Toyota Induction Parts

Your car, pickup, van, or SUV depends on the induction system, or cold air intake system, to deliver clean, fresh air to the engine. After all, that's what mixes with the fuel to feed the combustion that moves your vehicle down the road.

How Induction Systems Work

The system draws air in through an intake and routes it to the engine. It all starts with air passing through an engine air filter, which keeps the engine protected from airborne contaminants and debris that could create problems. The engine's air levels are managed and optimized in order to ensure peak performance thanks to a mass airflow sensor, the air intake manifold, and an engine control unit (ECU). They all work together to determine the ideal air flow required for both induction and exhaust.

How to Spot Induction Problems

Even the best induction system can eventually go bad, though. Signs of this include:

• The engine revs at a higher speed than normal when you're parked or in neutral
• The engine idles faster or slower than normal
• Engine performance suffers
• The "Check Engine" dash light comes on

Genuine OEM Induction Parts Perform Best

If you notice any of these symptoms, perform a full inspection of your induction system. If that shows that a part needs replacing, do so as soon as possible. The induction components made by your manufacturer are made specifically for your make and model, delivering the guaranteed compatibility that you want.
