2017 Toyota Land Cruiser Check Engine Light Codes

The most common check engine light codes for a 2017 Toyota Land Cruiser in Albuquerque reflect sensors and systems designed to protect emissions, performance, and drivability. Codes for oxygen sensors (O2), catalytic converter efficiency, and misfires are frequent; left unaddressed, an O2 sensor fault can reduce fuel efficiency and damage expensive exhaust components, costing hundreds to thousands in repair. Misfire codes can lead to catalytic converter failure and engine damage if you continue driving. Low-voltage warnings tied to a weakening battery can produce false or intermittent codes that confuse DIY fixes. At Larry H. Miller American Toyota Albuquerque our factory-trained technicians interpret codes in context, perform voltage and battery health checks, and provide clear estimates before work begins. Using OEM parts and the correct Toyota procedures prevents repeat visits and protects your Land Cruiser’s longevity. We combine fast diagnostics with transparent pricing, and our service advisors will explain immediate and long-term savings so you get the right repair the first time. Consider our service specials and service financing to manage cost while protecting value and reliability.
