  1. Problems, Maintenance, and Repair (Gen 2)
    I bought the van with 110k miles and at 115k miles I realized it would be wise to change the transmission fluid. There's no maintenance records indicating it's been done and the fluid is definitely not pretty pink anymore. My plan is to drain / refill 2 times between now and 120k. At 120k I plan...
  2. Problems, Maintenance, and Repair (Gen 2)
    My 2005 Sienna XLE runs great! except that the engine quietly dies when stopped, sometimes. There were 3 episodes of engine quitting in the past month. It starts effortlessly each time and will resume normal engine function for the remainder of the trip. The engine is at normal operating...
  3. General Discussion (Gen 2)
    Have an 05 LE w/ the factory rear entertainment system (single overhead screen) with dvd and a/v. I cannot for the life of me find the 3.5mm jack to plug in the rca cable to utilize the a/v function. Has anyone run into this before? Could it be that it never got one installed? I've checked...
  4. Problems, Maintenance, and Repair (Gen 2)
    Hey Siennachat, My 2005 Sienna LE 3.3L at around 167,000mi has been having some problems with engine hesitation/increased noise. The problem is that when accelerating, the engine is very slow to accelerate and has to work hard. The noise is much louder than normal, and when it does accelerate...
  5. Anything Sienna
    I had my 2005 Sienna LE serviced at the local Toyota dealer to replace a broken Serpentine belt. For a short while, the belt worked fine - no noise. Progressively, a squeal developed and now it is very loud at idle, when the AC is running. Turn off the AC, it stops. Is it common for this to...
  6. Problems, Maintenance, and Repair (Gen 2)
    This stems from an argument I had earlier today, and I do not know enough to speak intelligently on the subject. When replacing the front brake pads on a 2005 Sienna, should a) the rotors be machined? b) ceramic brakes be used? I have been told that machining rotors has gone by the...
  7. Introduction Forum
    Just wondering if anyone has any history of A/C compressor issues. I have a loud squeal on startup that goes away in a few seconds (this is with the A/C turned off). If I turn on the A/C it is a continuous squeal until I switch the A/C back off. I have replaced both serpentine belts (Air...
  8. Problems, Maintenance, and Repair (Gen 2)
    I've been experiencing some noise from the AC area under the hood; thought it was belts, no such luck. Mechanic with a stethoscope and some baby powder eliminated the idea that it was belt slippage, and located the noise as coming from the compressor clutch bearing. AC is still working. When...
  9. Problems, Maintenance, and Repair (Gen 2)
    THIRD Transmission on 2005 Le (title change) THIRD TRANSMISSION: I just found out today that I need a new transmission. This will be my THIRD one. The first one was replaced under warranty at 80,000km. Now at 135,000km, I now need my second transmission. I don't tow anything, nor do I climb...
