My thoughts on the 1MZ-FE

[thesambehindtheslaughter]

Barely talked about it.
The non vvti older gen one model can prevent oil sludge by using full synthetic

[uqvhpsm]

Bulletproof motor, oil jelling occurs when morons don't change oil as needed

[danielplumley]

1mzfe oil gelling doesn’t come close to happening if you just change your oil with full synthetic and at the right intervals and not at 20, 000 miles or whatever. My 1mzfe has 300, 000 miles on it and it’s clean.

[Sci-Mon]

If you use full synthetic oil, you won’t have that sludge problem. Not sure why nobody mentions that as a fix.

[zseavers]

I have an 03 Avalon with 300, 000+ love the engine, want to rebuild soon

[wuer]

My first one was retired at 375k still running like new. My second one has 295k still running strong. Never a problem ever. Change oil every 5k an use full synthetic. Zero sludge.

I drive a Camry 2000 LE which uses a 1MZ-FE Engine. I imported it from New Jersey in 2009. Odometer has 197, 998 miles. I ensure servicing is done at 3, 000 mile. I have never exceeded 3, 500 miles between engine services. My engine is clean and I love my car.

Owns a 1mzfe engine: nah it won't do that. If you change your oil on time for maintenance

[Powersproductions]

Man, I totally thought I was gonna learn something about my engine that I don’t know already. My non-vvt car had some sludge when I first got it and I ran Valvoline Restore And Protect in it and this 150, 000 mile car’s engine looks like a 70, 000 engine on the inside after 1 oil change.

[CoogiMane]

I do my oil change every 3, 000 Miles because of the gel issue.

[coltringcoltring]

Don't know what you talked about. My engine run fine and smooth . No sludge or gelly in it . Brand new at only 227 690 km

[aikeemwilliams]

Mine is close to now and it has never and will never gel, not on my watch Toyota solara sle v6 hardtop with the roof view for drivebys lol

[SaintBuick]

Meanwhile my 1mz is chugging along at 366k miles, oil gel and all.

[Arrozconchopsticks]

There are 400k+ 1mz engines, keep that oil changed.

[lewis]

Literally just change your oil regularly and service your pcv valve at the proper intervals and it won’t sludge

Don’t come for 1MZs like that lol they frequently last 300k+ unopened

[KotoJuza]

Bro..just do ur oil changes and it’ll never happen. Don’t change for oil for a year and yeah it’ll look like that 😂

[doctorwhodj]

Non vvti are 2000 and prior on sienna 😊

[matthewhetes]

Oil sludge this pil slidge that yet ive seen a whopping 0 1mz engines with this issue

[AntonioMoreno-nlkb]

My check engine light was on for a p1075 code for a 96 v6 Camry le which I just bought at 167, 000 but now it’s at 169, 540 nd now that I did a oil change the light turned off nd yeah I took it to az and back to cali mfkers are bulletproof but yeah no more engine light also bought it cheap for 800 cause it doesn’t go in R nd N but I jus stick a flat head in the shifter and unlocked it bc it couldn’t even go back in N so yeah I forgot to say Issa yota😂🎉

Guy just googled it and read the first few things that popped up
