First of all… Im new to hybrids…
before I take my 2022 sienna XLE into the dealer with my concerns, I wanna bounce it off y’all to see if this is “normal”
when I turn on the van the engine kicks on after a minute or two… I know the engine is “noisy”on these things - but mine sounds pretty loud… and it vibrates to the point where I can sometimes feel it in my feet in the floor board… as I drive it gets quieter… i guess I just didn’t expect so much engine noise.
was that many of y’all’s first impression too coming from a V6? I can get used to it if that’s how it’s supposed to be… just seems like a loud / odd sound for a $50k van.
also… while the engine is running - is the clicking clack sound normal? Almost sounds like valve train noise on an old engine… but of course these are brand new engines… i didn’t expect that much noise either…
I didn’t test drive any other siennas so I have nothing to compare it to. My old V6 never made noises like this… and if it’s something I just need to get used to let me know.
And damn you sure hear the wind noise in these things over 70… don’t you? Didn’t expect that in a $50k van…
let me know. TIA.
