HELP! 3rd Gen Tacoma Engine Blew Up

Happened to me recently. Now Getting my engine replaced. You can find a used one with low miles but it's not cheap. I'd search ebay motor's.

Found this one but it's a long ways away from you. 2013 Toyota Sienna 3.5L Engine Motor 6cyl OEM 144K Miles (LKQ~345015956) | eBay

Hey Everyone,

I overheated and blew up my engine the other day on my 2017 Tacoma TRD Off Road 3.5L. Any suggestions on where to get used engines? I live in the North LA area and would prefer to buy locally. Any help is appreciated!

Thanks,

Ryno

I sent you a link yesterday about an engine for sale in your area.

Appreciate the help. I was able to lock down an engine from Toyota World.

Thanks!

Never heard of Toyota World, I'll have to check them out. Is that a company out west close to you or something like that. I'm on the other side of the USA in Georgia. Glad you found an engine. I have an 86 4Runner and trying to find a lot of things I've been looking for is like hunting for dinosaur eggs

Yes, they are located in Sun Valley (Socal). I know they ship and have parts for lots of different vehicles.

Here is their website:


The engine was way cheaper than what was on ebay and low miles! He does ask for the old parts back so could be more if you don't give him the old parts. Also offers a 3 month warranty.

Oh yea, sellers on ebay now want to rob people blind like most other companies since 2020. I was hoping they had a place for people that live on the eastern side of the US. Mostly I'm looking for interior trim parts for mine and a step bumper that used to be on it. I'd even settle for a straight bumper then I could mount a hitch to the frame. Glad you got a better deal than ebay offered.
