The 2GR-FE engine has a timing chain. If the engine is properly maintained with regular oil and filter changes using a quality brand name engine oil, then the chain should last the lifetime of the vehicle and not need to be changed.

Have a look at some YouTube videos. There are paint markers on the chain and they are indicators when they become faded/hard to see that the timing chain needs to be replaced.

Hi Gilbo, Yes totally agree with Ashley as far as 2GR-FE timing chains, if the vehicle is maintained well they will last and never need attention, The Video Ashley put up is well worth looking at and subscribing to The Car Care Nut channel as he is a superb Toyota Lexus Expert and explains things very well, he has quite a few 2 GR-Fe videos on various issues etc.

      Apart from Accidently Kelly Street, I can't say I'm familiar with their music. As my first post described, the name is a combination of Marvin the Paranoid Android from The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy, and Lee Marvin's classic Western/musical "Paint Your Wagon"

      Toyota 2023 single cab tray alterations

      Hey there, Wanting to alter the genuine Toyota tray so I can bring tool boxes all the way to the edge. However, it’s not possible due to a strip of metal (assuming anchor points) running down both sides. Is there a way around this? Grinding off the lip sticking up? Doesn’t appear ‘structural’ in any way if I grind the top lip off only pic is one off the Internet. My Ute does not have rear ladder racks etc. it is a bare tray at the moment thanks

      Toyota hilux Ute tray

      Hi there, I’m looking at putting tool boxes on the Ute tray with the doors coming right up to the edge of the tray. However, there is a lip with holes (assuming it is for straps etc) which is preventing this. Is there a way around this? Ie, grinding the lip off??

      Marvin the ZZE122 Wagon

      Each time I see this thread pop up a thought runs through my head about the naming of your wagon. I have to ask if you're a Frente fan.. They released the album "Marvin the Album" back in 1992. One of my favourite albums too mind you. They recently re released the 21st Anniversary version of the same Album. Marvin the Album Marvin the Wagon

      Hi all, My 2018 Koba’s fuel average has issues as it resets every time car is turned off. I have tried different settings. Even did the factory reset but still the same issue. Any advise? thanks, MK

      Oil cooler line

      With the VVTI one if it is rubber you can see the rubber just before it goes into the hole if I remember correctly. So if theres no rubber visible I think you're in the clear.

      Oil cooler line

      Hi Steve, That's great news knowing the oil lines have been done, I am only guessing but if they did the metal upgrade on one I would be think they did both mate. Next time your getting it serviced just ask the mechanic to check the VVT. Thanks for the update Steve KAA

      Oil cooler line

      i rang toyota and they said it had been done on my car. I had a look for myself and can see the metal upgrade. Load off my mind. I am pretty sure the vvt oil line has been done as well. it looks metal however there is a bend hidden behind a panel you cant see
