Reviews of OEM Toyota parts For Business

I got a new one from the Toyota dealer and it’s been running normal temperatures since.

My 2018 corolla lasted for 160k miles with zero issues before a truck crashed into me. CVT never let me down.

I used to be a Toyota tech and it was very rare for them to fail, except for the CH-R (which in my opinion is one of the worst Toyotas you can buy). Only ones I saw fail besides those were on very few Corollas with the direct shift CVT. And when I say very few I mean maybe 2-3 per year. The previous gen CVT was basically bulletproof. They are NOWHERE NEAR as bad as Nissans JATCO transmissions.

Been dealing with Toyota's CVT's since the first 2014 Corolla.

Overall they've been extremely reliable with basic maintenance. I've changed Corolla CVT's two under warranty, one at 80,000 KM because the torque convertor seal was leaking and Toyota didn't offer a replacement at the time so it got an entirely new CVT instead. The second was last year, it hadn't been to a dealer in a decade, hadn't had a Limited Service Campaign (LSC) done nor had it ever had the fluid changed. At 220,000 KM I replaced it under warranty because it had failed likely due to not having the LSC done combined with the original fluid.

I've done a few CH-R CVT's under warranty, the Turkey built ones in particular have been problems and there is a Warranty Enhancement Program for them.

However overall Toyota's various CVT's have held up quite well.

My CVT in my ‘17 Corolla iM is at 95,000 miles. Super solid.

Plugged EGR valve.

I recently went from FWD Toyota with good tires too AWD Subaru with good tires and there is no comparison. With my FWD in the snow I would regularly lose traction in corners at very low speed, sub 5 mph going around city streets. I could not start driving on a hill if there was snow or ice.

I had the same issue with my 21 TRD sport at 19k miles. They ended up finding “excessive scaring” in multiple cylinder heads. I ended up getting a new short block under warranty. The whole ordeal took a month and the ticket was $18k. I traded the truck in 2 days after I got it back.

Just had my 2020 Limited Tacoma threw an error code, after 6 hours of diagnostics it was a bad manufactured cylinder head. Lucky for me, I'm 4 months past the warranty (only 48k miles though instead of the 60k on the PT warranty), so now Toyota WILL NOT help at all.

Yes the size choice is criminal and the OEM trailer tires even worse. Come on Toyota.
