I have a 2003 model altezza with the 3SGE beams engine. Got this weird problem, when i start the car it cuts out immediately afterwards...why is that? What should I be looking for? The local toyota dealer doesn' t know what's wrong either...

Any other symptoms? Like did the engine died immediately, as in like normal shut down, or does it died as if it was deprived of air and shaked?

Do you have to start a few times before it will sustain idle?

- Could also be faulty ignition swithc

- Dirty fuel filter

- Faulty Fuel pump

Have you checked for error codes on the ECU?

Could be something like a crank sensor not working - the ECU will shut down the engine straight away if that doesn't work.

Colin is there any documentation anywhere on the net about this engine/car or do you have anything you can send me, 'cause I am all buggered out over this now. Any help is appreciated, thanks.

My altezza does the same thing, start and shut down after some seconds..I was changing the engine, the original engine was 3s g1, changed to 3s g4...

Spark is there, injectors are ok..what could be the problem
