    (PREVIOUSLY NAMED "B/C OF SPARK PLUG) Hi everybody, maybe someone out there can shed some light on this: Three different mechanics in California have told me it will cost around $2,000.00 (yes, 2K) to replace the KNOCK SENSORS in my 2002 Toyota Sienna Symphony. Two different smog places have...

    Hi! I've got a 2002 Toyota Sienna XLE 3.0L and while checking on the condition of the air filter, discovered a hose behind and to one side of the filter housing (drivers side) not connected to anything - I'm wondering if it should be connected to something, or just hang there drawing air. I...

    Hello, My middle row driver side bucket seat's pre-tensioner will not retract. This could be caused by a twisted seat belt. Is there a way to get it un-stuck without having to remove the panel to access the pre-tensioner? If I have to remove it, where can I find a repair manual for this...

    Hi everyone, I'm having intermittent problems starting my 2002 Toyota Sienna. Sometimes it starts right up fine. Sometimes it cranks weakly when starts. Sometimes the thing will not start at all.

    Well this should be about abs codes plus the P0420 code but first for the abs I'm getting code 13 one long flash and 3 short and if I saw the code list correct it means the abs relay open circuit? Now under the hood I looked at the fuse box and I saw no fuses in the two spots both were 25a...

    2002 Sienna with 125,000 miles. The vehicle drives very well. But since about a year ago, it has been making very low frequency noise, like knocking on a large box, or like the sound when opening the door if the hinge mechanism hasn't been greased for a long time. very deep sound. At first I...

    Greetings all! I'm a brand new Sienna owner, though I can happily say I don 15 years+ of toyota ownership (my other car is a stock 85' 4runner which I've decided to park as my weekend cruiser). Just got an incredible deal on a well cared for 02 Sienna, the price being sweetened in part...

    i got a quote from PepBoys that to do a tuneup on my 2002 Toyota Sienna it would cost $492. Is that about the average price to do tuneup on this vehicle? Price seems excessive.

    My 2002 Toyota Sienna mini van has been sitting idle for 6 months now. Today I tried opening the hood and it will not open after I pulled on the release level on the inside. How can I get the hood to open or is there a work around? Thank you.

    I just replaced both knock sensors and the harness on my Sienna. It's a big job but appears to have fixed my P0330 code and the knocks I could hear. Anyway, like I mentioned I replaced the harness. The harness plug part on the right side of the engine attaches to some kind of holder. While I...
