Hi All,
I had to have my 2UZ-FE engine rebuilt early this year, since I received it back I am having constant issues and don't seem to be getting anywhere with the place that rebuilt it, even after spending a hefty sum on the rebuild.
Car starts fine cold, as soon as it is warm or even if the air temp is really hot I have issues, will crank but wont fire. Eventually after a few goes and some throttle she will start.
Other issues - Has stalled a few times in reverse and often drops revs in reverse.
- Recently backfired out the air intake
When I first took it back it was throwing O2 sensor codes, mechanic said would need to fix O2 sensors and exhaust leak before they would look at it.
Taken it back today and he believes the starter motor needs replacing and is not willing to look any further into until we have eliminated that as being the issue. I'm really not convinced and don't want to spend money replacing it for it not to be the issue.
Any thoughts?? The only code appearing is a C1201 at present.
Appreciate your help!
