engine noises are a common issue, particularly from the VVT-i couplings. The Valvematic system controller is prone to errors, sometimes even shutting down the engine. Carbon buildup in the intake manifold or a faulty throttle position sensor often causes unstable idle speed.
A knocking noise at mid-range RPMs usually indicates a worn timing chain tensioner that needs replacement. Additionally, the alternator belt can produce a noticeable whistling sound.
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.
