    I tow with a tongue weight close to 400 pounds (bike rack on a dual receiver), but my tow weight is only 2000 pounds. My 2006 handled this setup with an AirLift 1000 with no issues. My 2016 with the AirLift 1000 was dragging a lot more on the maiden voyage and AirLift recommended a 1” spacer...

    Rear wheels can't be adjusted during an alignment? This is my 3rd Sienna (04, 13 & 16) and the first I’m hearing of this issue. I took my 2016 XLE AWD in for inspection. I knew I needed new tires because I had already worn through the garbage OEM runflats in just 15K miles. What I didn’t...

    I realize that Sienna's are known for wearing out tires pretty quickly, but mine seems to be compounding the problem with the front wheel alignment not holding. Curious if there are any known issues with Alignment on generation 2 to look out for? We bought a new set of tires, and just a few...

    My front tires are wearing on the outside edges. Brought in to NTB to see if it's adjustable without buying aftermarket camber kits. They said to replace control arms (also front lower suspension, tire protection, blah, blach...) which would cost me arout $1800ish and no need to adjust camber...

    My 2011 Sienna LE gets throw around in crosswinds. When it gets pushed by a crosswind it turns the van and it requires steering input to get it back. It is very unnerving and seems dangerous. I also have a SUV and it gets blown in the wind but nearly as much and rarely if ever requires...

    Anyone have them? I can't seem to find them anywhere on the 'net. Are the specs for the SE different from the specs for the other models? Thanks

    We have an 04 Sienna LE. The car now has almost 100K miles on it. It have been a real reliable car for us so far. Actually the most reliable car we ever had so far. Nothing wrong except the notorious cracking dash board. Even with that I am not too troubled with since the car has seen its fair...

    Can anyone tell me how to adjust the Camber on a 2001 Toyota Sienna for the front wheels? A recent alignment check indicated they were out of spec. I can find plenty of info on adjusting the toe, but nothing on camber. NOthing in my manual about alignment at all, actually.

    I just changed the rack on a 2004 Sienna and the steering wheel is cocked to the left. Does anybody have suggestions on the best way to align the coupler to the 'straight' position or is it just a trial and error thing? Thanks in advance.

    Hello, I am in the process of changing the timing belt on a Sienna 2006. I installed the timing belt and all the timing marks aligned. I was turning the engine by hand using the crankshaft bolt. However I forgot to pull the pin on the timing tensioner and the belt slipped. Now the crankshaft...

    Hope someone can answer or share some of their experiences with alignment issues with their 2013 or earlier siennas. I just bought one 2 weeks ago and the steering wheel is no centered and to the left. I took it back to the dealer and got the alignment done and while I was driving it back home...

    I have a 2002 Sienna XLE with 130K with what appeared to be a wheel balance issue, but is not. Briefly, the shaking begins at around 60 MPH and increases as the speed increases. It does not go away as a balance issue generally would indicate.We've been chasing this issue now for 2 years and we...

    cleaning the sludge out of the camshaft area under valve cover - took out the shaft NOT connected to the timing belt (dumb dumb) - marked it but must have done something wrong - car won't start now - shaft must be in wrong position - how do i align it so the lobes are in the correct position?

    Hello all, Since we've owned our '02 Sienna, it has had a problem pulling to the left. Not only is this frustrating on the road when you have to keep constant slight pressure in one direction, but it has also proven deadly to our tires. Our left front wore down at about twice the rate as the...

    According to this print out I received from my alignment shop, it's supposed to be reset after an alignment. I can only assume this is to allow the system to function properly. I have no CEL lit.Does anyone know if this is true or not? Any Toyota branded documentation stating so? I didn't...

    Hey guys it's me again.. ahhaha I have been in contact and working with SPC for a month now and they believe they have come up with an adjustable rear shim to correct our rear toe alignment which was previously incorrectable. We are looking for someone in the Colorado area to be a guinea pig...
