Injector seats and cracked pistons on the 3.0 D-4D (1KD-FTV)Injection / turbo
- Engine / equipment
- 3.0 D-4D (1KD-FTV): Hilux, Land Cruiser and Dyna
- Period mentioned
- Approx. 2005–2015
- Symptoms
- Rattle when cold, rough idle, smoke and blow-by; dirty, sludgy oil and, if the oil pickup blocks, serious engine failure.
- Possible cause described
- The copper seats under the injectors often failed and let gases into the crankcase: the oil gets dirty and can block the pickup screen. Faulty injectors are also linked to cracked pistons; Toyota issued a bulletin (EG-008T-0112) for Euro IV engines.
- Check for the garage
- Check for blow-by at the oil filler cap, test the injectors (back-leak test) and inspect their seats; clean the pickup screen if the oil is sludgy.
- Cost cited in the source
- No verified estimate; ask the garage for a quote.A rough figure from the original database, not an up-to-date quote.
