I drive an 06 Sienna and have never had any issues or codes in 255k miles. The sliding doors both broke but I'm not lazy like many so I just operate them manually.
My 2005 Sienna just had the ignition coil #4 replaced after noticing engine idled rough and losing power when accelerating. The car has been reliable over 17 years and 318K miles. This has been the most serious issue. Previously serious issues were 1 starter and 1 alternator.
Tengo 12 años con una sienna 2005 y jamás me ha dado problemas es una muy buena camioneta familiar saludos desde guanajuato México
I have a 2007 Sienna with 133k miles that i bought new. I just changed one of the 02 senors and have fixed the power door over 10 years ago. No problems yet with the MAF or coils or evap. Great van!
I had a 2007 and never had a single problem .It was the best family van we ever had.
My parents have the 07 with 325k miles. Engine had an engine overhaul at 300k due to a broken spring (didn't drop the valve). Been a good vehicle
I currently have a used 2007. So far only thing that's gone bad after a year and a half with it is the break light sensor went out, but it was super easy to just pop off and swap out, no tools needed.
Still have a 07 from new, 0 breakdowns and problems so far and haven't encountered any issues from the video but it's got pretty low km's. Hoping to drive this thing for at least another 10 years.
the fact these are very minor things that can be done in under 30 mins is pretty insane, these will last forever for sure.
The power sliding door is a 3 to 4 hour job with the pre-assembled cable unit. Otherwise, it will take at least 5 to 6 hours to complete one door.
@@tomkoolman Exactly. And replacing the three coils in the back with the valve cover gasket and the spark plugs? Two hours.
Unless like my 2004 Siena XLE that went through 2 transmission failures . 1 at 73000 miles, another at 130000 miles. AC compressor, new radiator, the power door issue. Liked it, but unloaded it after the second transmission replacement. They're not all great.
I had an 04 Santa Fe LX for a few years before I got my 06 Sienna(it was free) and overall I liked my Hyundai more. The reliability is there in my Toyota but servicing it overall is not that fun. Lots of cheap plastic everywhere.
@@phw2274 first year of that gen , you never buy first year
My brother is giving me his 2004 Sienna and I'll be damned if it doesn't have the first 4 problems 😂😂😂
My top ones: steering midshaft, lower control arm bushings, driver side door check welds, driver's side door latch welds, radiator cracks.
it's generalized. But actually 2004-2006 maintenance is different from 2007-2010
Two of my brother in laws have sienna’s. One is a 2006 and the other one a 2012. They’ve own their sienna’s for about 6-7 years give or take. Never had a serious issue beside small maintenance like oil change, spark plugs, etc.
Outstanding presentation. 4 of 5 problems you talked about I have had. I have a very good and honest mechanic but this presentation really helps me understand better. Thanks for putting it on
That was very well done. Dead on from my experience with our 04 Sienna. Although I can't complain too much at nearly 300k miles.
add Cracked dashes and AC compressors as well. Still wouldnt trade my 2004 for a new one.
You are a very good teacher, keep it up sir.
Looking for a 2007, thanks for this information
Exhaust flex pipes. Rear passenger outside door handles, sticky rear manual slide doors on ice cold days, pulsing brakes, radiator plastic sides cracked, ... still love it tho!!!!
I have one with 600k haven't had any problems other than regular maintenance
Wow that's awesome. And I thought mine had alot of miles on it at 215
600k?! 🤯...👍 nice! My 2005 is at 251k so this gives me hope. 🙆🏻♀️Just acquired it at 249K from my sister (original owner) and so far had to replace the original starter motor and gas cap which triggered the check engine light. All's good now and 🤞 she'll run smoothly for at least another 10k before dipping into the pockets.
Wow! Is the 600k miles or kilometers? Has the timing chain been replaced?
@@nhung7592 Is that 251K miles or kilometers? Was the timing chain replaced or still original?
What a great explanation/ I own a 04 and this has been exactly correct in all the issues- Thanks for Your
very well done... wow so clear and simple
Lawd don't let Scotty Kilmer see this lol Toyota doesn't have any problems....
🤣🤣 nice one!
Lol
hilarious! we still love scotty haha 🤣
Never had a single one of these problems on my 08 awd. Surprised you didn't mention the oil cooler hose recall
Very useful info, thanks
Door cables and door actuators for sure. The other REALLY bad part of these cars is the spark plugs are impossible to get to----it's an all day job. Found the belts were really hard to replace as well.
Very good know and be prepared for. Thanks for the video!
5 months later, did any of these problems happen to yours? any different problems?
GREAT VIDEOS! WE NEED MORE 2019 RAM1500 VIDEOS. COOLANT, BREAK FLUID CHANGES AND BATTERY.
The drive shaft and transmission seemed to have a little issues. But for the most part they drive really good.
Thank you for sharing. I learned a lot . Stay safe.
I’ve had a 2008 Sienna for just over 2 years now. Have already replaced an O2 sensor, mode door actuator, both blend door actuators, heater core, crumbly plastic heater hose t-fittings, and power sliding door cable. Fingers crossed I can avoid needing the MAF sensor, or Evap Canister anytime soon.
Great video!! Thanks!
I've had a 2008 Sienna since new (now 165k) and have not had a single one of these issues but a slew of other ones.
Both sliding doors for me. Not TOO bad to replace, but if you mess it up once, it’s a waste of 3+ hrs and $160 part. Replacement part is cheap quality if it’s off Amazon, as expected. But I couldn’t bear to pay double for OEM and still risk messing it up.
Thanks
We are the original owners of out 2006 Toyota Sienna LE FWD with 193k miles. Common problems so far is power sliding doors, wheel bearings, lower control arms, and leaking valve cover gasket. We recently changed out the driver CV Axle as well. This car definitely needs more maintenance then our other cars but it constantly hauls 6-7+ people everyday and picks up our restaurant supplies at Costco weekly.
What are your other cars?

@@CJ-fh5xq yea of course it’s gonna take more maintenance then those other cars it has a lot more miles then your other cars and it’s much older then most those cars you named..
All of the sudden when I saw you.
I saw you like John Malkovich..
Thank you for your great videos..
Would you please do a video for MDX Acura 07-09. ?
THANK YOU
Thanks man!!!
had the transmission replaced at 190k due to a bad radiator mixing coolant with transmission fluid
Mine has over 300,000 miles. The only thing that I need to replace on his list is the o2 sensors and the latch actuators in the sliding doors.
Hi! Sir, could you please recommend a 5 seater used car best for uber..
Have you done a video on the motor mount type of PWM vacuum switch valve? I can’t seem to find any decent info on which of the three hoses go where. The switch has a port on top, that I think goes directly to air filter box. Then two ports in back. I think one of those ports is a vent and the other goes to what I believe is called the actuator. It connects to a second vacuum switching valve then the actuator. But I can’t find anything online that definitely tells me which of the two back ports on the PWM vacuum switching value is to vent and goes no where. Seems to be something I should get right on my 2008 Sienna!
I have a 2004 Toyota sienna with 198,000 miles on it. For the last four years I’ve had an engine check light and VSC check light on the mechanics at the dealership have replaced two oxygen sensors and a catalytic converter and still have not fixed the poor gas mileage and engine check lights! About a month ago I cleaned my mass airflow sensor and disconnected the battery to reset the codes. Before I did this my van was averaging about 13 miles per gallon afterword I was getting 23 miles per gallon. But now the lights have come back on and I’m down to getting 13 miles per gallon again!
Did you buy the OEM or off market maf? Buy the Toyota genuine to replace it.
Just had the rad 3:12 replaced in summer of 2023 for some reason my 07 Toyota sienna van blew off the rad filler neck wasn't sure what caused this issue but may have been low antifreeze or air bubbles. Only 117,000 miles still lots of power mechanic said will need new belt tensioner as getting noisy and new gator serpentine belt
New plug wires as for some reason they move and then cause the engine light and Trac light to come on.
VERY common problem that's hard to fix on 2004's: the driver's door check strap cup cracks, causing a popping noise when opening and closing. There was a "recall" years ago but it has lapsed. Cannot buy a replacement cup that should be welded into the door.
it would be kinda nice if you also say roughly how much will it cost for every part
not a word about power sliding door cables corroding out or driver door stopper mount spot welds giving up?
Siennas are great vehicles
My 05 Sienna suddenly started randomly doing the “no crank no start”. One day it will crank up and go but once I turn it off it won’t crank again for 24-48 hours. Now it is not starting at all so I have scheduled appt at dealer.
Only done ignition coils out of that list. Power door cables are more common than those listed. Valley plate coolant leak on the 3.3s. And #1 is probably leaking power steering rack.
Awesome 🤩
My 2007 sienna 230k and runs great but getting rusty here up north
thank you for this useful video. My 2008 Sienna has engine heating issues, I replaced radiator and water pump, but still the coolant does not circulate, the overflow tank is normal temperature and radiator is hot and a bit of coolant evaporated, what could be the issue? Also I bought this used vehicle and now it is coming up with Maintenance minder, what should I get it done in a non expensive fashion
+@skbskb7596 We wouldn't be able to diagnose an issue like that here, you may want to have a local mechanic take a look at it. Thanks for checking us out! 1aau.to/m/Shop-1AAuto-c
It is counterintuitive but dirty filters actually filter our more particles than clean ones. The problem with dirty filters is that at some point they create too much back pressure or break. In manufacturing plants, they sometimes have backpressure gauges to indicate when a filter is too stopped up. Meanwhile the filter is getting better and better at filtering.
The logic.
When a filter is new, they have holes so air can go through. They will catch particles larger than the holes. As particles partially fill some of the holes, they catch some of the smaller particles.
Bottom line, dirty filters are not the cause of MAFs needing cleaning. Of course you do need to change the filter eventually or it will make the make the fuel air ratio too rich.
Should I repair a 2008 sienna with 170k miles that needs wheel bearings, shocks and sway bar links ? Everything else is working great
Mine have 250k miles and still going ok with front shocks and lower triangles replaced
I just got new kyb shocks from rock auto and had a shop replace for 700 total. Wheel bearings are next, I'm guess 700ish for a complete knuckle installed. They seem to last 75-100k.
yes these van can go 300 plus thousand miles
Im not a mechanic but Id say definitely if it were my car. Keep that van out of the junk yard. Too much embodied energy to waste it.
Of course go for it still worth 8k
DO YOU KNOW WHERE IS THE KEY FOB RECIVER/ DCR LOCATED IN 2005 SIENNA?
🙋♂️ ok so today I did some maintenance on a 05 sienna, and when I was replacing the air filter I thought it’d be a good idea to clean the MAF sensor. And of course being a klutz, I some how disconnected one of the 3 air lines that was going to the air filter cover where the MAF sensor is screwed on to, and I heard it release air like when disconnecting an air hose from a compressor (well maybe not THAT loud). I didn’t even clean the MAF sensor, and just out everything back. Turned on the vehicle and let it idle. After like 5 min the RPM dropped to around 500 but the vehicle didn’t stall. I shut it off and tried to turn it back on, nothing. Tried a second time, and now it just stays at 500.
Any suggestions how to fix this blunder??
What about the p0500 I was told it was the electric wiring
@1AAuto How to replace a 2005 Sienna Hazard Switch. Lights work, but I need to maintain holding down the button.
I have an exceedingly silly question...can I add a driver side power sliding motor and such to a 2004 Sienna LE? I know the XLE has it but this LE came with full history and such so I went for it when I got one recently as a temp car till more EV options that fit my needs come on the market. But...not having a power sliding door on this side is becoming an issue...
Love my Sienna, but Yup, yup, yup, yup, and yup
#6 the oil cooler tube
there is a recall on it
Do Mazda 5 2008 please
Should make videos for bmw oil leak problem. Oil leak where has gasket
Does anyone else chug or hesitate at hughway speeds? Mine shakes like a misfire or something while doin 70 down the highway, almost like its running out of gas.
Had the oxygen sensor failure, that's it. 300k.
2006 Sienna with 213,000 miles and one fairly hard front end fender bender that badly tweaked the hood/fender panel alignment,. Haven't had any of these problems. Only issue is severely clouded plastic headlights. Plastic headlights should be banned. My 41 year old truck has glass headlights clear as the day they were made.
Love my '04 Sienna with 223,000. The only problem dont have is the sliding door issue. The sad thing is I haven't found any reputable mechanic to help with these minor issues. I'm always quoted $500 and up before they even look.
+The Thrifting Channel Thanks for the feedback!
Thats a dang shame!!! What city u in? You down South?
What!!! I was quoted 1k for the part.
@@1AAuto What level on the transmission dip stick to top off the transmission fluid? It's not covered in the owners manual.
Good luck! We also have an 04 Sienna in the same mileage range, and we are among the many, many unlucky people who had the front door weld break. Have been quoted $3000 to replace the door. The problem is that the door check no longer works, so the door will swing wider than you set it for, which risks banging into and damaging someone else's vehicle. Toyota was finally forced (by the sheer number of complaints) to acknowledge the design failure and fix these, but we didn't get the notice or have the problem until after the recall had expired.
If the power side doors fail, can you simply open and shut them manually. Will they still lock?
Mine does not open from the inside but does open from the outside, its very heavy! Yes they still lock, manually and with key fob.
You can still open and close them manually, but nowhere near as easily as a manual door. We have a 2004 LE with one manual door and one power door. The manual door is super easy to operate. The power door, with the power shut off to it, is not.
I am using a Toyota sienna 2006 I washed the engine because it's too dirty I covered the alternator thou..but since then I had problems with the car whenever I start the car its vibrate hard and it's not stable..please any help..
I loved my Sienna till we went into a deep freeze two weeks ago here in Iowa. It has many issues now. Please help.

no mention of oil cooler lines and timing cover leaks for the 07-10 models? those are BIG ones.
Sienna is reluctant to restart when the engine is hot (quick restart after running)
No check engine light, no over heating no codes showing.
Engine cools down a bit (10-15 minutes) and it fires right up on the first try.
Very strange… in need of assistance 🙏🙏
Do they have the Toyota 5 speed trans issues like shift delays and jerking?
Toyota: oh those are minor easy fixes they will last forever!
Any other brand: terrible! Never buying one again!
🤦🏻♂️
I liked working on my 04 Santa Fe LX more than my 06 Sienna. The sienna is not the easiest vehicle to maintain, throws you through hoops.
should i stay away from a used Sienna or go with a Honda?
I have an 06 toyota sienna with 62 k miles on it. Got it when it had 51k. The only problem or i dont know if this is normal when turning left or right or some sharp curves it has lots of roll. Can someone let me know if this is normal? And the gas pedal is stiff. Some one get back to me please. Besides that i love the van.
If there is any truth to this, then 1-4 must have stopped at 2003. Only the doors (depending on how much they are used) and roof mounted DVD players is true on 04-09. We service quite a few and only had to change an alternator on one at 160k.
Hey everyone, I've heard that the sienna also have issues with the gear more often.. is it really true and what's the probability of it coming up.... and can it be fixed properly?
I think it was a recall about it so supposed to be fixed
Not true
It's true he didn't know that
What recall?
S 2005 sienna runs and starts fine but every now and then the shifter locks ,there's no power on the windows radio,horn but somehow it still runs not sure if its the computer or the brake switch took it to a few places but they couldn't find the problem?????? When it doesn't have that problem it runs beautifull
The only problem that you illustrated is the coil. I was sure that you would mention the timing belt
my exhaust has always gace me a headache and made me hurt in my belly, ive replaced 2 out of the 3 cats the 3rd is still bad and siince i havent replaced it the other 2 at the engine might be bad again being affected from it i have the suplher smell its not even always the rotten egg its just a weir burnt sulpher smell and something is always caked on the dashboard and the windshiled like some kind of exhaust dust that reaks through the vents its so weird
I got a problem with my 2004 Sienna, maybe someone can help me? Ignition key out - rad fans start working. (Not all the time, it may happens once a day or once a week) They may start any time when car locked and alarmed. Key in, ignition ON - all good. The same thing with day light. May turn ON any time when not in use. Drain battery to zero. I disconnected day light. And disconnect fans plug all the time when not driving. This happens mostly in rain season when wet. Never in dry summer. Any idea? Thanks
Please can I get a sienna 2007 model full option with a 3mz engine please
Anyone have experience their hazard light or all 4 turn signal not turning off?
2005 Toyota sienna
I have a Toyota Sienna 2006. The other day I hit like a rock on the road. It was a loud noise. I sounded serious. Found a leak. Had to replace the radiator but the van started overheating. I had the thermostat and the temperature sensor replaced but still over heating. I was told it could be the water pump or head gasket. I can drive the van for short distances until I see the temperature gauge needle go way up then i pull over and wait for the engine to cool down. Any suggestions?

COULD USE SOME HELP
How about the fact that an 04&05 have a totally diff engine than the rest? One has a belt and one has a chain..
What about the coolant
What about insane oil consumption?
What about the failing Transmissions after 100,000 miles
Can I get a sienna 2007 model please
The sliding door on the river side of my 2004 was not opening all the way. The problem was so simple to fix. The gas door was slightly bent and not closing all the way, leaving the push button slightly open. This causes the safety sliding door lock not to close all the way and blocking the sliding door. All I had to do was slightly bend the cover in towards the push switch and the door slides open normal
+Humberto The Believer Thanks for the feedback!
My 2004 sienna has 230,000 Km and I had to replace radiator 2 times.
Did it mix coolant and transmission fluid together? If so, was there any damage to the transmission?
I was told 2006-2008 sienna have transmission problems. He didn't mention her OR my information is wrong?🤔
Ok so I have an 09 sienna and I have as to replace ignition coil b 3 times in 2 year.. I’ve replaced the spark plug every time and put new wires on it the last time I did it. Here we are 6 months later and it’s giving me the same code. Anyone know why the same ignition coil keeps failing would be a huge help!!
Are you replacing with Denso brand?
Check fuel injectors, spark plug wires, vacuum lines, and fuel delivery system. Most likely your fix will be spark plug wires or fuel injectors.
…at the time of this video estimated cost could range from …. ?
should have been added to each potential problem.
Another thing with mine, is the front power door locks. They're part of the striker, so if you slam the door it'll break.
I have a 2008 and my gas mileage is horrendous as of late. 220 miles per tank!! Ive changes the purge valve, the MAF sensor, the Charcoal canister and have done a crapload of other things as well. Air filter was done today, wasnt that bad. I dont have a clue what to do next. What the heck is going on that my gas mileage is so terrible? Anyone have a clue about this? thanks.
Old spark plugs, ac compressor issues, 02 sensors, bad power steering pump or lower power steering fluid, or a bad cv joint would be my first look.
Use a Techstream scanner to scan any bad codes. Make sure to use Toyota genuine maf .

Basically every vehicle purchase, regardless of its reputation is nearly pure gamble. You'll find both spectrums of reports on every vehicle. Some never had a problem for 15 years and some reportin problems since year 1 on same make and model.
