2011 Toyota Land Cruiser Check Engine Light Codes

Common check engine light codes for the 2011 Toyota Land Cruiser include P0420 (catalyst efficiency), P0300 (random/multiple misfire), P0135 (O2 sensor heater circuit), and P0455 (evaporative system leak). Left unresolved, these codes can lead to diminished fuel economy, failed emissions tests, reduced engine performance, and in some cases expensive repairs such as catalytic converter replacement.
