Character

1NR-FE

"The 1.33 petrol in the Yaris XP90/XP130, Auris and Corolla E150/E180, iQ, Urban Cruiser and Verso-S. Chain-driven, port injection, no turbo. German and French used-car data rate it durable, but it is known for oil consumption that grows with mileage, and engines run low on oil can fail. Check the dipstick and the service history."

1NZ-FE

"Toyota's 1.5 petrol for the Yaris/Echo and Asian-market Corolla (1999 on). Timing chain, port injection, no turbo. Its known wear points arrive late: oil consumption with age from about 150,000 km, chain and sprocket wear, and a VVT-i actuator that can rattle on cold starts."
