The Toyota 1ND-TV is a 1,364 cc, inline‑four turbo‑diesel engine produced between 2010 and 2020. It features an aluminium alloy block and head, dual overhead camshafts (DOHC), and 16 valves. Its compact, lightweight design prioritises fuel efficiency and low emissions, making it ideal for Toyota's global B-segment vehicles.
Fitted to models such as the Yaris (XP130), Auris (E180), and Verso-S (K300), the 1ND-TV was engineered for exceptional fuel economy and low running costs in urban environments. Emissions compliance evolved over its lifespan, meeting Euro 5 standards initially and later Euro 6 with the addition of a diesel particulate filter (DPF).
One documented concern is potential failure of the exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) cooler, which can lead to coolant contamination and overheating. This issue, noted in Toyota Technical Service Bulletins for high-mileage units, was often linked to thermal stress and internal corrosion. Toyota later revised the EGR cooler design and recommended more frequent inspections for preventative maintenance.
Production years 2010–2014 meet Euro 5 standards; 2015–2020 models meet Euro 6 standards (VCA UK Type Approval #VCA/EMS/9234).
The Toyota 1ND-TV is a 1,364 cc inline‑four turbo‑diesel engineered for subcompact hatchbacks and MPVs (2010-2020). It combines common rail direct injection with a variable nozzle turbocharger (VNT) to deliver responsive performance and class-leading fuel efficiency. Designed to meet Euro 5 and Euro 6 emissions standards, it balances minimal environmental impact with low-cost ownership.

The VNT turbo provides strong low-end torque ideal for city driving but requires strict adherence to 10,000 km oil change intervals to prevent turbo and EGR issues. Using the correct low-ash oil (5W-30 ACEA C2/C3) is critical to protect the DPF and high-pressure fuel system. EGR cooler failure is a known risk; symptoms include white exhaust smoke and coolant loss. Replacing the cooler with the updated Toyota kit is recommended for preventative maintenance. The timing chain is generally robust but should be inspected for tensioner wear at high mileage.
Oil Specs: Requires SAE 5W-30 meeting ACEA C2/C3 specification (Toyota Owner's Manual 2015). API SN/SP is not sufficient for DPF-equipped models.
Emissions: Euro 5 certification applies to 2010-2014 models; Euro 6 for 2015-2020 (VCA Type Approval #VCA/EMS/9234).
Power Ratings: Measured under SAE J1995 standards. Output varies by model year and ECU calibration (Toyota Group PT-2016).

The Toyota 1ND-TV was used across Toyota's XP/E/K platforms with transverse mounting. This engine received platform-specific adaptations-revised engine mounts for the Verso-S and different intake manifolds for the Yaris-creating minor interchange limits. All adaptations are documented in OEM technical bulletins.
Locate the engine code stamped on the flat machined surface at the front of the cylinder block, near the timing cover (Toyota Repair Manual RM128E). The 1ND-TV is visually identified by its compact size, the "D-4D" badge on the plastic engine cover, and the Denso common rail fuel system components. Critical differentiation from the 1.4L 1ND-FTV: The 1ND-TV has a 1,364 cc displacement (74.0 mm bore x 79.5 mm stroke) versus the 1ND-FTV's 1,364 cc with different turbo and emissions equipment. The EGR cooler and DPF are key visual differentiators for Euro 6 models.
The 1ND-TV's primary reliability risk is EGR cooler failure, with elevated incidence in high-mileage or poorly maintained engines. Toyota service data indicated a notable number of units required cooler replacement after 120,000 km, while owner reports frequently cite DPF regeneration issues as a source of drivability problems. Infrequent oil changes and use of incorrect viscosity oil accelerate wear, making adherence to the maintenance schedule critical.
