BUY or BUST? - 2013 Toyota Sienna High Miles Review!

[@Robert-lr3wr]

2014 sienna 249,000 miles still going strong

[@titaniumterri9233]

I have a 2015 XLE Sienna with 84K miles; so far replaced radiator at 82K; also battery at 77K. Use primarily for road trips getting 24mpg. Keeping for now.

[@TOBYH]

WE HAVE A 2012 XLE, NO SUNROOF LEAKS, 74 K MILES, HAD TO REPLACE THE WATER PUMP AT 60K, THAT'S IT, JUST AN EXCELLENT VAN, GREAT POWER, STILL LOOKS LIKE NEW, LOVE IT.

[@4th_Gen_Hawk]

My 2014 sienna has over 195,000 and it drives great…

[@subjecttochrist]

I just got a 2012 w 189k mi - it is the 4 cylinder - for $5650. Just needed a family hauler/grocery getter for my wife. Interior needed some love for sure… but seems like a pretty good deal. Just did the spark plugs in about 45 mins. Super “easy” maintenance, and reliability is what our family needs lol

[@JR-zw2vb]

Wowsie, just after our 2008 XLE totalled, got a 2013 XLE. What an upgrade!

[@lean2me]

Have a 2013 LE bought 2nd hand...love it! Used a 2" thick foam panel (4' x 8') to work around the seat railings to get a completely flat floor, huge hauling capacity with the middle row removed and the back seat stowed. Drives like a dream, plenty of power and if driven gently on the highway, reasonalby MPG given it's powerful 6 cly. engine.... city MPG not so much. Not easy to DYI work on as the engine compartment is crowded and partly under the cowling, making the back 3 spark plugs near impossible to reach and very expensive to have done professionally. Very reliable so far with 140K miles on the old girl.

[@polylight]

My son sometimes ends up in the back row by himself, just one side popped up, with no middle row (stored in garage). He doesn't really like it but I call it "paratrooper mode".

[@lean2me]

@@polylight I like it! All you need now is a zip line installed and have him yell "Geronimo" every time he exits the van...

[@hotdogs5265]

My 2007 sienna has 240k and runs great but the northeast salt is rusting it away pretty bad. Replacing soon only because the rust.

[@polylight]

When my 2014 SE was newer I put on Michelin PS3s and used to peg the limiter at 115-117 mph regularly. Solid at that speed. Loved to blitz the larger SUVs....the same ones that would bear down on my little sports cars. I've settled down now (tickets, life) but hope to keep it at least another 10 years.

[@tomasmar451]

I Agree, this is a Real Buy - I have one 2012, and still running - I wish i can find one 2013 Ltd. AWD power back windows/tailgate/back seats ... Greetings from Dubai

[@TopLineRacer]

Thanks for watching!

[@CathyAllen-o8e]

Thanks so much for your review! We're looking to purchase one of these and it's good to know some of the ins and outs. Great review!

[@bazilwreckerloughead]

I kinda figured where it's a Toyota it'd be a buy...but I watched anyway, you just never know for sure!

[@TheNumbaOneMiss]

Would you buy one with 281k? I'm getting a great price and it's a great car. Just worried about the high mileage.

[@gustavolongoria6595]

We have sienna limited 2012 216348 M I’m Happy

[@KadMac25]

This or a used Honda Odyssey? I hear Odysseys have transmission issues.

[@TOBYH]

THEY DO, THAT'S WHY WE DUMPED OUR 2002 EXL, AFRAID IT WOULD TAKE A DUMP, DIDN'T TRUST IT ANY MORE.

[@dfnc03]

3.5's can also have timing cover leak. Not a cheap fix

[@Ron-h4l]

Forgot about the water pump leaks and goes bad

[@TopLineRacer]

I actually hadn't heard of that so I appreciate the heads up!

[@Ron-h4l]

@@TopLineRacer yeah it’s there did 4 them 😅

[@dchief2924]

If you don’t change the coolant every five years aand do consistent oil changes also that could happen to any vehicle

[@Ron-h4l]

@@dchief2924 That all been done on time

[@modusbee9092]

What should I get my mechanic to look?

[@zooted5443]

Went from building cool trucks to reviewing minivans

[@Patriotman54]
