I've heard of a couple of others with this engine having done 480,000km and still going strong, with the original transmission still running problem free too.
2005 120 series V6 Grande, 2 inch susp lift (King/EFS combo), 32 inch MT’s, Safari Snorkel, rear diff lock, breathers, Light Force spotlights, UHF, dual batteries.
Mine is 1999 2.7 litre 4 cyl Prado. I love it because I can still go anywhere but it doesn't cost as much in fuel. It has done 240000km and hasn't had any dramas. Did I mention that I love it?
Nothing wrong with the 2.7, great motor, pull well, and yes more economical then either of the V6's 3.4 or the 4L. Just dont put on gas, the head on a 2.7 does not like it and you will be replacing valve stem seal that quickly it wont be funny even with a lube kit fitted. Great thing about the 2.7 is they are known to do high klms and can be gotton from any wreckers if need be due them been so popular.(same as the hilux and hiace vans running around).......... When I had my 95 series 97 model V6 3.4 grande I couldnt keep up with a 2.7 pulling up mooney mooney here in Sydney, may have been gearing possibly (mine auto) but I was flat knackers, kept flicking back from drive to second and so on, he just kept on pulling away. Maybe he was supercharged ?? Ill stick with that thought lol Cheers Steve
