I have a scion xA and just hit 240,000 this week! It’s still chuggin along. It was my first car when I bought it from Toyota in 2004. It’s 2024 and I’m just now starting to add things to it 😅
i have 1 2006 xb with 283k miles on it, its been in the family since it came from the dealership back in 06,my grandpa gave it to me back when i was 16
I still have my 2008 with a manual transmission my daily, it's a little over 200k miles now and it is still going strong. Bought it new at the dealer since 2008. Around 100k miles something Toyota replaced the short block for me for free due to burned oil. Other than that it has been very reliable. Just a week ago I had to replace the rack and pinion rack assembly and rear bearing hubs. What can you say it's over 200k miles. Always use Mobil 1 oil since day one. I used to have a first gen, didn't like it due to lack of power. Traded in for 2008 and loved it. Especially with the manual transmission.
420,800 miles on my 2006 xb, have driven it 260,000 miles since 2018, engine ant trans no problems, replaced water pump, injectors, alternator, wheel bearings, that's it.
My 2015 xb has AC problems too. It takes a long time to start cooling, about 15-20 mins. But when I accelerate onto a highway, going into high RPM, it starts cooling faster. I think it maybe a ac compressor problem rather than evaporator core. For other mods, you should get a broadway convex mirror ~$20. Really helps with visibility.
I have a red 2013 xb and be aware that you'll end up burning oil eventually. I have 150,000 and it started at 130,000. Sooo check that oil regularly. Otherwise its been pretty reliable, never left me stranded (except a battery which was my fault) in the 13 years i had it
Watch my video on this issue. You can mostly resolve it with a Berrymans B12 cylinder soak. I've done it on 3 of these and had very impressive results. My 09 used a quart every 300 miles. Now about a quart every 5000. Actually a little less. I went almost 6k recently and it used about a quart.
My blue 2015 just hit over 60k miles. I do like those rear lights. Did those Siberian bushings soften the ride out at all. I've always found the Xb to have a harsh suspension for road bumps. I want a cushier ride over the road, and I'm probably close to the time to swap out the shocks/struts, so I'm looking for things that will soften the ride. That's the only reason I've avoided the sway bar.
@@joefog964 the sway bar and the Siberian bushings tightened everything up when cornering. I didn’t notice any more stiffness in the ride, but new shocks will probably make it stiffer. Mine is uncomfortably bouncy with new front struts at 80k and original rear shocks at 108k.
Enjoyed your Video. I owned a 2006 & 2008 XB. First New Cars 👉I payed cash for. (2006 was 14K in 2005) ( 2008 was 18K in 2007 ) Cheap enough to pay cash......And my 2021 Highlander AWD Hybrid platnum was 58K cash 2020. My wife and I had to split the cost 38K & her 20K. Love them All. I gave the 2008 XB to my Brother as it did not get driven enough. Cars go down hill if they sit. I changed the oil every 3K miles. Toyota replaced the Rings as a Recall. I told them it was using oil and they tried to put extra oil in it and sealed it so I couldn't check it. When I asked them if they just put extra in it. they got scared I caught them when I asked to check it. They said the factory put the wrong rings in on some of the years of XBs. What I disliked on that car was the Projector lights gave very poor lights. The halogen lights got to hot and burnt the coating on the headlight housing. I tried LEDs that helped very little. I have low profile 19" BMW wheels with Tires in my Garage If you would like them. They are $$$$ Black VOX (10 spoke) chrome rims. I bought two cameras with a two view mirror for the XB and never put them in. My Daughter is now using on her M-Benz Sprinter Van. I wanted to mount the tiny camera in each of the small speaker boxes on the door. So they stay inside pointing to the blind spot on each side. And have the Monitor Mirror on the dash. Special Mirror that images could be fliped. I had a HUD (Heads up Display) on the Dash that projected on windshield > Speed, RPMs, Gas, It was great Cost me $35.00. The Factory one on my Hylander gives posted speed limits also. I would hate to be without it now. Make sure you keep the (Oil changed) and (all Air filters) ( Life Blood to car ) All the new Cars are loaded down with Oxygen sensors all over the Engine. They get dirty you will pay dearly, . Even over filling your gas tank can knock out a sensor and pump. Replace PVC valve, and Gas Cap if you start having any trouble. Cheap Fix. Toyota will replace them after charging you for stuff you never needed.
You mentioned the driver side sun visor. I had same problem. It was caused by me having one of those pouches to keep your driver license and registration strapped to the visor. The visor has an internal rachet (the click noise) that keeps it in place when pushed to the top. Appears the additional space caused by the add on kept it right on the rachet click spot. To fix it had to order a new one, got it from online toyota of colorado springs. It doesnt have that rachet click and fixed it grate but pricey, $80. Easy to put in, you can find another video about snap the plate on top outward then it pulls out. Tricky to get it back in tight and now it won't rotate to left but does stay in place fine. Probably because I did not push the insert in all the way.
LOL at the transmission/speed. That's why for me, "It's not a racecar, it's a bass car!" I've NEVER heard someone else mention the A-pillars! I've had more than a few occasions where I didn't see a pedestrian on the curb (luckily without any incidents). But that is DEFINITELY a thing with these (Oh and I'm getting ready to change the engine because of the oil consumption...be happy you were unaffected!)
@@DaBadNewz Yeah i think the A pillars are a personal thing for me, but always something to be mindful of. Mine has burned oil in the past, but it’s inconsistent. Have you tried out a piston soak? Apparently it helps reduce consumption
@@thebluexb unfortunately I think I wasn’t aware of the piston soak until it was too late. It’s not completely Toyota’s fault, I was kinda nonchalant about checking oil in between changes, and then spent WAAAAY more time “monitoring the situation” than trying to do anything about it…then it got worse! (Imagine that) Lesson Learned!
We have 4 of these. 2 5 speeds and two autos. The 2008 looks like a 2.5 as it's wearing the parts from a 2012 xB that a tree fell on. The 2012 runs and drives and legal, but it's wearing all the crap parts from the 2008 and the interior is in my black 2009. The 2012 crushed car has a lift and big tires on it. Fun car. It only has 80k miles. The last one we have is a 2013 10 Series. Unique gray color for those. Only 2300 made. It, the 09 and the 08 all burned a lot of oil. I solved it with Berryman's b12 piston soaks. The 09 uses a quart every 5600 miles now vs 300 miles. The 08 uses no detectable oil. I just did the 13. It has 200k miles on it.
The early and late year 2AZFE engines didn't burn oil. I used to have a 2003 Toyota Camry that had over 250,000 miles on that engine and it used a half a quart every 5,000 MI . That is quite acceptable. The mid-year engines that had the first generation of the low tension oil rings were the ones that would burn oil, but that was a problem if you used the extended oil change intervals. If you used a good quality synthetic motor oil and change the oil every 4000 to 5000 miles they would not usually develop an oil burning issue either. They fixed that problem with the revised piston design and the later versions of the engine stop having the oil burning issue. Your car has the later version of the engine.
@@thatcarguy1UZ Yes, this is partly true! The earlier engines were better, especially those made between 2004-2006. Unfortunately, even after the revisions, oil burning problems persist. The TSB covers engines made up to 2015, so theoretically, every 2nd Gen xB can burn oil according to Toyota, including mine.
I have solved the oil burning with Berrymans b12 cylinder soaks. Using less than a quart in 5k changes. Was using a quart every 300 miles. No joke. Just FYI, I changed my oil regularly and used full synthetic since I bought it in 2010 with 31k miles. It still developed the problem.
@@oreally8605 unfortunately, that isn’t true. They revised some things, but 2012-2015 are still included in the TSB and have the potential to burn oil.
@thebluexb I stand corrected, however mine doesn't burn oil and I've never heard of the 13, 14, and 15 burning like the 2008-2010. I'm taking your word for it- Thanks
Not true. We have a 2013 xB 10 series. Used about a quart every 300 miles. Solved though with Berryman's soak. Only 2015s should be unaffected. Our 2008 has a 2011 engine. It started using a fair amount at 200k (on that engine). Solved also with Berrymans. I have a video you should check out.
Got a 2014 and love it. Although the headliner rattle can drive me up the wall! lol it needs to be replaced. I really wish it came with a 4WD option like the Rumion has in Japan. So far my add ons have been; mud guards, bug guard, window vent shades, led everything, rear bumper protector, front TRD sway bar, K&N short ram intake, lowering springs, and I used to have a weapon R header and Borla dual exhaust, but removed them for a quieter ride. I also replaced the springs back to OEM since I was bottoming out a lot lol 1.5F & 2.5R drop will do that
Watch my video on Berryman's B12 treatment. Solved it for the most part on three xBs I own. 09 used 1 qt every 300 miles at 225 k. I did 3 treatments at 3k intervals. Now using about a quart every 5600 miles. I usually change at 5k.
I've taken my 2008 2 times from Maryland to Texas and New Mexico where I'm from. Just recently a cylinder finally broke. I'm sooooo sad. It is a manual and I prefer it. Over 145,000 mi. Burned through oil.
My 15 doesn’t burn oil. I have a 5 speed, pretty quick, too. I love it. Cool Army Rock (the brown) color. My only gripe is the low roof. Seeing above. Like traffic light, is a bitch. The Broadway mirror helped with back pillars. The fuel economy is so so. I’ll keep it a very long time! I love the interior, gauges, seat material design, space, good handling, and the 5 speed manual makes it more efficient as well as engaging.
2015 should be safe on oil usage. That's the only safe year from 07 till then. I have 4 of these. 3 have used a lot of oil, but mostly solved by Berryman's B12 cylinder soaks. They hardly use any at all now. The 4th one only has 80k, so right now it uses none.
I love Scion xBs! I first had a few first gens and now have a 2013 10 series. Do you have a link to where you purchased the tail lights? Also, I’m either thinking of getting the HPS short ram intake or the TRD cold air intake. There are videos to purchase each part separately to save money. Is your xB lowered? I was thinking of adding the rear sway bar, front strut bar, and TRD lowering springs. It’s my daily so I don’t want too harsh of a ride. Mine currently has 136K and counting. I upgraded the wheels and tires to Motegi Flow Form wheels with Conti tires. Keep up the great work with the xB content!
Thanks! Imported the taillights from Japan. Either intake would be great! Mine isn’t lowered, I’m happy with the stock ride height. The TRD strut bar is discontinued, but you can still get a DC Sports bar, although I’ve heard they don’t make much difference in handling. The rear sway bar is amazing! I have a video on it if you’d like to check it out! 😊
@@thebluexb Do you happen to have the name of the business where you imported them from? Thinking of getting myself a pair. Also, I like that you changed out the shifter knob. Was it an easy process and any places where you recommend I can purchase shifter knobs?
09 scion xb close to 120,000 manual transmission. Running well doing regular oil maintenance every 5K. I just replaced the sparkplugs and also just dropped $1600 to replace the clutch and flywheel, trans fluit replaced for the 1st time. I always have an issue with 3rd gear I have to be really careful to shift to 3rd gear... Anyone having similar issues?
grinding? Our 08 did it a lot when we first got it at 160k shifting into 4th. Sometimes 3rd. It seems to have mostly repaired itself though since that time. Currently at like 307,000.
I have a 2011 corolla s coming to 230,000 miles soon. Not that much issues but suspension is bumpy now compared to when new. I like the yellow fog lights.. I got yellow auxito bulbs myself for mines. I’m looking to get another newer car either a yota or a scion xd or xb series .. lowest mileage on scion as much possible and seen one xb like yours at 54k miles in a .. mehh a burgundy color. I’ve actually test drove an xb back in 2011 and seems very nice and though it was a scion.. it didn’t qualify to get the “before” sticker price with my moms employer on a Toyota (yea she consigned my credit was like fair).. so ended up getting the corolla instead.
2015 shouldn't have the oil burning issue by the way. My xB, my wife's, and the 2012 are slow for the AC to come on. So is the Lexus RX I have. This is common. But the going warm at idle is either low refrigerant or something else.
My mother has had one forever, drives the heck out of that thing. It was a mystery where all the oil went for a while - till I read up on them. They def burn it but hey it's a good vehicle nonetheless....
Watch my video on Berrymans b12 cylinder soak. It will clear it up to a large degree in most cases. Worth a try. About $12. You may have to do it more than once to get optimal results, but it does work. Has for 3 of mine.
I'm Sorry, Not sorry. I KNOW I see your lips moving, though you SURE sound like one of those BOT voices!!! Just my observation. PS::: If 'That Dude in Blue finds out... he might get angry. L.o.L. I dunno..

2015 shouldn't have the oil burning issue by the way. My xB, my wife's, and the 2012 are slow for the AC to come on. So is the Lexus RX I have. This is common. But the going warm at idle is either low refrigerant or something else.
@@theoriginaljimmykicker all xBs from 2008-2015 have the potential to burn oil according to Toyota’s TSB
I have a 2012 and still love it! Where can I buy that storage organizer? @08:35.
Got it on Amazon!
What happend to the black wheel center caps?
They all finally fell off 😂
@@thebluexb Aw, that upgrade was my fave. Would it still be worth it if there was fix to keep from falling out.
@@ChrizMagadia mine too haha, but still worth it, they stayed on for about three years!
I've had 2 XB 2nd gens. I love them. Can't get the same interior space will m with the size
My mother has had one forever, drives the heck out of that thing. It was a mystery where all the oil went for a while - till I read up on them. They def burn it but hey it's a good vehicle nonetheless....
Watch my video on Berrymans b12 cylinder soak. It will clear it up to a large degree in most cases. Worth a try. About $12. You may have to do it more than once to get optimal results, but it does work. Has for 3 of mine.
less oil burning because toyota fixed it 2013+, on older model there was a TSB that put those fixes out.
They didn’t fix it completely, the TSB includes ‘13-15. It’s simply less common on the newer models.
It should power by 1.8 or 2.0 Corolla engine
They are available in Japan, but would be quite slow. The 2.0 wasn’t released.
Bro i think you need a new Compressor. I had the same issue. It was the compressor..
Who’s charging so much to do an AC evaporator? Avoid Dealers. Still love mine!
from what ive heard the first gen xb's are a lot better than the second gen xb's also it seems the first gen has more visibility out of the windows
They're completely different cars, so it's purely personal preference!
@@thebluexb yeah
Replace the radio with Apple Carplay/Android Auto. Don't look back.
I'm Sorry, Not sorry. I KNOW I see your lips moving, though you SURE sound like one of those BOT voices!!! Just my observation. PS::: If 'That Dude in Blue finds out... he might get angry. L.o.L. I dunno..
I’m sorry, Not sorry. Your comment doesn’t make sense but i heard his video just fine… just my observation, no BOT voices heard on my end.
