bought a 2010 sequoia in 2017 with 99,000 miles on it. It Now has 271,000 miles and rides like a dream
those days are over, we're now returning to the dark ages of cars... stupid expensive, unreliable, and disposable
I bought my first Sequoia in 2008, drove it 12 trouble free years (except for the water pump) and bought another one in 2020 since I new I would not like the redesign. I also bought a 2020 Tundra for the same reason. And really glad I did!
I did the same thing; a 2019 Sequoia and a 2021 Tundra. Both are built to last! Great video! I’ll be signing up for my 60K mile trans. service - you sold me AMD!
I’m at 250k on our ‘11 Platinum. Replaced one trans solenoid. At about 220k miles. Toyota said it need a trans. Lol
Bought a low mile 2016 Tundra. Plan to drive the sequoia until the kids are grown in a couple years then go back to a 4runner or one of the new Land Cruisers.
Have driven literally millions on Miles in Toyota trucks and have NEEVER had a major issue.
Had an 07 FJ, put 500k on the clock and sold it for almost as much as I bought it for, then a 21 tundra so I didn’t have to put up with the redesign with the turbo V-6.
I’m happy.
I found a low mileage '08 Tundra and got the wifey a '21 4Runner so we could both have Toyotas with proven reliability instead of gambling on the new ones that I expect to have shorter lifespans.
Same. 2019 Tundra and 2022 Sequoia.
How lucky are we Toyota and Lexus lovers to have Ahmed getting our back? I Love this channel!
👏👏👏👏
Couldn’t have said it better! I know someone having car issues and immediately told them to “look into Toyota/Lexus” 😂
Plant those seeds boys!
Its funny over the holidays my mom (from California) and a Lexus owner, and I (from Florida) and a Toyota owner learned we are both avid watchers of the Car Nut Channel. Neither of us knew the other one watched the channel, its pretty funny to learn we we’re both fans of the channel and didn’t know it.
Greeting from rust free Fl.
Bought 2012 sequoia platinum with 66k miles super clean. Have 115k miles now planning to break 200k.
Everything works no issues.
This is a extra large tank, period, legendary quality
Still driving my 2001 4x4 sequoia with quarter million miles. Runs new
Love your videos AMD and this one is spot on. I own a 2014 Tundra with the 3UR-FE motor and I've had to repair every issue you mentioned in this video. Water pump, heat exchanger leak, cam tower leak, timing chain tensioner, and secondary air injection. However... I feel like this is a testament to how great these motors are... I was able to repair every single issue myself. This motor is easy to work on and service, and it has never left me stranded.
The 2nd gen Sequoia is one of the most underrated SUV's out there. Too bad they didn't sell very well; it is hard to find a good used one. I think the best feature is the 4WD/AWD system. It is essentially a Land Cruiser without locking diffs. The transfer case is actually a Torsen center differential which allows for full time operation (with high and low range). These things are tanks! The drive train and frame is massively overbuilt. If you can find a good one, snatch it up! I kept mine for five years until I got tired of hearing my wife complain about driving such a big vehicle. I should have kept it.
Wife got Toyota venza 2011 another gem 💎. I own 2012 platinum Sequoia and will keep it for another decade.
Yeah unfortunately the sequoia got truly horrid mileage.
They sold well enough to have the same generation last what 14 years or so?
One owner well maintained At dealership, that’s the one to buy.
Just started looking into these a few weeks ago after looking at darn near everything else in the three row market but Ive already decided that my wife and I will be buying one of these in the near future to be a long term family hauler. Thanks for all the in-depth knowledge. It gives ya a lot of confidence when shopping.
I wanted one for YEARS!! Finally bought a low mileage ‘08 back in 2021. Been happy with it.
You're going to love it. It eats gasoline but it's the best family hauler outside of a minivan IMO.
02' with 275K miles and runs great! My reasons for the Sequoia, I can haul a lot of stuff and I'm far safer driving a large SUV.
Best thing you will ever buy. Take care of it, it will take care of you
My family has had our ‘11 since new and it has travelled multiple times from west to east coast and even on two opposite sides of Canada, and it’s still going strong to this day.
I have a 2001 Sequoia used not brand new. I have not regretted my purchase a single day and still consider it more reliable than the 2009/10 Sequoia I bought just last year as a replacement as my work mates felt I needed a new car. I still prefer the 2001 Sequoia especially when going on long trips as it never breaks down and has a lot of torque. Just routine engine maintenance (never had to open up the engine once) and the occasional suspension and brakes replacement. Personally I feel the older versions are built stronger and are more durable.
Thank you for making this video! I bought our 2008 in 2020 with 165K miles. It had to search the whole country to get a Limited with 8 seats. Had the water pump go out a few months later, realatively simple job. Had a U-joint go out last year, medium job. Had the starter go out this fall, pain in the butt job (thank you for your video on that!). Otherwise it's been a champ, and just hit 212K on the way back from visiting family. My oldest graduates in 2.5 years, so it needs to last at least that long until we don't have 6 kids at home anymore. I'll listen a little closer on cold starts!
Love the Car Care Nut! His videos really make me appreciate living in an area without rust problems.
All car water pumps are going to leak at some point as well as rocker covers keep oil changes up and always do the filter air and oil
@@efil4kizum Rust is only a problem in the northeast and rust belt where they salt the roads for some reason instead of using sand like they do out west. That's why I avoid buying used cars from the northeast and rust belt.
My car is going through its 19th Ontario winter. After 18 very salty winters it remains rust free because it gets an annual application of a quality rustproofing product. Rust is a choice. In the Salt Belt, rustproofing is basic preventative maintenance. Those who neglect to rustproof their vehicles will inevitably get rust. This is no different than the inevitable effects of neglecting oil changes.
@@efil4kizum Krown is what I use.
@@efil4kizum At heart, Krown is a water repellent. It repels the salty water that would otherwise rust the vehicle. To complete the picture, I NEVER wash my car in winter. When it does get washed in the spring it comes out looking as good as new. Other products may work just as well but I KNOW for certain that Krown works.
Great talk about the Sequoia. I have a 2020 with 5.7 and currently have 54K on it. Only problem is have had with it was vandalism while on vacation. Some persons decided to dump something into the non-locking gas tank. It cost me a fuel pump and set of injectors, definitely not the trucks fault. Locking gas cap installed after the fact. Doesn’t get driven much any more as I have a 2022 Prius for running around so far a both have done what they were purchased for. Roomy vacation truck and economy run about. I’m 70 now so most likely last vehicles I will purchase.
You can easily defeat a locking gas cap or door with a screwdriver.
@@user-tb7rn1il3q true, but how many young kids are walking around with a tool bag? It was just a crime of opportunity. Out of state, parked in driveway of quiet neighborhood. Just looking for trouble.
If you ever decide to sell your 2020, you could probably demand a high price for it
I have a 2021 with 18K miles on it and I'm 32 years old. This will also likely be one of the last vehicles I own lol.
I’ve been waiting for this video for YEARS!!!! Thank you for making/posting!❤
Thank you for this one! Always love second gen Sequoia content, especially when it’s made by you. I also love that the MR2 is lurking in the background. I have both of these vehicles and just thought it was kind of cool to see 😂. Happy new year to you, your family and your team!
AMD, Before there was limited production of the GR Yaris or GR Corolla in the Motomachi factory in Japan, there was a corner of the Highlander/Sienna plant in Princeton, Indiana where a team of Hoosier Takumi Masters 'hand built' the second generation of Sequoia. 🤩🤩
What an excellent presentation! Always thorough and informative. Love your channel!👍
Love this type of video. Please keep this type of content coming for other models of Toyotas!
Love the sound examples. Great content Sir!
Have a 2008 SR5 with 155k miles. At 190k now. No issues just the starter needing to be replaced. Great truck. Tank
Outstanding video !!
I have the 2010 Platinum Sequoia and I love it !
Safe, reliable and massive inside and out.
Another outstanding Toyota product.
This is the first video I have watched from your channel. Very informative and very knowledgeable. Thanks for the time in making it.
Great video as always! I love your channel. I'm not sure if you made any videos on the second gen Rav4 you had in the shop. I recently purchased one a few months ago and im loving it. There's lots of conflicting information online for this gen of Rav4. Me and probably a lot of people would love to hear your thoughts on the model and any common issues. Keep up the best toyota content on youtube.
I love to watch your videos because you give the subscribers your years of experience with Toyota vehicles. If I’m ever traveling through I would be honored to have your shop do some maintenance work on my Toyota 4Runner👍
It’s always helpful and informative.thank you
I love this type of video! I find it so helpful as a consumer to be able to be informed and know what to look for when I'm going to buy my next used Toyota later this year. May the Lord bless and keep you and your family as well:)
Awesome video! I’m glad that you like the 2nd gen sequoia. I’m planning on keeping my 2014 sequoia forever. I bought it brand new and heavily invested on its maintenance.
My favourite channel on UA-cam!
This era Tundra/Sequoia is likely aimed at older folks that grew up with huge, heavy, V8 cars through the 60's and 70's
They're big, heavy, not overly complicated with needless technogadgetry, and simply reliable.
You do trade fuel mileage for reliability, but you'll likely never find a finer vehicle if simplistic, get in and go, do whatever task is at hand worry free is your thing.
wrong....38 years old and just bought a 2010 platinum sequoia! amazing vehicle!
I wasn't alive at any point in those decades, but my '08 Tundra is perfect for me.
@roymeyer6837 I learned to drive in 70's Cadillacs, Buicks, and Oldsmobiles.
I like heavy, substantial vehicles, not overly encumbered by techno BS, that eventually breaks.
I love my 2011 Tundras simplistic usefulness.
Everything you need, nothing you don't.
If I wanted fancy, I'd bought an Infinity or Lexus.
@@BlueSkiesDay not so much the Sequoia, but I see a lot of older folks driving Tundras.
Especially guys miffed at Ford, GM, or Dodge for reliability issues.
My husband and I bought a 2016 Sequoia new to use with our small travel trailer. It has never disappointed us. I do most of the driving when pulling and it is my regular vehicle to drive. I'm 70, my husband 71. I LOVE my Sequoia. I feel safer in it and it has the capability to get moving if necessary. It has the V 8, 5.4l engine. We plan on keeping it even though we no longer need it to pull a trailer.
That melting rubber on the rear handle is the only issue my '13 developed. But I replaced it myself, and I'm not any kind of gifted mechanic. And it was very cheap. I also replaced the gas struts that hold up the rear liftgate, but I figure that's common for any liftgate.
Man where did you buy that rubber rear handle? Want to change mine. Thank you
@@EasyTiger08 dealer item
Your content is invaluable my friend. Thank you.
Quality content and information as usual, thank you sir
Great video coming from a 01 Sequoia owner. Thanks for the upload.
Thank you AMD for another informative video
Awesome video AMD! Would love to see one just like this on the 3rd gen Sienna!
I bought the '21 Sequoia specifically for the 8-seater. An absolutely awesome ride. The mileage is THE tradeoff, but it is a versatile vehicle so I take what it gives.
I love these videos. GX next or we riot 👀
Thank you for your wonderful video! I bought my 2015 Sequoia a year ago and I will never regret that purchase. 57 engine has been my dream engine since childhood, and lucky I could get it before too late! For guys who still considering getting one, if you drive it with patience, you can easily get around 15 mpg local driving with AT tires. Also take care of it, 50% of reliability from TOYOTA and another 50% from maintain. Be nice to it and this big bear will never let you down!
Thank you.. this is the most useful video I've ever watched
Great video like all of your toyota sequoia and tundra 2 gem! I just got my first sequoia a 2 gen 2009 after having a tundra 2008 they are both a tank super great vehicles
Outstanding video TCCN! Thank you. I have a 2013, turning 180K soon. I had Subaru's, which were great, upsized to a Chevy Z71 Tahoe, and now to this Sequoia. I was blown away by the design, ride, logic, simplicity coupled with efficiency of the interior. I was considering downsizing to a GX460, however, this vehicle seems like a "Diamond in the Rough". Thanks again for your incite!
Happy New Year Mrs. Car cure nut 👋👋 from Kenya 🇰🇪 following you as automotive service technician in kenya
Please please please do a video on the common problems with the new A25A-FKS engine! As always I love your videos and will continue to watch a support! Have a blessed day
I own a 2018 and it’s been amazing. Super comfortable and great for long trips. I keep up on all regular maintenance and no issues. Knock on wood.😂
The Tundra owners sure do love and miss the 5.7 liter V8. I just saw one that went a million miles, on a YT channel. I test drove one and I liked it a lot.
Almost any well designed and built engine will go that far IF MAINTAINED. (Dont expect that from Kia/Hyundai or Mitsubishi engines).
Years ago there was a story in a newspaper about a cab driver in NYC who used a 1957 Cadillac for a taxi.
It had over one million miles all in stop-and-go-driving on the original 365 ci (6.0 L) Cadillac engine.
He changed the oil EVERY 1000 miles, and likely went through a lot of oil pan drain plugs and oil pans. I totally ignore factory recommended oil change intervals and change every 3000 miles no matter what.
There's actually 2 that's over a million miles
@@donreinke5863 , Me too Don! I'm an old school hot rodder from the 60's. I still enjoy doing it myself as well.
@@donreinke5863 Taxis go through city stop and go driving everday at several hours at a time for the majority of their lives, so it makes sense that he changed the oil every 1000 miles. Compared to the average driver, who won’t be seeing that many miles with their car.
i have always loved these vehicles, especially the early ones. So much to know before buy a used one though. Wish I lived closer to your shop
Beautiful video TCCN!
Would love to hear more about the Lexus LS460 pre facelift for common problems, since i bought one last year!
Couldn't find many video son your channel on this vehicle!
I have a 2017 Lexus GX460 1UR-FE. I always wondered what the whirling sound was when I shut off the truck. Glad to know it’s a normal happy sound of the secondary air injection doing its job. Thank you very much.
I used to have a 2016. The water pump needed replacement. Otherwise ran like a champ.
How many miles ?
I just bought a 2015 platinum. I’m blown away! Had 124,000 on it and it was very taken care of. 2nd owner. Any way, because of this video I felt confident in my purchase! Thank you sir for all you do and keep doing it! You’re a blessing!🙏🏽🙌🏽
How much you buy it for looking to get similar one
Once again a great video- thank you
Great video. I was in the market for a Sequoia. However, can't justify it as a daily driver. I guess I get back to the 4Runner. My 1990 SR5, V6 manual was by far the best Toyota I've owned. My Previa was the least inspiring. Love your detailed analysis and explanations. 🚙
Awesome video!
Got a 2011 4x4 never had any problems. None of the stuff that was discussed in this video. However, great video!
1/4/24 - I am impress by your honorable dedication
To educate us of our need to research, drive and get a pre-purchase inspection
*Pre-purchase saved me buying lemon problems !
Blessings and Peace
Ty
Thank you for this video!
God bless you! One issue that I was looking for fixes on is the rear wheel camber on my 2014 Sequoia Plat.
I love this body style Sequoia I want one eventually.
I have a 2016 Toyota Sequoia sr5 2wd always took care of it and absolutely works perfectly not any major problems really reliable!!
Love my 2021 Sequoia Platinum
My wife and I have a 2017 Sequoia platinum 4 x 4 and it’s been the best vehicle. We bought it one year old and it now has 128,000 miles. It’s been very reliable I’m sure you guys will have many years ahead of you with it like we have.
@@SuperSnakePlissken just hit 10k miles last week…. It sits in our garage next to our 2022 Airstream Flying Cloud and only used for pulling…. It will outlive me for sure
Have 21 platinum in blizzard pearl
That is a nice color. Sadly I wanted army green but you couldn't get a TRD Pro in army green in 2021. You could get any other Tundra in army green which is a fucking joke. My only option was LEZBO GREEN (nicknamed by the Toyota dealership I was at) and I refused that color. I ended up going with magnet gray when I ordered mine. @@TouXu74
I purchased a used 2010 Toyota Sequoia SR5. The only issue I had was brake pads, which I had to replace every 1.5 years. Besides that, it was a tank! Loved that vehicle!
Love these videos
Great video! I had a 2006 1st gen Sequoia and replaced it with a 2016 Sequoia. It's been the best truck I've ever owned. The only major issue I've had was the rear engine seal. That wasn't a cheap fix.
Wasn’t covered under the powertrain warranty?
@@rj12345rj Unfortunately, no. I bought it used. It was certified, but the warranty had expired by the time the seal started leaking. Cause that seems to be how it always works. 😂
I also have a 2006 sequoia and looking to get a used 2021-2022 with the 5.7L engine. Not really interested on the v6 twin turbo.
@@f.galvez9301 Any engine than needs one power adder (let alone two) is something I will avoid. Ive driven those twin turbo Ford ecoboost things, and would NEVER purchase anything with a similar design.
@@donreinke5863but its not a toyota.
2013 here with 140k. Zero issues and i love this truck. Mint inside and out and zero rust underneath. Cant believe the condition of this thing after all this time.
Bought a 13 in august with 179k now at 201k has been flawless 🤙 the 5.7 is a hoss
@@freedomisntfree_44 my wife wants a little more room so shes looking at suburbans I told her don't even think about me getting rid of my Sequoia that thing ain't going nowhere anytime soon
Love your videos!!
Would live to see some NX content, I have a 2015 with the 8AR engine. Not much content on these.
I have a 2008 second gen Sequoia with the 5.7. It has 249,000 miles on it. No issues at all. I love it! Highly recommend one for anyone looking.
I’m looking at one tomorrow with 234k miles and nothing wrong for $8500. Pretty stoked
Great video
Happy New Year
👍
I have a 2020 Sequoia Platinum that I bought new that developed a slight whine in the rear differential at about 35K miles. Since it was over 3 years old my extended warranty paid for the replacement. I don’t think the rear ends are a common problem from what I can tell. Glad to have the extended warranty though. Other than that it’s been trouble free and I much prefer it over the new design with the 3rd row mess.
I've changed the valve cover gaskets and water pump only once on my 03 Sequoia, which I've owned since new and currently has 301k miles.
Thinking of buying one of these
Thanks!
Happy new year
Great review of a nice SUV with an excellent V8.
I have a rust free RWD 2007 Tundra with the 5.7L 3UZ-FE, it has 315,000 miles. The front timing cover has a weeping oil leak that I clean periodically, it's nothing that requires me to add oil between oil & filter changes. I bought the truck when it had 270,000 miles and it had a sticking chain tensioner that was very loud, I used a pour in bottle of ATS oil system treatment to clean out carbon build up and varnish - the ticking stopped. My regular cab short bed truck is easily 1,000 pounds lighter than the Sequoia, so my performance and fuel economy is much better than what any RWD Sequoia delivers.
AMD, it would be awesome if you could do another in-depth review of the 3rd gen tundra and talk about the pros and cons in regards to what you know about the 10 speed transmission and the new engine, whether or not you think it’ll be reliable etc. anyways thanks for your videos!
I'm glad you mentioned the Air injection pumps on the 1UR engines. They are a terrible thing.
I always watch your videos .
Can you please Review the
Lexus Tx 500h
Thanks 🙏🏻
My wife drove a brand new Limited, $40k, 2008 until 2022. Torque, hp were excellent. Highway driving was excellent. 13mpg was only negative, but reliability and great SUV made it worth it. Sold for $15k with 185kmiles on it.
Need more of these video. Can you please do a lexus LX at some point (2016-2022)? Thats my next one on my bucket list
ua-cam.com/video/CJZzImUkdOo/v-deo.html
Me too. I have a 470 for now, which I love.
My wife drives one and we e had it for awhile now. They are a tank, very heavy. Do yourself a favor, if you buy one and they have the Dunlop’s get rid of them, they are total garbage and wear out very fast. Get the Michelin Defenders, twice the treadlife.
Great Video - Thank you. Regarding the brakes, all spot on comments on how they are lacking and pulsate. I went as far as getting the Stoptech Big Brake kit - it does help quite a bit where I can actually engage the ABS in the dry now on this heavy truck - much more confidence inspiring from that point of view. However, you don't mention the spongy brake pedal feel that plagues many of these models based on repeating threads on the various Sequoia forums. With the car off, the brake pedal is solid - like a rock, even with two feet pressing on it and back against the seat back. The second you turn the car on, the solid pedal feel goes away and it becomes a spongy mess giving the feel that you can't trust the brakes. Pumping the brakes helps a tiny bit but not much. No one seems to be able pin down what is causing this and how to fix it. And it does not appear to be bleeding related (air in the fluid despite the symptom). The bleeding method does not seem to make any difference: Gravity bleeding, vacuum bleeding, pressure bleeding or pump and hold - all the same results. Many people recall the feel is like that even when truck was new. If you know how the pedal feel can be made better that is not bleeding related, maybe you could make a video on that? Many people are not happy with the spongy confidence lacking brake pedal feel of the Sequoia. If you need more detail on this issues, reach out and I'll be happy to explain further.
I find that the only 2 things that stiffen the brake feel is an intentional activation of the ABS (something I do monthly along with 4wd engagement), and when the traction system activates; cycle your valves kids. I also can’t say enough about the change to quality stainless braided brake lines (all of them) and a good pad break-in procedure.
BigWood is under braked up front; and the Stoptech kit is on my shopping list. It better not have any clearance issues with my pretty (heavy) TRD sway bar.
I would love to see thw rest of the seriess with all of the vehicles. A lot of us are buying/bought used and would love info on them. Like the older avalons/highlanders/rx/sienna/gx etc. Im not currently in the market for a used one but am doing research for other members of my family.
get this channel to 1mil!
If you’re constantly losing coolant consistently without seeing any coolant ANYWHERE its more than likely the heat exchanger valley plate. Sometimes hard to diagnose if it leaks from certain areas of the plate. Mine was leaking from the front of the plate which was allowing coolant to drain into these deep holes in the block. When I finally removed the intake manifold there was this massive coolant tumor forming. Consider getting the Hewitt Technologies secondary air injection delete kit if you’re attempting the valley plate repair. Allows you to literally remove every component of the secondary air injection system. And makes the repair so much easier. Reinstalling the SAIS air switching valves is HELL
Dear Car Care Nut, PLEASE answer this question? I have a 2019 Sequoia does the COOLANT overflow bottle level change depending on whether it's hot or cold? Or should it always be at the full mark? Thanks for taking the time in answering. Great channel you have b.t.w.
Thank you. very informative.
I have an amusing reaction to your through knowledge of these vehicles.
At the beginning, I think I want one because they are so durable and reliable.
Then you proceed to scare the idea out of me.
Where is the secondary air injection filter on a 2008 5.7 on a tundra? Didn’t know they had one. I replaced the secondary air valve twice in 345,000 miles.
Love the channel thanks
Thanks
Love my 2008 Sequoia Platinum 4x4.
Awesome video!!
I get the brake vibrations, it gets annoying when coming down the mountain. If I upgraded pads and rotors that should help right? What pad and rotor would you recommend? Thanks in advance!!
I absolutely love my 2019 limited. I bought it new with 7 miles. It now has 24k miles. This is my second sequoia. My last one was a 2006 that I only kept for 4 years before regrettably selling. Not sold on the new sequoia to swap.
I have the same ticking noise on my brand new 2023 GX460! Is it possible that I have a faulty chain tensioner? It happens when I start the car in the morning and the noise is coming from the driver side.
Hi AMD, can u make a video about "Italian tune up", the mechanics and how they work and if they're effective. Thank you.
Hi Amd!! Love your channel. Just wanted you to know that the platform "Just Answer" has you as one of their qualified mechanics. I saw your face and as one of their technicians. Just wanted you to know, in case you don't work with them. God Bless.
Just traded our 2012 4runner for a Sequoia because we’re having a 3rd kid. LOVED LOVED LOVED the 4runner. Sad to see it go but we need a 3rd row now. I had been reading stuff on forums about the 3rd gens having engine failures so I opted to get a used 2nd gen platinum with a 5.7. I have 188k miles on my 2014 Tundra and had a 2013 for a short time before that (had kids and swapped the DC for a crewmax). The 5.7 is a fantastically reliable motor. Love it other than the gas mileage.
Would love to see a video on that black Tacoma in the background. Classic!
it is a classic LOL
ive owned three of these. My 2010 had 128 miles on it when the dashboard lit up with all warnings. Turns out there was a series of VINs for that were produced with VVTI springs installed too tightly and set off the CEL. Had to get those replaced.
I have a 2011 and had transmission issues. Would not go past third gear. Very easy fix but pulled the pan and replaced three of the shift solenoids.
OMG, AMD! I am the owner of a 2009 LX570 with 160,000 miles on it. I have noticed the sound of timing chain tensioner since last May. Thank you for letting me know what exactly that is! Could you do a video of changing the timing chain tensioner? Thank you!
