I want to trade my Odyssey for a Sienna!

Written by: jetzzs on Jul 10, 2009 08:07 AM

I have had a 2007 Odyssey for 2 years and wish I had bought a Sienna! A couple months after I bought it the breaks felt like there was air in the break lines. I finally took it in (I procrastinate because I hate dealing with service departments). They said they could not replicate the problem. I took it back the next day with fresh blueberry muffins and right away they ... Read More...

Re: Engine Noise in Cold Weather [rob105]

I have a 2007 Sienna with 49,000 Km, and have the same problem. Dealer said that the noise is due to a variable valve gear bolt being too close to the front engine cover and had agreed to replace the bolt with a updated one. Apparently, Toyota issued a TSB on this issue. My van is still at the dealership undergoing repair. Will let you know how the repair worked out. Read More...

Model Comparo

Written by: ateixeira on Jun 29, 2009 08:27 AM

It's a bit tough to get the exact equipment from one van to the other, but I found a few rough equivalents when I was shopping: Ody LX ~= Sienna CE pkg 2 Ody EX ~= Sienna LE pkg 3 (this is what I got) EX-L ~= XLE pkg 6 EX-L-RES ~= XLE pkg 7 EX-L-RES-NAV ~= XLE pkg 8 Toyota shuffles the packages each year, so it's hard to get an exact match, but you can come close. A lot of folks assume ... Read More...

Re: 2007 Sienna Struts and Steering Rack [ateixeira]

Written by: zzzzzz982000 on Jun 29, 2009 06:31 AM

I had the same problem with Sienna 2004. As I drove it out brand new from the Toyota dealer in 2004 and got it in front of the driveway, I noticed an oily patch under the front left tire. I checked and saw it was coming from the strut. I took it back to the dealer who with a smile had the strut replaced under warranty. Recently, in april 2009 after 80K miles I started hearing ...

2007 Sienna Struts and Steering Rack

Written by: crestonave on Jun 25, 2009 10:07 AM

I just had the struts replaced, under warranty, on my 2007 Sienna XLE Ltd AWD. The left front strut was making noise and Toyota advised that upon inspection they found a leak in the right front strut also. In addition, the steering rack was leaking. The car has slightly less than 19000 miles on it. Toyota told me that they verified that the problems were "factory ... Read More...

We are on our third rental/fleet vehicle and haven't had any problems yet (although we've only had the third vehicle for 3 days so far!). We purchased an 03 Mitsubishi Galant from Enterprise in 2004 w/ 30K on it and it worked great... no major repairs at all. We had it until 12/07 when I was the center vehicle in a 5-car pileup on the highway... which I walked away from! ... Read More...

According to the Toyota Motor Sales, U.S.A, Inc Mailing titled: "2004 THROUGH 2007 TOYOTA SIENNA DOOR CHECK MOUNTING PANEL WARRANTY ENHANCEMENT". Why didn't all 2004 thru 2007 Toyota Sienna Owners receive their copy - or, do some who claim to own a Sienna NOT actually own a Sienna? Read More...
