  Checking in at 74K - 2004 Toyota Sienna
  By ChuckfromLI - November 29 - 2:00 am

  Just had the spark plugs replaced at 74K. It was running fine, but had that done anyway at Toyota dealer along with PCV valve, air filter, oil change and tire rotation. Total bill was $625 with the tax (8.5%). The plugs are a big job on this year Sienna because the intake manifold needs to be removed to change them, hence it is about three hours labor for the plus alone. I was pleasantly surprised to find out that there is no distributor cap or plug wires to change. Van still runs and drives as new. There may be a slight whistling sound from the passenger side front window at highway speeds. Other than that, still happy with it.

  Could be Better - 2004 Toyota Sienna
  By jkjnl - November 26 - 2:00 am

  Typical Toyota quality. Everything works as designed. Not flashy but not a dog. Soft to sloppy steering is way below prior Chryslers. Climate control system is hard to work and balance for front passengers. This car could be so much better with a few small improvements. Still seemed to be the best overall choice (despite being the most costly) due to quality reputation of Toyota. Time will tell.

  Not bad! - 2004 Toyota Sienna
  By ksgirl1 - November 7 - 10:32 pm

  I bought my 04 used in 2008 with 55Kmi. I just sold it in Oct. with 90K miles. I thought it was a great car. Super comfy and great smooth and quiet ride. My complaints would be the heated seats never seemed to get more than lukewarm. I also thought it took awhile to warm the interior of this car in the winter. The other issue we had was the DVD player would sometimes not eject the discs but other than that it was a great car for us. The only reason I sold it was because I was ready for something non "mom like". I would reccomend.

  Checking in-approaching 60K - 2004 Toyota Sienna
  By chuckfromli - October 8 - 1:13 pm

  Still have this van. I think Ive reviewed it on Edmunds before. It will be five years old in September 2009. It has about 58,000 miles on it now. Im very happy with it, as is my wife. Other than a couple of minor things, sensors, a window motor, things like that, it has been trouble free. Even those things were covered under warranty. I dont think weve laid out any money for repairs. We have for maintenance, of course. Still on our second set of brake pads. Had the coolant and hoses changed. Should probably spring for plugs, cap and wires soon, but it still runs fine. Toyota treats its customers very well. Van is fantastic on trips, roomy, smooth, quiet. 25-26 MPG highway, 18-19 overall

  Best I have ever owned. - 2004 Toyota Sienna
  By Halfmile - July 10 - 10:00 am

  This car is a total delight to own and drive. The seats were designed for me. I do not get tired driving long distances in this minivan. Everyone in the car rides in comfort. The separate front and rear climate control air conditioning is wonderful. There is plenty of power for my kind of driving. The car can be switched to haul things or people in the blink of an eye. All our senior citizen friends seem to get in and out of this car with much less effort then when we use our second car, a Camry sedan. I have recommended this car to all that will listen.

  Wonderful van - 2004 Toyota Sienna
  By L. Johns - June 13 - 2:56 pm

  Now have 83,000 miles on my Sienna. It Has the best turning radius, comfort, handling and quiet cabin of any car Ive owned. My friends all love it for its comfort, even in the back seat and its ride over curvy roads. It has enormous capacity. In 83,000 miles Ive paid for one AC relay and normal maintainance and upkeep. Im on the original set of brakes and they still have half their life. I feel very safe in this car.

  Great xcountry ride - 2004 Toyota Sienna
  By mk - April 16 - 10:10 pm

  After 30k miles,I have a good feel for this van. Even with a bad back, I can drive 2400 miles in 5 days with absolute comfort. The nav system did give wrong info on 2 occasions. Hesitation, down shifting on the slightest grade (poor power), and poor city mileage (13-14 mpg) existed right from the beginning. I feel these problems are from the AWD powertrain requirements. Highway mpg=23-24mpg. Locally, overall mpg=16-17. The runflat tires lasted 20k and were almost bald. Avoid the AWD and you will be much happier.

  Good, but expected more. - 2004 Toyota Sienna
  By soldoncars - April 16 - 10:00 am

  With the need to carry eight people, and not wanting a gas guzzling SUV, the Sienna was one of two choices. Great vehicle, tons of space, tons of power, and EXCELLENT fuel economy (25 MPG @ 80MPH), and tight turning radius. The versitility is unbelievable. The build quality of our vehicle is questionable. The dash is misaligned, as is the rear bumper. The van has also went into the dealer at least six times in the first year, for minor problems. Versions currently on dealer lots should be fine, but check carefully. FInally, WATCH THE SALESMAN AT THE DEALER!!! We were riped off.

  Great Family Car, Now With More Interior Room - 2004 Toyota Sienna
  By johnfixesstuff - April 1 - 8:34 am

  We upgraded from a 2003 to a 2004 Toyota Sienna and there is a BIG difference. The vehicle is like 6" wider and longer and it is so nice. We were not able to put a rear-facing car seat in the second row of captains chairs in our 2003 but the 2004 fits it nicely and my wife and I are both over 6 tall. The stowable rear seat is very nice too. The gas mileage is right around 20 mpg which could be better. It has plenty of power though and the ride is nice.

  Back Seat Driver - 2004 Toyota Sienna
  By Kaddy512 - December 14 - 2:00 am

  Its an okay car from my stand point (The back seat). The second row seats are pretty confortable but the 3rd row seats are stiff. I spent a 8 hour trip in the 3rd row and had back and neck spasms the next day. Everything else in the car is great.
