    At a loss. Changed the timing belt, water pump, power steering and A/C belts yesterday. Engine fired right up, ran with heater on full hot until thermostat opened and topped off coolant. Then switched to A/C and it blows hot. A/C worked the day before I did the service. Both radiator fans...

    According FSM for the timing belt replacement, remove the wiper arm assembly, wiper motor, and its mount bracket assembly as well to gain more access for the removal of the rear camshaft sprocket pulley and cam seal! Remove upper side engine mount in one piece and ground wire attachment to...

    I just read through the "Sticky: Timing Belt Change" thread. It all looks fairly straight-forward, but I have some follow-up questions. I thought about posting in the sticky thread, but the most recent post is over a year ago. My timing belt experience is: 1988 Mazda 323, 1993 Mazda Protege...
  12. Sienna Care & Maintenance
    Hello, my 2006 Sienna has 53K miles - the owners manual does not mention replacing the transmission fluid? Also, since I am not near 90K miles - but coming up on 7 years should I have the timing belt replaced? Thanks.

    As stated does my Sienna have a belt? AND is it an interference engine? If so I am at 57K and guess will have to look at changing it sometime soon

    So just finished my fourth changing out my timing belt for the fourth time. The Original was changed at 106,000 by the dealer. In june of this year my wife was driving the van and it had 145k on it. Timing belt mysteriously frayed away and ended up shifting the timing by elongating the belt...

    We bought the van brand new in Dec. 03 and it only has around 67k miles on it right now. We're going on a trip from CT to Washington, DC on Thanksgiving. I made an appointment for tomorrow to replace the timing belt for $299+tax and I'd like to opt out to replace the water pump. Since I never...

    Just picked up my 2004 Sienna XLE from the Toyota dealer. I had the timing belt, water pump, and drive belts replaced. I figured I was flirting with potential disaster after reading the other post where someone lost theirs around 120k. The total cost for parts and labor was right at $600...
