2016 Toyota Land Cruiser Check Engine Light Codes

Common codes for the 2016 Toyota Land Cruiser include misfire codes (P0300–P0308), oxygen sensor errors (P0130–P0167), and catalytic efficiency codes (P0420).

At Larry H. Miller American Toyota Albuquerque, we diagnose with precision to minimize unnecessary parts replacement and to provide cost-effective, long-lasting solutions. Our certified techs use OEM parts backed by Toyota warranties, and we communicate the immediate and long-term savings of timely repair.

2016 Toyota Land Cruiser Check Engine Light Reset

Resetting the check engine light on a 2016 Toyota Land Cruiser without fixing the underlying issue may clear a dashboard indicator but doesn’t resolve the fault or protect your vehicle. At Larry H. Miller American Toyota Albuquerque we recommend a full diagnostic and repair because resets can mask intermittent problems and lead to more costly repairs later. Our technicians reset codes only after repairs are completed and verified, ensuring that the root cause is corrected. We use OEM replacement parts, maintain transparent pricing, and provide warranty coverage that independent shops cannot match. Additionally, we offer service financing and ongoing maintenance reminders to help keep your Land Cruiser running at peak performance.
