Re: Problems with JBL Premium Audio System [squashuax]
I have a 2008 Sequoia that was new in 2009.5. We have had it for just 2.5 years and turned 40,000 when the entire audio/navigation unit blacked out. After $111.00 at the dealer, they said "yes, its broken." and now they want $2,000 to replace it. I certainly did no expect this quality from a $54,000 SUV. Very disappointed in toyota quality.

Display Delay
Our 2011 Sequoia started acting up recently as the weather started getting colder (October 2011). When starting the vehicle up the display remains dark. About 15 to 20 minutes later the display will magically turn on, and from that point will operate normally. We've noticed that the delay duration seems to be getting longer. I've taken the vehicle to Toyota and showed the admissions person the problem, only to have Toyota ... Read More

Problems with JBL Premium Audio System
My 2008 Toyota Sequoia SR5 has the JBL Premium Sound System / Stereo with 6 disk changer. I already had to have the whole unit replaced once due to sound quality issues that were covered by a service bulletin. Just yesterday the CD/Aux switch stopped working. Although I can still switch from AM to FM1, FM2, or CD, it is not possible to select the Aux input, which means I can ... Read More

Recommended transmission fluid change
I forgot to add this question to my previous post.... Does anyone know the recommended time to change the transmission in a 2008 Sequoia? The manual is very vauge and recommends "checking it" several times if you tow with it, but never states a suggested time to change it otherwise. Obviously, I know this will vary depending upon usage type, but I am still a bit shocked that they didnt have ... Read More

Re: has anyone responded to the accelerator recall [saramaddie]
We also have a 2008 Sequoia and have not taken it in for the recall yet as I also am concerned that the "fix" will be worse than it is now and also was waiting to see if anyone had received the "brake override" up-grade that was promised by Toyota as I believe this would make our Sequoia much safer. Has anyone been able to get the promised brake override installed? ... Read More

About that list at the top of the page
Vehicles in recall include: 2009-10 RAV4 2009-10 Corolla 2009-10 Matrix 2005-10 Avalon certain 2007-10 Camrys 2010 Highlander 2007-10 Tundra 2008-10 Sequoia I have a 2010 Highlander and I have not been notified about any recalls. Maybe because it was Made in Japan. I called Toyota and gave them the VIN just to be certain. Anyway, how about cleaning up the list? Accuracy is important. John

Re: New Member [blown7]
I have a 2008 Platinum Sequoia. The DRLs can NOT be turned off. Even though they are described as "on/off" in your invoice, they aren't. I believe then can be turned off in Canada but not in the US.

Re: 2002 Sequoia Rear Window Motor Failures [seq200246]
Toyota is aware of this problem but not done a recall. Instead they've taken money hand over fist in doing repairs.

Differential Ratio For 2008 Sequoia Limited 5.7
Gentlemen, Can anyone tell me how the vehicle "sees" its speed? Is it a mechanical / electronic driveline sensor or is it via wheel sensors [via the ABS]? My concern is that I would like to have a taller differential gear ratio installed with a view to improving the city fuel economy. My BMW uses wheel rotation [ABS sensors] to compute vehicle speed, so a change in differential gearing only affects ... Read More

damos156, That's not too bad out the door, though not great (just my opinion though). Granted, I bough my Sequoia LTD just over a year ago, but that said, given all of the "issues" Toyota is having lately, I'd think they'd be awfully hungry to make deals. Nobody is buying Toyotas. I was able to buy my LTD for $1000 below invoice period. The only "extras" I paid was a doc/DMV ... Read More

And then there's 6% sales tax. I'm thinking $51,500 OUT THE DOOR is a good deal. This would be the first new car that I buy so I haven't had much experience with this negotiation process.

Re: RE: Price for 2008 or 2009 Sequoia SR5 4WD 20k miles
I am a Sequoia LTD owner, and I can tell you that 52k or 54k (out the door) for a LTD sounds ridiculous. That's just me, but keep in mind that Sequoias aren't moving like other models. Case in point, Toyota never released a 2009 model (only 2008 and 2010 were released). These dealers must be trying to hose you w/ a cost of 50k plus. Try contacting the "Internet Manager" ...

December 2009 Numbers
Sorry, busy yesterday; here they are. SEQUOIA = 1,760 in December 09 versus 2,399 in December 08, which is down -31.9%. Toyota saw a December surge and other vehicles seemed to do well based on this report, so my guess is that the Sequoia number must reflect something other than decreasing demand. Their willingness to increase incentives may depend more on units produced/available compared to units sold, and that may have ... Read More

2008 Sequoia
Search craigslist - at least in the bay area/sacramento. There are a few which the dealers are trying to get rid off as used but have 80 - 100 miles on them. 7yr/100k mile warranty ( from Toyota) costs about $850. I'm sure the dealers can be motivated to throw this in.

Re: What is the best price for Sequoia 2010 Limited [manavi]
People getting 10,000 off sticker was due to a melt down of the economy, high gas prices, and over production of the Sequoia. Toyota cannot stay in business if it means giving 10,000 off sticker to sell a vehicle. Sequoia production was cut in half from what was produced in 2008 so you will not see the huge inventories of 2008 repeated. I could have bought a 2008 Sequoia but I ... Read More

Re: Need help in $ Offer for 2008 Sequoia to Dealerships [canddmeyer]

Re: 2010 Toyota Sequoia [ratm]
According to the website, leather is standard on the SR5. That alone accounts for much of the price difference from the 2008. I know it's Toyota CA, but can we assume that leather seats will be standard in the US as well? That, along with the other features that are indicated to be standard, would greatly reduce my interest in purchasing an '08.

Hi Car Man (and everyone else), I'm in PA and interested in leasing a 2008 Sequoia, either Platinum Edition (with Rear Seat Entertainment) or Limited Edition (with Navigation and Entertainment). I know I'd be better off buying at this time than leasing, but I have to lease due to business reasons. I'm looking at 36 months (would do less if better lease offered), 15k miles/year. My question is, I've requested quotes ... Read More

Grinding fixed 2002 sequoia
I took my car to the dealer, at first he thought it was just dirt in my sensors. When he cleaned my sensors and checked the code on the computer again, he got a vsc sensor problem. My brakes never failed, but the vsc which stands for (vehicle stability control) was making my car pull hard right and trying to take me off the road. I borrowed the dealers loaner car ... Read More

Re: We thought we picked out an SUV....but we are having doubts [buzzy8]
Here's some additional thoughts: "We are looking at the Limited, mainly because we have 3 kids and it just seems easier to load them into the 2nd row than have one climb into the back." I agree with the other poster. Depending on the age of the kids, as they age they will want more separation. My 14 yr old actually prefers to ride in the 3rd row even when no ... Read More

Re: Limited 4wd quote [xier]
I do not think you can use the 12K under MSRP and 8K for zero percent for the "GREAT DEAL" for any range of the vehicle price, what I mean is that I do not believe you can use these numbers as constants, they have to be used as percentages. I believe a base model 2008 Sequoia w/5.7 L 2wd is around $35,750, if one was to take this philosophy, then ... Read More

Re:rotten egg smell [barb24]
I don't have this problem with my 2008 Sequoia, but I did with my 1995 Mazda truck and it was caused by the catalytic converter having a crack in it. The whole thing was replaced and then the problem was solved. I would suggest looking for a mechanic that specializes in Toyota's and getting them to diagonse the problem. If it is something that is under warranty see if the mechanic ... Read More

Re: Is Toyota extending the cash back and 0% financing past 9/2/08? [zcygnusx]

The two ABQ dealers are owned by the same person and are known for not negotiating with you. I called Camelback Toyota in PHX to ask about a Sequoia they had listed on their website.

Re: '08 Platinum Deal [kmrboston]
I agree there does not seem to be too many '08 Sequoias on the road in Chicago area, but here are the national facts. Toyota sold 3,195 Sequoias in August, UP 86% from a year ago. Year-to-date they sold 22,562 Sequoias, UP 38% from 2007. That does not sound like a vehicle that is struggling as much as people say it is. To be fair, last year was probably lower than ...

Re: resale value [luke150]
Luke, you need not worry about Toyota cancelling the Sequoia anytime soon. Although sales are well off what was planned, monthly sales are still way ahead of the old model one year ago. Also, they have a huge fixed development investment that they would not walk away from yet. I'm curious why you think that if Toyota dropped the Sequoia for 2009 that the resale value of the 2008 models would ... Read More

Re: 2004 Toyota Sequoia Rear Hatch Door Problems [ichiro51]
I also have a 2004 limited with the same problems. The rear window stop working all together about a year ago. On 08/12/2008 I shut the rear door and the latch broke. I called the Toyota dealership and of course this part is not under warranty. I will definitely call Toyota's 1-800 # to make a complaint. I believe the latch is a defect, this vehicle is hardly used.

Re: 2008 Sequoia Platinum [wbender]
We purchased the cargo mats, instead of the carpet mats, from Toyota for the Sequoia and they not only look great but are also made for the vehicle. The rear mat comes in two sections for when you have the 3rd row up. Before you purchase the mats take a look at the Toyota mats.

Re: Money Factor and Residual - 2008 Sequoia Limited [jmcdermott1]
Hi jmcdermott1. It is definitely not in your best interest to enter into such a long lease. The main reason why it is not a good idea is Toyota's special lease money factor for the 2008 Sequoia is only available for leases up to 36 months in length. If you lease this truck for 60 months, the money factor that is used to calculate the interest portion of your lease payment ... Read More
