ENGINE UNIT


  1. OUTLINE


    1. The 1GR-FE engine is a V-type, 6-cylinder, 4.0-liter, 24-valve DOHC engine.

    2. On this engine, the Dual Variable Valve Timing-intelligent (Dual VVT-i) system and Electronic Throttle Control System-intelligent (ETCS-i) are used. These control functions have been optimized to further improve engine performance and fuel economy, and to reduce exhaust emissions.

    Tech Tips

    *1: Weight shows the figure with oil and coolant fully filled.

    *2: Premium unleaded gasoline with a research octane number 95 or higher required for optimum engine performance. If 95 octane cannot be obtained, you may use unleaded gasoline with a research octane number as low as 91. Use of unleaded fuel with a research octane number lower than 95 may result in engine knocking and significantly reduced performance. Persistent knocking can lead to engine damage and should be corrected by refueling with higher octane unleaded gasoline.

    Note

    When replacing a spark plug, replace it with the same type of spark plug that is installed on the vehicle.
