I've been running my own repair shop for almost twenty years, so I'm extremely familiar with the 2TZ-D engine. This is a classic diesel engine produced by Toyota Motor Corporation of Japan, primarily used in 1980s-1990s models like the Toyota Previa and LiteAce. They were mostly manufactured at Toyota's Japanese plants, such as those in Aichi Prefecture. The engine is reliable with smooth power output, capable of running hundreds of thousands of kilometers without major issues. However, as they age, common problems like aging fuel injection systems or cylinder wear require attention. Don't skimp on routine maintenance—just change the oil and filters on schedule. The engine responds quite nimbly in traffic jams, and it's fuel-efficient for long-distance driving too.
