Toyota Hilux 2020 2020 2.8 diesel engine 1GD-FTV
Engine reliability and common problems:
The 1GD-FTV diesel engine was introduced by Toyota in 2015 to address the shortcomings of the earlier KD series, such as high noise levels, poor performance, low fuel efficiency, environmental concerns, and issues with cracking pistons. The new engine has a reduced displacement compared to its predecessors but delivers increased power, offering a 25% higher torque and 15% better fuel efficiency due to optimized combustion. Additionally, it significantly reduces engine noise and vibrations. The engine features two camshafts operated by a dual-chain timing system and is manufactured at Toyota Motor Corporation’s plant. Its expected lifespan is around 400,000 kilometers with proper maintenance.While the 1GD-FTV is considered reliable, a few weak points can occasionally emerge. The diesel particulate filter is prone to clogging, and glow plugs are susceptible to damage, often requiring replacement with updated versions along with reprogramming the ECU. The camshafts and rocker arms may experience accelerated wear, and the fuel line connecting the high-pressure fuel pump to the rail has a weak attachment, which can lead to issues if not addressed. Regular adherence to manufacturer recommendations is crucial to maintaining the engine’s reliability.
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.
