    All, First time poster here. Very happy 2011 Sienna owner, but ran into an interesting situation today I was hoping to find an answer to. I was pulling our van into the garage after a short tip and felt something fall and hit the drivers side carpet. After parking, I looked on the floor...

    Twice the fastener holding my rear window vents has come loose, so this time I figured out how to fix it (hopefully) for good. First, look around for the screw that holds the retainer from the inside, it is probably in the rear storage area or under the rear seat. It is a black screw with a...

    Does anyone happen to have the dimensions (head size, thread diameter, length) of the mounting bolt that attaches the ABS speed sensor to the steering knuckle? I seem to have misplaced mine and I need to buy a replacement, but I can't find this info anywhere. I've even checked the workshop...

    Soooo.... replace the Alternator-A/C belt a week or so ago and the wife had been complaining that it still squealed like a banshee - and I've heard it a few times and it did! Checked belt tension, about 1/2 inch of flex -seemed about right. Decided to tighten up the tension bolt a bit more -...

    I have a 2004 Sienna that I bought from small dealer back in 2010. Now that the mileage is 150K, decided to change the plugs but to my surprise, there is no bolts attached in the back, the firewall bolts. Can someone give me the part number or size of the bolts? I've seen from youtube that the...

    I am trying to replace the front valve cover gasket on my 2005. The procedure has been documented in other threads except for one detail regarding the bolts [as far as i can tell]. There are approximately 6 to 8 10mm cover bolts and 2 or 3 that look like a stud with an inverted torx head on...

    Hi all My 08 LE has the 6-disc CD stacker and it got jammed recently (wouldn't eject or play any discs). Found a youtube video showing how to remove jammed discs and did the job with no real dramas. Well, except that I lost one of the four CD player mounting bolts down inside the console and...

    I have a 98 Sienna and I've been replacing parts in the front suspension to stop a knocking noise. Last weekend I removed the stabilizer bar to replace the bushings (it was hard to see if they were bad). The two nuts on the drivers side were no problem. When I got to the passenger side one of...

    Hi all: I just did the timing belt job on my 2004 Sienna at 108k miles. Changed the water pump, seals and idler pulleys along with it. The main complication was that one of the long engine mount bolts sheared off in place and drilling it out was a pain. This made it take a few days instead of...

    I am replacing the Rack and Pinion on a 2004 Toyota Sienna and am having problems removing the bolts that hold the Rack to the Body. The problems I am facing are 1) the amount of space I have to work with and 2) getting the bolts loose because apparently the factory tightens them way beyond what...

    Hi Guys, My 98 XLE's been giving me grief. Here's one of the issues I'm having. I changed the ball joint on the weekend. I had to remove the caliper in order to do this job. When reinstalling the caliper, I noticed a small leak at the brake line banjo bolt. I checked that the copper...

    I was doing a favor for a friend of mine on his '98 or '99 Sienna by changing his radiator coolant. After undoing the lower radiator hose, radiator drain and front engine drain cock I went to the bottom-rear engine drain cock to open that. I just put a 14mm socket on a 12" extension from...

    I've noticed a few of you guys have them on. I'm looking for simple bolt on with no welding involved. There's not many threads on this, the one I found referred to a japanese "BUY.COM" site that sells it for the ESTEEMA but they no longer mail international.

    We had some running issues recently with the van, and the wife took in for a vehicle inspection. The van has 235000 km, so there was a concern that it might need major work. Turns out the problem was that there has never (at least to my knowledge) ever had a tune up (wow - this isn't anything...

Leather seats are shiny new clean thanks to YouTube advice of Scrubbing Bubbles and brush for deep cleaning (but be SURE to use Mother's Leather Conditioner afterwards). The tranny got...
