how many miles are on your guys v6's

You would have to remove the timing belt cover to see if it's leaking. You'll see dried up pink residue (or whatever color you coolant is if you changed it).

With over 186K mi I bet it has started to leak. I'm at 126K & I'm sure mine has started also.

 

wow!! good to know that these trucks are running strong after 100K plus miles. I've only got 1k on my 2011 but would like to see it go past 100K. i've never had a car go past 100K. i'm always trading it in but this one is a keeper..

 

Yikes, good thing I'm doing it this weekend. Probably quite a bit in there

 

Please let us know how bad it was leaking if at all. A pic would be perfect.

 

164,000 on my 98 and have had no problems. bought it 4 years ago only part had to replace was the battery. with good plugs,intake, and fresh oil changes they will last forever.

 

X2. Another reason why the 5VZ-FE is just a plain TANK!

 

Will do!

 

226,058 one owner miles on my 1999 v6 4x4 TRD automatic
avg. 19.5 mpg with plenty of power

 

89,350 on my 2003. This thread makes me proud to have sacrificed so much to purchase this truck almost 6 years ago. It's nice to know that I have a truck thats paid for, and still has so much life left in it.

 

Just hit 40,800 on my 03 Taco

 

172xxx and runs amazing only a few minor fixes but its a 12 year old truck shit happens over time

 

81,000 & 7+ years on 03 PreRunner 3.4L V-6 w/ TRD supercharger. No complaints, and sounds like it'll go a lot longer so good to hear about some of the heavier driven ones.
-Had to replace both O2 sensors after just having a Magnaflow put in to eliminate check engine codes. Anybody else have those flake out around that time or was it the new muff?

Either way it was worth it; new muff renewed the enjoyment to drive it a lot longer.

 

2004 v6 3.4l with 91k and no problems. Get a 2 Gen if you decide to get a new truck. Its bigger over all.

 

118,000 kilos.

Do I have to say it's runnin' WILD? Whoooo (Ric Flair)!

 

1992 with over 300,000 before I sold it. Put a bulb in taillight first week I had it in 92. Oil changed every 3000 miles. Truck on 3rd owner, still see it on the road.

 

Had 240,000 on my 99 3.4 before Toyota bought it back. Only thing I had to do was replace the rear end at 55,000.

 

1998

149,500

No major maintenance, no major problems (*knock on wood*), getting 22 mpg now, runs strong, plenty of power.

 

2012 643 miles

 

164k and still runs like the day it rolled off the delivery truck.
