| Standard capacity |
|---|
| 10.6 liters (11.2 US qts, 9.3 Imp. qts) |
Note
Never use water as a substitute for engine coolant.
Tech Tips
TOYOTA vehicles are filled with TOYOTA SLLC at the factory. In order to avoid damage to the engine cooling system and other technical problems, only use TOYOTA SLLC or similar high quality ethylene glycol based non-silicate, non-amine, non-nitrite, non-borate coolant with long-life hybrid organic acid technology (coolant with long-life hybrid organic acid technology consists of a combination of low phosphates and organic acids).
Squeeze the No. 1 and No. 2 radiator hoses several times. If the coolant level at the water inlet opening drops, add TOYOTA SLLC.
Add TOYOTA SLLC to the reserve tank until coolant overflows from the air drain cock plug hole. Then tighten the air drain cock plug on the water inlet housing.
Continue adding TOYOTA SLLC until it reaches the B line. (*2)
Install the reserve tank cap. (*3)
Run the engine at about 2000 rpm to warm it up until the thermostat opens. While the thermostat is open, circulate the coolant for several minutes. (*4)
CAUTION:
When push the radiator hoses, wear protective gloves.
Be careful as the radiator hoses, engine and radiator are hot.
Keep your hands away from the radiator fans.
Note
If the radiator reserve tank runs out of coolant just after the engine is started, stop the engine immediately, wait until the coolant has cooled down, and then add coolant.
Make sure that the reserve tank still has some coolant in it.
If the coolant temperature gauge indicates an excessive temperature, turn off the engine and let it cool.
If there is not enough coolant, the engine may overheat or be seriously damaged.
Tech Tips
If coolant comes out from the bypass hose port connected to the reserve tank, the thermostat has been opened.
After the thermostat has opened, idle the engine until the coolant in the reserve tank goes from being cloudy to a clear red.
Stop the engine and wait until the coolant cools down. (*5)
Check that the coolant level is between the FULL and LOW lines. (*6)
Tech Tips
If the coolant level is below the LOW line, repeat steps from (*1) to (*6).
If the coolant level is above the FULL line, drain coolant so that the coolant level is between the FULL and LOW lines.
CONNECT CABLE TO NEGATIVE BATTERY TERMINAL
Note
When disconnecting the cable, some systems need to be initialized after the cable is reconnected Click here.
WARM UP ENGINE
INSPECT ENGINE OIL LEVEL
Warm up and stop the engine, then wait at least 5 minutes. The oil level should be between the low level mark and full level mark on the level gauge.
If the engine oil level is low, check for leakage and add oil up to the full level mark.
Note
Do not add engine oil above the full level mark.
INSPECT FOR ENGINE COOLANT LEVEL
The engine coolant level should be between the LOW and FULL lines when the engine is cold.
If the coolant level is below the LOW line, check for leaks and add TOYOTA Super Long Life Coolant (SLLC) or similar high quality ethylene glycol based non-silicate, non-amine, non-nitrite, and non-borate coolant with long-life hybrid organic acid technology up to the FULL line.
CHARGE WITH REFRIGERANT
Perform vacuum purging using a vacuum pump.
Charge with refrigerant HFC-134a (R134a).
| w/o No. 2 Air Conditioning Tube |
|---|
| 780 to 880 g (27.5 to 31.0 oz.) |
| w/ No. 2 Air Conditioning Tube |
| 700 to 800 g (24.7 to 28.2 oz.) |
Note
Do not turn the A/C switch on before charging with refrigerant. Doing so will cause the compressor to work without refrigerant, resulting in overheating of the compressor.
Approximately 200 g (7.1 oz.) of refrigerant may need to be charged after bubbles disappear. The refrigerant amount should be checked by quantity, not with the sight glass.
Tech Tips
Ensure that sufficient refrigerant is available to recharge the system when using a refrigerant recovery unit. Refrigerant recovery units are not always able to recover 100% of the refrigerant from an A/C system.
INSPECT FOR FUEL LEAK
Check fuel pump operation.
Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
Turn the engine switch on (IG) and turn the intelligent tester on.
Note
Do not start the engine.
Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Active Test / Control the Fuel Pump / Speed.
Check for pressure in the fuel inlet tube from the fuel line. Check that sounds of fuel flowing in the fuel tank can be heard. If no sounds can be heard, check the integration relay, fuel pump, ECM and wiring connectors.
Inspect for fuel leaks.
Check that there is no fuel leakage after performing maintenance anywhere on the fuel system. If there is a fuel leak, repair or replace parts if necessary.
Turn the engine switch off.
Disconnect the intelligent tester from the DLC3.
INSPECT FOR COOLANT LEAK
Remove the radiator reservoir cap.
CAUTION:
Do not remove the radiator reservoir cap while the engine and radiator are still hot. Pressurized, hot engine coolant and steam may be released and cause serious burns.
Fill the radiator and reservoir with coolant, and then attach a radiator cap tester.
Warm up the engine.
Pump the radiator cap tester to 118 kPa (1.2 kgf/cm2, 17 psi), and then check that the pressure does not drop.
If the pressure drops, check the hoses, radiator and water pump for leaks.
If there are no signs of external coolant leaks, check the heater core, cylinder block and head.
Reinstall the radiator reservoir cap.

Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Data List / IGN Advance.
| Standard ignition timing |
|---|
| 7 to 24° BTDC at idle |
Note
Check the ignition timing with the cooling fans off.
Turn off all electrical systems and the A/C.
When checking the ignition timing, the transaxle should be in neutral or park.

| 8 to 12° BTDC at idle |
Note
When checking the ignition timing, the transaxle should be in the neutral position.
Tech Tips
Run the engine at 1000 to 1300 rpm for 5 seconds, and then check that the engine rpm returns to idle speed.
Disconnect terminals 13 (TC) and 4 (CG) of the DLC3.
Check the ignition timing at idle.
| Standard ignition timing |
|---|
| 7 to 24° BTDC at idle |
Confirm that the ignition timing advances immediately when the engine rpm is increased.
Remove the timing light from the engine.

INSPECT ENGINE IDLE SPEED
Warm up and stop the engine.
Tech Tips
A warmed up engine should have an engine coolant temperature of over 80°C (176°F), an engine oil temperature of 60°C (140°F), and the engine speed should be stabilized.
When using the intelligent tester:
Check the idle speed.
Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
Start the engine and run it at idle.
Turn the intelligent tester main switch on.
Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Data List / Engine Speed.
Read the value displayed on the tester.
| Idle speed |
|---|
| 600 to 700 rpm |
Note
Check the idle speed with the cooling fans off.
Turn off all the electrical systems and the A/C.
When checking the idle speed, the transaxle should be in neutral or park.
Tech Tips
Refer to the intelligent tester operator's manual for further details.
When not using the intelligent tester:
Using SST, connect a tachometer probe to terminal 9 (TAC) of the DLC3.
Check the idle speed.
| Standard idle speed |
|---|
| 600 to 700 rpm |
Note
Check the idle speed with the cooling fans off.
Turn off all the electrical systems and the A/C.
When checking the idle speed, the transaxle should be in neutral or park.

INSPECT COMPRESSION
Warm up and stop the engine.
Tech Tips
A warmed up engine should have an engine coolant temperature of over 80°C (176°F), an engine oil temperature of 60°C (140°F), and the engine speed should be stabilized.
Remove the V-bank cover sub-assembly Click here.
Remove the intake air surge tank assembly Click here.
Disconnect the injector connectors.
Remove the 6 ignition coils Click here.
Remove the 6 spark plugs Click here.
Check the cylinder compression pressure.
Insert a compression gauge into the spark plug hole.
While cranking the engine, measure the compression pressure.
| Standard compression pressure |
|---|
| 1.3 MPa (13 kgf/cm2, 189 psi) |
| Minimum pressure |
|---|
| 0.98 MPa (10 kgf/cm2, 142 psi) |
| Difference between each cylinder |
|---|
| 0.1 MPa (1.0 kgf/cm2, 15 psi) |
Note
Always use a fully charged battery to obtain an engine speed of 250 rpm or more.
Check the compression pressure of the other cylinders in the same way.
This measurement must be done as quickly as possible.
If the cylinder compression is low, pour a small amount of engine oil into the cylinder through the spark plug hole and inspect again.
Tech Tips
If adding oil increases the compression, the piston rings and/or cylinder bore may be worn or damaged.
If pressure stays low, a valve may be stuck or seated improperly, or there may be leakage in the gasket.
