| I would go RAV4 and sienna. For longevity, go with those Toyota’s over the Honda’s. And definitely don’t get the odyssey, at all costs. For best years, see below: (RAV4) (Sienna) | |||||

| Kerem is correct and I agree with his assessment. Also, something to keep in mind : the 2021 Toyota sienna is the beginning of an all-new generation and it’s not recommended to buy from the first several years of a new generation if you plan to keep the vehicle long term just because of bugs/kinks that need to be worked out. Plus why be a guinea pig for them? (They are not even paying you to test for them. 🙂 ). Second, it’s hybrid with CVT and although Toyota makes the best hybrids around (and their CVT is OK) I still strongly recommend going with a re ... | |||||

| ... he's in Rhode Island visiting family. 1. I'm considering purchasing a small compact cargo van. I'm considering a 2019 and newer Nissan NV200 or a 2019 and newer Ford Transit Connect. Although I'm a loyal Toyota and Honda fan, my options are very limited and these small cargo vans are great for my needs despite their reliability is so poor. I plan on bringing any vehicle I find to you to be inspected and maintained. Do you feel both are poor considerations and which of the 2 have a more reliable engine and transmission? I would look at something else. If ... | |||||
| Answer to: Toyota sienna hybrid or non hybrid | 20Relevance | 3 years ago | Kaizen | Submit Your Question HERE | |
| It depends on your driving habits and the price difference of the sienna and Hybrid sienna. Assuming a slight premium price of the hybrid. If you do mostly city driving and some freeway driving, or a mix of both the Hybrid makes more sense. If you do exclusive highway driving, the gas sienna makes more sense. If the hybrid is outrageously more expensive, the gas will suffice. | |||||

| Answers to your questions: 1.) Go with the regular gas version sienna. More mechanics can work on regular vs. hybrid and if you keep it long enough (150,000+ miles) it can get very pricey to repair the hybrid (versus regular gas). 2.) Hands down, go Toyota sienna (gas). It’s better to go FWD, if you can, over AWD - less issues and repairs (and $$$ to keep running) over time. If you plan to keep for as long as possible until wheels fall off, go Toyota sienna. I would stay away, at all costs, from the Chrysler or Kia. If you don’t believe me about the ... | |||||

| Hello Scott I have a 2010 sienna that recently had a problem with the air conditioning. The LED light on the AC switch started to blink. Push the button again and the LED blinking stops. So it happened several times like that. I had the mechanic checked out and told me the AC compressor was dead and needed a new one. I did not believe him. so I did not use the AC until a week later and when I turned on the AC button again it worked fine; However, what I am noticing is when I am driving at night time, the AC compressor works fine and no blinking LED on the s ... | |||||

A sampling of their platforms include: TNGA-B (subcompact) Yaris, CHR, Yaris Cross TNGA-C (compact) Corolla, Corolla Cross, Prius… TNGA-F (body on frame / trucks) Land Cruiser, Sequoia, Tundra… TNGA-K Camry, RAV4, Venza, Highlander, sienna. Their Lexus brand also share these same platforms, depending on the size and scope of the vehicle. They also have a few more platforms that I didn’t list. With that said, some models haven’t even made the transition yet. T ... | |||||

| Scotty you mentioned the problem with the sienna steering column. Is this the splined area developing play? I have a noise that may be suspension related which creaks on turns, but just wondering if you could expand on the sienna steering column problem. I see one guy (on YouTube) with an older sienna replacing the central jointed part of the column. | |||||

| @mountianmanjoe c'mon man I'm just trying to help we are doing sienna vs Sprinter I may have assumed a few statements here and there but still I stick to my original stance: Don't buy a Sprinter van for personal use and try to get 300k miles out of it, when you have the Toyota sienna. I get overwhelmed when I get asked this many questions when I feel the outcome of my statement is correct. Even you said the Sprinter isn't a good choice for the purpose of the Oddysey/Sienna | |||||

| if you guys were younger, I’d say stick it out with the MDX and save your money. But you guys are older, retired, so you might as well enjoy your money and vehicles while you can! The Toyota sienna Hybrid shares the same platform and engine with the hybrid versions of the RAV4, Highlander, and Venza. The engine has been in use since 2017, so it has had some time for the kinks to be worked out. While I am not certain of the electric components, I suspect them to be very similar to other Toyota hybrids that have been on the market longer. So while the Sie ... | |||||

However after watching your video I feel I can do it myself. Unfortunately, I keep reading about engine temperature to be at the correct range to change the fluid and measure the correct level after refilling. My only guess is t ... | |||||
