Oil specifications for 2GR-FE engine

SAE 0W-20
API SN
ILSAC GF-5

Most common problems, symptoms & fixes for the 2GR-FE engine.

Engine 2GR-FE is known for reliability but common issues include intake manifold runner control (IMRC) valve failure causing rough idle or check engine light. Diagnose by scanning for related codes (P2004-P2008). Prevention involves regular cleaning of the intake manifold and IMRC components. Another issue is oil consumption due to valve stem seal wear; monitor oil levels frequently and replace seals if consumption rises. Water pump leaks can occur; inspect coolant levels and replace the pump proactively around 150,000 km. Regular oil changes with recommended synthetic oil and timely coolant flushes help prevent overheating and extend engine life. Address issues early to avoid costly repairs.
