My Toyota sequoia has 405,000 miles and runs fantastic
original transmission?
Hey what’s your opinion on changing transmission fluid ??
These comments give me hope. What is all the work you've put into it?
@@christianbrooks1079 I feel the same way,I'm really gonna check this vehicle out...
Wait a minute,original engine and transmission????
Great info. 2006 Tundra 89K Love it!
Brand new👍🏻
Thanks for the info ... I'm actually on the lookout for a clean 1st generation Sequoia myself. I figure it'll be good for my winter driving as well as some hauling and camping.
Did you end up with a 1st gen sequoia? I'm try to decide between the 1st and 2nd Gen sequoia because of 4.7 vs 5.7 v8 for towing 4000 pound camper. More power is better, but if 4.7 can more than handle it, I'll pay the lower price tag
i bought my mom an 04 Toyota and can agree with the chalky white paint. I will add that I had to fix the traction light coming on and off.. it was due to a wire that was shorting out on the PRNDL shifter. just re-terminated and problem was good to go.
What is a good year to look for and year's to stay away from?
Have you had any issues with the Evap Emission System codes? I have a 2004 Tundra and can't get rid of a P0442 Code which is: Evaporative Emission System Leak Detected (Small Leak). Hope you can cover this. Thanks.
Never had it on a tundra but its common on toyota cars, usually its the purge solenoid on the driver front under the hood
@@NathansPorscheWorkshop Had same code. Mine was a cracked fuel filler neck on the gas tank
'01 Limited w/316,000 miles on my daily driver. I concur with these issues & will add the exhaust manifold leak/tick, the white paint turns chaulky, and early models, if not all, need upgraded braking. Overall best truck ever built by man. Spark plugs are 30 min with a cup of coffee on a Saturday morning. The maintenance on this vehicle is very straight forward. Your return on investment is outstanding. 10/10
Yes and remember they fixed the leak in the exhaust manifolds in 2003 models
Steimie Snerdly I heard a manifold ticking sound from inside and it felt like I was losing power but in reality it was the torn rubber boot around the steering column that let the sound in.

Poor man's land cruiser
Owned a 2001 tundra and traded in for an 06 double cab almost 13 years ago. Mine is natural white which is a single stage, no clear coat paint. Apparently all their natural colors were done single stage. After she became chalky I had it repainted 2 years ago with a healthy clear coat. Looks brand new. I've had to replace inner/outer tie rods, radiator cap, normal wear and tear. That's it. I did have the dealer do my timing chain and associated water pump, etc at the prescribed interval. In the next year I plan on changing all AC components myself, proactively changing the alternator, and keeping an eye on the secondary air injection system. Keeping her a while longer.
I have an 03 Sequoia with 270k. I've had to replace the front sway bar end links twice and the rear door handle once. I have rust on the rear wheel wells and a broken radio antenna. Also, some of the radio lights don't work. And my driver door rattles on windy days or when going over a bump. A shop is now fabricating new replacement parts. Other than that, my Sequoia has been trouble free since I purchased it in July 2003.
Thanks for your response! I have my '03 in the shop now for the sway bar links, cross arm and ball joints in the front. It shakes terribly! Can't wait to get it out. As far as the other stuff: the antenna is broken and the back door latch just broke! But....got the parts from Amazon and I'm gonna dive it!
Getting rid of EcoBoost king ranch, eco=junk and I'm picking up a 06 limited 4x4 Quoia this week.
Hey Nathan, can you add those headlights to your Amazon channel. I wanted to go buy but it wasn't there.
Yeah, c'mon man! Where's the link?
i use to be a nissan honda guy now im a toyota guy lol
I have a 2001 SR5 4wd Tundra. It has 374K and runs like a charm. Quality at it's best.
‘07 Sequoia. First issue was rear door handle breaking, and replacing the cable. $50 for parts and a couple hours labor. Did the cheater wire like the video for emergency opening. Next issue was that primary air pump thing that makes it Cali compliant....the fan blades are plastic and they disintegrated. I put a bypass on it, cost $100ish, annoying fan whine gone. Axle warped at 130k, had to replace it along with Ujoints. Need to replace shocks and struts. Radiator split at 140k, replaced it. It’s been a pretty reliable ride all these years and overall maintenance costs are good. It was my wife’s primary vehicle for a few years, then mine for a few years, and now my college age son is driving it. We plan on driving it for awhile longer.
How much did it cost to replace the struts and a Shocks?
Looking for a sequoia due to LC's and LX 450 being costly in my area. Thanks for this valuable information.
which is better？1st gen sequoia or lx450
Just changed my upper and lower ball joints with axles and sway bar links for the second time.. how could you not mention the balls!! These years of tundras can be dangerous so everyone needs to check the joints. If their torn or the car steers weird get them replaced, it could be your life🤨✌🏼
I thought i heard him talk about the upper and lower ball joints
04 tundra 2x4 trd. Freaking exhaust manifold gaskets!!! Also, airbag recall... not a big issue... wouldn't trade my tundra for anything!!! Its a hell of a truck 230+k miles
Glad I found this! I was just doing research on these, I want to buy a larger SUV to turn into a camping rig/DD. Seeing yours with almost 400k on it is a good testament to the longevity! The other vehicle I'm considering is a Tahoe/Yukon of the same year, but I think the Yota has a better look and interior (though I really love the GM V8's). Obviously the 4.7 lasts a long time, but I really hate that it has a timing belt.
Michael Smith it's a non interference motor though
@@r0llinlacs actually it is an interference engine so must be careful to change it on schedule!
@@brettb5228 the 1st gen 2uz is non interference, the 2nd gen 2uz with VVT-i is interference
Although Toyota will tell you the first gen is interference, you can ask anybody who's timing belt broke if it damaged the valves or pistons and they will tell you no. On paper it's interference, but it's generally considered non-interference since nothing ever breaks.
However, the second gen 2uz will definitely break stuff if the timing belt breaks.
@@r0llinlacs Ok interesting I didn’t know that, good to hear! Great engine
Wow! I've watched half, & so far it's honestly just maintenance. 😉
Pretty impressive stuff...
My dad has a 2007 sequoia with over 410KM. Most reliable car ever!
Thats just INSANE...
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
rear axle bearings, front rotors, power steering leaks, driver door lock/latches 2006 tundra
Get rid of BMW, unless you like throwing money
FACTS...
Well. Just had to scrap my 2001 Sequoia. So sad to see her go. 225K. Too bad, she still runs like a top. Bought new in Nov 2000. She has been a great vehicle. I was one of the very first frames to have been replaced by Toyota. Fought to get it done in 2013. The rust has just become too much. Rear end had to replace the diff cover which is actually sealed. You can purchase a steel cover and weld it after cutting off the rusted one. Also had issues with tailgate window rails rotting out and handle replacment. The rear emergency brakes needed to be replace. The ends were rotted out. Could not repair cost effectively. Drivers side manifold needs to be replaced. Then mech calls and says bad news. Oil pan is rotted and leaking. Checked it out and it is so rusted cannot even epoxy it. Too much to pull the motor to replace it. Living in high salt new england did its number on it. I towed a boat every summer for the last 15 years with it. Never had a problem. Good news is that I found a 2006 and it just had the frame replaced and control arms in OCT 2018. She is in great shape. Hardly any rust underneath. Body excellent. Just going to have them replace the water pump and timing belt as part of the deal. Out with the real old and in with the less old. Cannot wait to pick it up.
Fluid film in a spray can my friend. Use this on your next Tundra every fall and thank me later
@@theejoeylee Fluid film? I'll have to google that.
Hey I went to check your store for the headlights and I didn't see them! Just to let you know. Awesome video man. I just bought a 2000 tundra with 220k. Runs amazing.
The all metal handle fixes this up good. Just grease lube everything and you would be good to go. I dont use the powered antenna unless i need to. I created a button to keep it down when the radio is on. The radio stations are HD digital now so its not necessary to use the antenna unless you are in rural area
Great video. My 03 Sequoia had a lift in it when I purchased it. I replaced it with factory suspension and don't regret it. The ride and handling is way better now. The ride was rough and top heavy.
Selling control arms?
@@elcasasdor sorry they’re long gone.
Glad you started a Toyota channel I have a 01 Tundra with 1820000 mi my Tundra runs great and looks great.
Stay tuned , the wheel spacers just arrived , should have a video up tomorrow on them
Wait what.... almost 2 million!?
I have a 03 Toyota tundra with a 4.7 it recently started knocking so I took out the main bearings none of them are scarred or crushed there's no wiggle room in any of the rods connected to the Pistons why is my truck knocking my truck doesn't even have 250,000 miles on it
i picked up an 06 with 64k miles recently...
Tou Yang in Cali that's costing around 10k
In KY thats 12k all day
I’m looking to sell my ram and pay cash for a tundra. They seem legit. Are they any good off road?
myrandomlife, I'm looking at buying one myself. But I've been researching for a long time now. The only thing is since the first gens are new enough technology wise, they have electronic diff. and a limited slip diff.
They work for stabdard use. But it's not anything as great as the old solid axles or real lockers.
myrandomlife I have a 05 tundra and it’s honestly really good off road I’m running a 3 inch level with 33” MT and haven’t gotten stuck yet
Had one with 300k, had 185psi in all 8, less than 5psi variation!
I noticed the front struts were still just fine but the lower bushings were shot, why not just change them instead of the entire strut which is still ok... 👍
Excellent video! I'm going to look at an 03 Sequoia this week. I really appreciate the thoroughness and relaxed demeanor.
Did you get it? I’m in the same situation right now lol
I've had my 2wd ranger pos for 7 years or more. Been dreaming of an 02 tundra or sequoia since they were new
TheeJoeyLee yeah ford found on road dead. Own a 01 4Runner now with over 300k miles. Smooth as butter.
You got a new subscriber. I recently purchased a very well kept(dealer maintained-one owner) ‘02 Sequoia. It has almost 300k miles on it and it runs like a champ! I’m looking forward to watching more of your videos to get more knowledgeable of what I may have to deal with in the future. I do have an immediate question and that is I have a slight wobble when I get it up to about 70 mph. It’s squeaks a little in the front on the driver side. If you could point me in the right direction, I’d appreciate it! Thanks again, great video!
u-joints?
'02 SR5, ~245k, daily drive, 10 years in salt/snow (Ohio) and 5 years in desert heat (Las Vegas), bought for cheap when it was 4 years old. First, we are SUPER hard on cars, I replace ceramic breaks almost yearly on our cars. I agree with tie rods, antenna, back window, and power steering issues. I have replaced all myself with little issue. I just bought the shocks, struts, and ball joints for their first replacement. It is worth the couple of extra bucks to get Moog parts that last compared to the cheaper options. I am also doing the timing belt and alternator for maybe the the first time(I can't remember for sure) in the fall when it cools down. Otherwise, this car is insanely reliable and worth the price. So much so, that my in-laws just bought an '08 based on seeing how little issues we have. No paint or rust issues. I would recommend the headlight restore kits for under $10 and some elbow grease instead of replacing them. My horn did go out, which I replaced, but it seems to be a wiring/contact issue somewhere. That is the first thing I am tackling.
Seriously, totally worth the price with little maintenance. As it stands today, I don't think I will ever buy a non-Toyota/Lexus based on how reliable they have been compared to my other cars.
00101010111001101100 check to see if you are getting any contact on the horn switch behind the airbag. I have had this problem on a few older toyotas and Lexus. There is a thin ribbon in a rotating assembly that connects all the features of the steering wheel(horn, control buttons and airbag signal and power) to the rest of the vehicle. The ribbon moves around in the rotating assembly every time you move the steering wheel, which is a lot, so they eventually wear and break. When this happens your airbag light might come on too. It's not too hRd to replace though. Just got to pull the steering wheel .
"02 SR5 w/260k, in 4wd every day where I live on top of a small "mountain" in WA state. Normal annual maintenance costs of around $500, and it runs like crazy. This rig is just totally reliable with no issues. Will be putting the Nokian studded Hakeppellitta 9's on this winter, because the dirt/rock/gravel "road" up to our place can get very icy and it's already really steep and twisty.
Buy OEM for ball joints only. Ball joints are the most common catastrophic failure on first gen Tundras and Sequoias, and probably half of them are due to using MOOG replacements that are very poorly made. The other half is probably a total lack of maintenance/replacement.
Toyota corrected their original issue with ball joints, and OEM replacement really is the only proven safe option (outside of upper control arm replacements with uniballs instead of ball joints).
Alternators are a common replacement item. I have replaced the alternator in my Lexus at 150K as well. My Sequoia alternator still seems OK at 147K. The additional fan sounds interesting to me.
Bought 2001 V8 4 wheel drive Sequoia (195K miles) in April 2018. I LOVE this vehicle. I did break off the inside door handle on drivers side, so for now I roll down window to use the outdoor handle. Well, today I was idling in fast food drive through line for awhile and when I finally got on the road again I noticed a noise coming from my car when I would step on the gas pedal. I kept trying to confirm it was from my vehicle (getting 3 kids to be quiet). When I realized it was and stopped a feet hundred feet at the next stop sign, I saw white smoke coming from under the hood. I immediately pulled over. It is a hot texas day now (105 heat index). Waiting to have it towed now. Maybe radiator? The dashboard temp gauge never lit up though? Smell associated with smoke resembled a burning smell :( I hope my baby will be repairable. :(
Took delivery of my new 03 Tundra in November of 02 so the truck is currently 16 years old. 130,000 miles and nothing but tires, fluids, filters, batteries, 1 timing belt and nothing but maintenance items. Knock on wood but nothing has worn out yet. Incidentally I have never changed the transmission fluid because the manual didn't say to do it. Fluid still looks and smells new and runs great. I'm hoping to drive it forever. Like your channel. Great information.
@Erik Mathews I notice on Scotty Kilmer's channel he recommends not replacing tranny fluid, saying that problems occur shortly afterwards. My son is pestering me to change it, and I am sitting on the fence. Any more suggesting I change it?
Great video! I have a 2003 Sequoia SR5 4x4 with 260k miles on it. Best truck ever! Very good insight into the idiosyncrasies of the Sequoia.
Wait... I thought the SR5 didn't have the air suspension?
Correct, it did not
I WENT TO THE LINK ON AMAZON AND DIDN'T SEE HEADLIGHTS FOR TUNDRA
2004 Tundra SR5 Double cab 2 wheel drive 4.7L - 270,000 miles - I've only replaced the radiator and the tailgate latch 2 times. I love my truck and will never sell it. I may buy a new truck in about 5 years but will hold on to this truck.
It’s Crazy How Well it’s Aged in the looks department lol Still a Beautiful Car.
My dad bought his 02 sequoia just before I was born. It has been stolen twice and has 350k miles on it. Now I drive it as my first car. I jest put some subs in it and changed all the speakers and added apple car play to it. Honestly one of the most reliable trucks I’ve ever seen.
Solid video, just replaced my radiator in my 2000 Tundra (pushing 200k), it had the exact issue which you described where the crimps started to leak.
Headlight link? Nice video, I would add the the front steering stabilizer bushings.
01 toyota Sequoia with 300k on it. replaced the trans on it, keeping it maintained. need to do an oil change soon. back hatch handle broke, window does not roll down because i installed a system in and it broke the window off the tracks and caused a loud rattle in my hatch that wont go away. relay and motor works in the door, you can hear it. but nothing happens. 3rd alternator so far. i need to upgrade the alt to a higher amprage and do a big 3 on it so it lessens the possibility of it going out. my drivers door has trouble closing. 02 sensors go out alot as well. normally 1 and 2. 3 and 4 seem to be still holding up well. evap sensor goes bad or needs to be cleaned alot. another problem is with the 01-02 Sequoias, the trac control and vsc trac with engage by itself and will not allow you to use the breaks and it could/will drag you to any part of the road. it will lock the steering too. so it could get scary. but if you take out the relay itll be good. i get 6-9mpg with the heavy weight in the back. when the 02 sensors go bad i get around 4-5mpg. when bad 02 sensors, oil change needed and air filter need to be cleaned, as well as the mass air flow sensor, mpg can decrease dramatically. no one believes when i say i dont get the rating from the car used. (12-16mpg) until they ride with me and watch the sensor counts the numbers down 1 mile every 2-3 minutes. and then theyre thankful their car gets at least 18mpg. but i love this truck. its a very reliable truck. built very well, structurally. if this truck ever gives out on me, you best believe im going to build it back up and drive it until it fails again. this truck isnt going anywhere.
You forgot about the 4Runner with the same V8
My 2002 tundra sr5 has 318k on it . I use it every single day pulling a loaded down 16ft enclosed trailer . Runs like a new truck, I will never sell my tundra
What would you think about a 2004 limited 4wd. With 211,000 miles. I owner has a salvage title due to a small tree falling on the roof. It has been fixed and the guy wants 3400? Have you heard of sunroof issues?
I have some technical questions about the first generation Toyota Sequoias,first question is that is it possible to change the tailgate of a Sequoia that did not come with a spoiler originally with the one that has a spoiler,can a spoiler be added to a tailgate that does not come originally with one,is it possible to change the tail lights of an 02 model with say an 05-07 models.I will really appreciate your response because I am trying to update my 2002 model.
I think the taillights are different, you can install the spoiler though
I'm thinking about buying an 06 tundra crew limited with a mileage between 180,000 and 220,000. I'd appreciate anyone giving advice if the Frame and body is pretty good should I be concerned about dropping $8-9500 bucks?
Nathan thanks for all the information. I am thinking of buying a 2001 Limited with 269k miles. This will be for Winter driving and hunting. Should buy or pass less than $3k. Thanks
I bought an 03 with 260k on it last year for $3400 . I had to change the timing belt, but since then I've put 30k on it no problems. My back latch did go out like he said and it has a slight exhaust leak. I would but another one in a heart beat.
Door lift handles notoriously bad
I recently installed my 4th tailgate release handle, and in the process, learned something important. Yes, the handle does fail, but it actually due to the faulty catch at the bottom. The catch is metal, but encapsulated in plastic, causing it to bind as it wears through. When it gets too bad, it puts excessive strain on the handle (at the other end of the cable). Replace the latch mechanism and keep it clean...you probably won't have to touch it again for 10 years. Also, consider replacing the rear window scraper seal and you will keep out the dirt and water that cause all the problems in the first place.
Yes, i have also had this same problem, and replacing the lock itself solved my problem, and will keep the handle latch good for a long time.
I replaced my timing belt about a year ago on a 2007 sequoia 2WD at 89000 miles. I did not replace the camshaft seals or my crankshaft seal. Fast forward a year later and my passenger camshaft seal is leaking. Does this require the disassembly of the camshaft to get to it? I know on the 2001-2004 it’s simple to change out the camshaft seal but on 2005-2006 the camshaft has to be removed because of the VVT? Is there a work around? I was quoted $1500 to replace the camshaft seal by a mechanic? Ouch!
Why did Toyota engineers position the alternator on the bottom and not the top?
Great video! Just bought one here in Lockport, IL a limited edition with 173k on it. Got some rust due to the Midwest though. Just like your video, door latch broke off so I ordered the replacement cord and a metal handle; Antenna won't go all the way up; and its currently in the shop for sway bar links, control arm and ball joints. Next step is to replace #3 and #4 02 sensors and get a new muffler because its growling! (LOL!) ALSO...checked online with Toyota for recalls and found one for the passenger side airbag. Getting that replaced Saturday. Other than that, its rides strong and I'm very pleased.
My AC fan probably needs be replaced. These things do NOT like sitting with the ac on. Drives me insane the front isn't as cold as rear. 😢
Dont forget!! The rear passenger door lock will get stuck as well.
There is a light bulb mounted on the top of the emergency brake bracket just above the left foot of the driver. It's suppose to shine a light down on the floor on the driver's floorboard when the driver's side door is opened. My bulb is missing and no one seems to be able to tell me what the number is for that bulb so I can replace it. Can you help? Jerry in Lafayette, CO - I have a 2005 Toyota Tundra full-access cab limited pu.
As I was fixing my newly replaced metal rear hatch handle, I did something that I think will forever fix that metal handle.
Since they just twist and bend down, and the main contact on inside of handle has an upside down V..
I took needle nose pliers and bent it back to like new, then here's the key. I took a nice nail. A hammer. A pc of wood, and a cutting disc sitting by me.. so I tapped the nail with wood to give it about 3 small bends and a twist. Went under upsidedown V, upward, inward, over spring, then to the home stretch under (or may have had to go over.. doubt it though). About 5 zip tiies cut off clean. Hit the head n tip with cutting disc to fit perfectly, so it wont snag on door body.
That thing will never break haha!!
And honestly. It took like 10 minutes. Takes 20 to get it in n out of hatch lol. If you know how. Got it all back together before n been like "Damnit!! I forgot the Phillip's screws on the inside of outer panel." Lol
I bought the Dorman latch and got a piece of 1/8 steel flat bar and fabricated the little whimsy piece that the latch wire hooks up to. Should outlast everyone alive.
@@johnlacambra6004 That'll do it! Haha
I have a 2004 Toyota sequoia limited and only thing i have ever had 2 replace is the Thermostat because it was over heating sitting still its fine now but ac is getting hot sitting sill now workes great moving it has 298,000 miles now we bought it new in 2004 for 50,000 hevest thing we pull is a four wheeler and razer together on my trailer
236k on my 2000 Tundra and have not replaced the alternator yet. Did replace the starter at a little over 200k. It has an interesting location on the 4.7 engine that makes it a little pricey.
HiI have a Toyota Sequoia 02 limited with 415 k and my awd is locked. What can I do do fix it? Pls help me out thanks !
I just purchased a 2007 Sequoia SRT 4WD with 220,000 miles and I'm only getting 11-12 mpg in the city. Whats the best place to start in trying to find out why this is? It is not lifted but has 275/70/17 BFG all terrain tires
That's about right. I had an 05 sr5 and avg. About 13 miles in city when I owned it 99k to 112k miles.
I bought a 2006 Toyota Tundra DLB TRD Sr5 4x4 back in May of 2006 with 4miles on it. It's absolutely the best truck I've ever own...I Have 158,600 miles on it and all I've ever done to it other than the required maintenance is change the clip on the driver side rear for the emergency brake and the bushings on the front tie rod along with tires of course. I have used it to haul/tow just about everything there is and it also get used in the winter to plow snow. The only issue I have with it is, with the 4.7 L engine while towing it lacks power going up steep hills. I can't tell you how many time I towed other vehicles out when they get stuck - everything from cars to tractor trailers. I just put it in 4 WL, put the shifter in 2nd gear and use the L shift button. This button locks it in 1st gear and occasionally I might have to put chains on. This is NO BS. Oh did I mention that I live in the Mountains of Western Montana. I Love this Truck and will keep it until it dies but I think it will outlast me. Oh, I backed into a tree the other day while hunting so I have a dent in my rear bumper but other than that it's still in great shape. I've always had a Ford or Chevy before but I'll never hesitate to buy another Toyota if that time comes. Thanks, Nathan for letting me tell my story. Art
Chances are I’m good with buying a 2006 Tundra Crew Cab 4WD w/ 112k miles then right? 2 owners and no accidents/damage.
Scott Watkins yes
Scott Watkins I have an 87 pickup and a 03 sequoia and they are the best vehicles I’ve ever had
Great video. I would add definitely do the lower ball joints if you haven't got them done under the recall. Also the steering rack bushings should be done in the high mileage rigs. When they get sloppy they can cause the steering rack to fatigue and crack. If you replace the lower ball joints or steering rack use ONLY OEM parts for those. A little more expensive but 10x the quality of Chinesium auto parts store ones. Another thing to watch for is the clutch fan gets brittle as is ages. When it explodes it can take out the radiator. But man with minimal maintenance these things are insanely durable.
lets add, secondary air injection pump failure. video on my channel
along with rack bushings. yes 2 change tranny fluid too.
Seriously thinking of ditching my Nissan Pathfinder that is nearly 10 years newer with half the mileage for one of these.
What Make and part # for spark plugs? I see lots of confusion on the boards.
Weight of diff gear oil 200k?
Great vid...now can you come do all my maint?!!!
I just bought a 2002 sequoia with 186,000 miles is trash TOYOTA
I own two Tundras, my first one has 95K and my second one (which I just purchased) Has 44k ......I love these trucks!
I've got a clean 03 , just put a rear hatch latch handle in and a 800$ yaw rate sensor. Other than that its been a decent one
What is your solution to rear hatch not locking? It clicks but all the doors lock and I slam it as much as I can but still pops open.
I wet sanded and buffed my sequoia headlights and they look much better but there is still a little fog on the inside of the lenses.
263,000 and counting on my 99 4runner. Yesir!!
You keep saying look at your links below. Why you talking smack?
My Toyota sequoia 2002has 23600 milles work good.
The headlights are not showing up under your amazon store. Link please?
Hey I'm from your mre Chan I've ask some questions what do you thing about 2008 thru 2019 tundras and 5.7 iforce
Plus horrible plastic foggy headlights...Lol
Shopping right now. Trying to decide gen1 or gen 2 sequoia
I got a 06 Tundra and soon it will hit 200,000 miles , thank u for the heads up :)
Where you at in Missouri? I'm in the Kansas City area. I have Toyotas. You taking new customers?
Terry, Nathan has a `plaza` dealership thing on his Sequoa lift gate, that's an upscale dealership in Balwin Mo, suburban St Louis.
On my 10th Toyota. ( Lexus gx 460) nothing but love for their products. Loved my Seuquia.
“Toyota’s only!” *2 years later channel is called Nathan’s Porsche Garage* LOL
Life changes
Nathan, get a metal handle haven't had my metal handles break on any of my 3 Sequoias, costs the same as a plastic one (about $10-15)
Where you buy it?
In 3 years dude went from Toyota to Porsche?
you forgot the front lower ball joint that makes the wheel fall off
Christopher Williams had that happen 😂
Happened to me twice

What brand ball joints do you recommend?

So I have a question I just bought a 2002 Sequoia and it has 251k and the transmission fluid looks brown so I was planning on changing it but someone else told me that if it’s brown with that many miles chances are the transmission may be worn and changing the fluid could expedite the transmission going out so they recommended that I leave it alone and not change it. What do you recommend? Is what they said true? Should I change it or just leave it alone? It shifts fine.
Definitely don't do a full flush. A drain and fill might be ok but still a risk that you need to decide whether it's worth taking
Any of you guys over 300k orig transmission fluid? Just personal research I know buddy and me both have 300k plus orig fluid
I'm at 290K original transmission fluid. Been told by mechanic not to touch it at this point.
I have 200,000 miles on my sequoia I don’t know if the transmission fluid has ever been changed would you recommend changing the fluid ? I always hear people say when you change it the transmission is going to go out and I would just like to get your input on this thank you
And would you change the filter or just the fluid ?
We just got a 02 with 113k miles. Amazing condition! Never seen a dirt road in its life I would bet. We used to have a Highlander but need more room for the family so this is our first sequoia and we love it!
I got an 02 with 384k stock to the core

Easiest fix for the rear window is in a TSB. Remove all the covers, remove the little spring and it's bolt. Bingo the window works.
make a video on that please.
Yes video please
