Sienna AWD LE observations

dddishi, 11/17/2004
2005 Toyota Sienna LE 7-Passenger AWD 4dr Minivan (3.3L 6cyl 5A)

My new Sienna AWD LE replaces my 6-yr old Pontiac Montana. What a difference! The Sienna is incredibly quiet, extremely sure-footed and perhaps the best built minivan I've ever seen. I opted for the AWD version... can't wait for the snow here in the Northeast. Upgraded sound system is a tremendous improvement over GM's top-of-the-line audio. The LE version includes features which you'd have to pay extra for in most other minivans. Adding the AWD option includes important things like 4 wheel disk, stability control, 17in. wheels, etc. 2nd row passenger windows actually work like a sedan! Rear seats retract neatly into floor, leaving plenty of room for dogs. 2nd row seats flip forward.

Van used for hauling furniture and then converted to a grandkid bus. Extremely quiet, even at speed. Gas mileage almost equal to my other compact car. Mileage well up into the 20's (mostly highway). Fold down seats great feature. Power doors actually are easier on the vehicle, and us. No service problems, same as our last 4 Toyota vehicles.

All Wheel Drive Can Leave You Stranded

The Sienna's All Wheel Drive Option is based on the use of "run-flat" tires. These tires, made by Dunlop, will take you one hundred miles if punctured. The problem is that no one, including Toyota or Dunlop dealerships, stocks replacement tires, and nearly no one owns the $50,000 device required to pull the tire from the rim. As such, a simple nail will leave a family on vacation stranded for two or three days while a special order tire ships in. Since a simple nail in a tire is a foreseeable hazard, Toyota has failed miserably in providing any sense of reliability on the AWD version of the Sienna. This is a very sad state of affairs for a company known for attention to consumers.

Needs better fold down rear seats

I bought this van because it was a Toyota. I tried a Dodge and the only thing I thought that was better on the Dodge was that all the rear seats folded down easily. Only the third row seats fold in the Toyota and it is more difficult to fold them down. The middle seats are so difficult to remove and replace that once I got them back into the van I decided never to move them. They are much more difficult to remove than the seats in my 1993 Plymouth Voyager.
