Another excellent bit of info on the 1KD piston cracking issue, awaiting the next video on the Injectors..

In the 1990's we were told to scrap the Yota exhaust system and replace it with a larger diameter piping system to open it up to help breathing freely.

Here is a tradesperson who knows what he is talking about. No misinformation. I suggest you listen to the truth about the 1KD pistons. Long hauls, high rpms and heavy loads cause cavities on the top of the piston. If a cavity develops on the edge of the combustion chamber this then will lead to the hole cracked piston situation. Nothing to do with the injectors as this was tested by Toyota engineers in 2014. The findings were the pistons are to blame for this failure, not the injectors. Toyota's own words.

So an EGT gauge will help? Making sure to keep the engine running cool when towing or in the sand.

Great video and very good experience that actually makes sense. Having been through this costly exercise myself before, the million dollar question is of course how to fix or prevent this from happening again?

Redesign of pistons or stronger pistons overall to handle the heat.

Do you think the craze of bad tunning + Chips is making the problem more prevalent?

What a well educated explanation of this prob, I just bought my first Hilux 2011 hl2 D4D (think it's a KUN25? Noticed rattling noise on acceleration so bought a bottle of injector cleaner(fuel tank additive) but it seems to have gone a bit worse? It's around 1500-2000 rpm any advice plz.
@ianeyd52152 жыл бұрын
Same problem, noise starts at around 1400 and disappears after 1800 rpm. Have you solved your problem?

It looks like a piston bowl design problem, too much overhang of the lip on the top to create greater swirl.

This isn't a peripheral engine problem but a direct piston cylinder and one would have expected toyota in their controlled engine evaluation would have picked up this issue
@bobmarli60953 ай бұрын
It seems they did upgrade the pistons on the euro 5 models which were released in Europe the euro 3&4 models never got such a thing.

When the pistons crack, is it usually just one or can all 4 be effected together? I have a prado 120, low mileage with no compression on any of them? Cheers
@enginecare1417 Жыл бұрын
Normally only one cylinder drops in compression, if all cylinders have lost compression do some other checks. Timing etc.

Has nothing to do with neglecting maintenance this is a design fault on Toyotas part which they swept under the rug.
