Thanks guys.

Window stickers can be printed for a modest fee at Monroney Labels

Watch out for websites that promises free ones. They are sometimes scams or have catches.

Or, you could print the important three or so pages from the 2013 Sienna sales brochure and visually check to see what features the vehicle has: https://www.auto-brochures.com/makes/Toyota/Sienna/Toyota_US Sienna_2013.pdf

If you're looking at an L or LE trim and require the tow prep package, you'll have to visually look for its components. Look for the engine oil cooler on the front of the engine. It can be difficult to see. There's a forum thread that shows what it looks like.

The various packages are fairly easy to identify. Tell us the trim (L, LE, SE, XLE, Limited) and we might be able to provide more specific information.

Don't bother using the VIN lookup on the Toyota website to tell you about the Sienna. It became inaccurate sometime in the past and no longer gives accurate information about trim levels, packages and options. I know that it no longer works for our 2012 Prius or for the 2014 Sienna I recently sold but it might be accurate for newer Toyotas.

Hey @Hansenluis , welcome to the forums, as @Geezer1 mentioned you can get the window sticker from Monroney Labels they been providing window sticker for a long period of time already, I have another website called DetailVehicleHistory, I actually bought the report and window sticker from them (I also share it in the group in my previous thread) I still have 1 sticker credit left which I didn't use it yet, I'm not going to use it anytime soon, you can give me the VIN number and I can get the window sticker for you for free. Let me know
Cheers

Thanks @Geezer1 for the details, @Costa ray Thanks for helping me out, here is the VIN number: 5TDKK3DC8DS304446 , I really appreciate it, Customer said this car has no packages installed.

Although I said that the Toyota VIN lookup has not been reliable, it does indicate that this Sienna LE has: "TO Towing Prep Package Factory".

Here's a link to "superman moderator" fibber2's information on how to identify the tow prep package on Sienna prior to 2017: 2013 Toyota Sienna LE Transmission Oil Cooler

And here's a link to the Toyota VIN lookup page: Vehicle Specification | Toyota Owners

Maybe Toyota's VIN lookup is partially accurate. I just now looked up the VIN for the 2014 Limited I recently sold and it still shows only one of its three packages and no longer shows any of the port installed accessories.

I checked my VIN yesterday and don’t see the towing package, but I do have the engine oil cooler. Though I also read at some rear in the 3rd gens Toyota just started added the oil cooler as default, instead of making it a towing package.

The VIN lookup said I have active head restraints, but there’s certainly no active SRS component in my headrests.

There is NO WAY to check packages in the VIN. It has not been since the change to the new format happened back in the 80's. Here is all that the VIN will tell you. And where you see it say the 4th -8th are brand, engine size and style, style only means "coupe, sedan, pickup, minivan" etc. Not LE, XLE or Limited, towing or anything else.

You can take the VIN and plug it in to Monroneylabels.com and they will print out a replica of how your van was delivered to it's first owner.

 

[jseyfert3]

Toyota could use the serial number to lookup a particular vehicle and tell you the packages, if they so chose to do so.

Mazda has a program to do this for at least their Miata owners. I'm not sure that it extends to other model but I dno't see why they wouldn't. With the VIN number they can tell you exactly how your Miata left the factory in Hiroshima. This includes things like port added foglights on early NBs but not things that were dealer installed. The Monroney sticker includes everything on the car when it was delivered to the original owner regardless of the installer.

You can either call them or use their online Chat app to get this info.

The tow prep package was standard for 2014 per the brochure which can't always be trusted: https://www.auto-brochures.com/makes/Toyota/Sienna/Toyota_US Sienna_2014.pdf

But then, the tow prep package became "less standard" for 2015! That's why it's best to check for the engine oil cooler to see if a Sienna has the tow prep package.

The VIN lookup never showed the tow prep package when it was standard - only when it was an option and the vehicle has it.

Your Sienna really does have what Toyota called active headrests. It's nothing fancy ... just a mechanical feature. Here's a video about it:

Huh. I figured there’d be some sort of hinge at the top of the seat, but they just rotate the headrest through the seat fabric. Thanks!

AFAIK, all VAG and for that matter German vehicles have a Data Card associated with the vehicle which is the list of every factory installed component/package.That is one way the vehicle assembly is marked complete before being allowed to leave the floor. I have had it printed for all our vehicles, owned or leased. Some dealers give you a hard time printing it for you but most will happily oblige. It runs around 12-15 pages but is very handy and takes all guess work out if you ever decide to sell it.

When we purchased our van, the Toyota dealer or the parts guy had no idea what I was talking about and kept referring me to the window sticker. I didn't push for it but am sure something like this exists for every brand. Whether Toyota and others choose to publish and share it with customers is a different matter. Worth checking with the dealer.

My 2020 Silverado had a build sheet that listed all specs and packages on the specific truck we bought. This was separate from and in addition to the window sticker. Any Chevy dealer should be able to pull up the build sheet for a new Chevy. But Chevy does custom build-to-order vehicles, Toyota doesn’t (currently), so Toyota may handle things differently.

Actually had a tiny issue with my Silverado. It had a specific tow package on the build sheet that had the ability to add two wired trailer cameras (rear view and inside trailer), that could be viewed from inside the truck, either while driving or while in reverse (that camera on the back of the trailer was SO NICE for backing a large camper into a campsite). When I got the truck home I realized that the truck had a 7-pin connector and along side the 7-pin had a 4-pin connector. This was the standard trailer connector for Silverados now, handy cause you don’t need a 7 to 4 pin adapter for small trailer. Issue was that the towing package that supported trailer cameras was supposed to have a trailer connector with two camera plugs in place of the 4-pin connector. Contacted the dealer and they confirmed the truck was supposed to have been built with that connector (it was on the build sheet after all). So they expedited shipped me the correct connector for no cost, and I swapped it out in 15 minutes, as truck had the wiring for the cameras capped off at the trailer connector, so just plug and play swap to get it running. Dealer would have swapped it but they were 90 minute drive from me so I preferred to just swap myself and they accommodated me. Anyway, key point is Chevy does track every part that is installed or is supposed to be installed on a particular vehicle, and it’s surprising Toyota doesn’t seem to have something similar for each vehicle easily available. Especially when they aren’t currently doing build-to-order and just batch build a lot of a particular build, so it’s even easier to track (though from what I’ve read for the OP’s year they were doing build-to-order vehicles).

@Hansenluis I'm Sorry for the delay, here is the window sticker, have a look my friend, incase anyone interested you can get the window sticker from here Toyota VIN Decoder.

 

[Hansenluis]

@Costa ray , Wow thank you so much, I really appreciate it, I confirm with owners and he said this car has not much packages installed, yes seems accurate, thanks again. You're the man.

Toyota’s website has a section where you can get some details about your car via VIN. It doesn’t provide window sticker but it’s free.
