100% on the rear hatch handle. i have a 2006 4x4 with 261k miles and that handle is on it's last leg. thankfully i bought all 4 door handles and the rear hatch handle on eBay for $75.
I have a 2002 sequoia SR5 with 204,000. Only owner. No problems except rear hatch door latch broken and replaced once and radiator (rusted) had to be replaced. Other than that, only oil changes, tires and brakes. Best automobile we have ever own. Btw my daughter droves this car to 144,000 miles without changing timing belt due at 90,000. Miles. I replaced it at 144.000 without any problem other than costly. I was amazed it went that long without breaking.
@@jmoreno2228 The dealership noticed that the fan belt had cracked in it and figured the timing belt had not be changed so I had the timing belt changed. Cracks in fan belt will let you know if timing belt hasn’t been changed. I was not having any problems- just there to get extra remote and keys made.
You are probably my favorite 1A Presenter. Calm, cool, and collected. Often we get to hear what a problem sounds like/looks like instead of having to imagine it.
Hello I'm David i have a 2001 sequoia with 287k and I love this tank.. Everything what this lady say it's a TRUE. Every 4 of 5 issue what she say i have in past.. But now car is like new.. Engine and transmission is original.. Those cars needs some attention and love ❤️❤️❤️
I bought my 2002 from a used car dealer. I have had it for five years. It has almost 300,000 miles on it. It is the most dependable vehicle I've owned. I also have the world's best mechanic. Thanks for this video.
I have a 2005 sequoia and i live in Illinois ( Bad winters) and my underside is in AWSOME shape!!! I have 200k on it runs and drives like a dream 😴!!!! Only issue is the tailgate handle … I’ll take that all day!!!!! Can’t beat a Toyota!!!!! Mine has been a beast!!!!
Engineers are artists some creations will be masterpieces some well ....... That said I have owned 7 Toyota's most reached 200k or more miles. What more can you ask for?
And the rear window getting locked up, wiper not working (usually found together). The rear hatch handle, locking mechanism go bad...other than that, she's correct. Replaced timing belt, water pump, tensioner pulley, spark plugs, lower ball joints, radiator, thermostat, rear wheel bearing, abs ring, seals and retainers, on my 2003 SR5 Sequoia with 196k Miles.
2002 with 370,000 miles - no exhaust manifold leak but, went throug the front brakes for years, and the rear latch, and just recently the Stupid Starter location. But It runs amazing we go back and forth from LA to San Diego regularly, no problems at all. She is thirsty though.
I have an '02 with 229k. Only major issues I've had to fix were the rear main seal, water pump went out/timing belt. Basic maintenance now, brakes, oil change.
I have watched videos on vehicles I HAVE or am interested - from YOU guys 1A-Auto for as long as I knew they were available-- LOVE YOUR VIDS-- always RIGHT TO THE POINT- with NO fluff and time wasted- and JUST FACT-- no "opinion"-- or jabber.. THANKS for the GREAT VIDEO as usual.

I’m telling you every time I go to sc coming from Ohio I can’t believe how clean some of the cars are. It’s really bad salt is such a killer. I recently saved up enough money to buy a pretty new car 3 years old and I seriously want to move just because I know the salt will kill it.
Will watch video after this to see if it will help me figure out some of the issues my 06 SR5 sequoia has. Ist of all I'll say it runs great and has 207,000 miles on it but the instrument panel is lit up like a Christmas tree. I think they're 5 warning lights and one of them flashes all the time. If that wasn't enough 2 weeks ago the alarm started going crazy. It goes off randomly, driving down the road the door locks sometimes will start locking and unlocking repeatedly extremely fast. But hey it still runs great!
As mentioned by others add in the rear hatch handle and I would also mention the frame rust issues. Other than that a good video for someone looking to buy a 1st gen sequoia.
These cars are pretty easy to fix as with most Toyota’s. Only issue is the damn last years model 06-07 has the damn transmission dip stick removed which Toyota really dropped the ball on that as it’s not easy changing the transmission oil. Also one grip is these cars suspension is a little stiff to my liking even though I have the air bags in the back. Essentially it is a truck but wished it was a little bit more soft on the bumps
I have an '01 Sequoia. The yaw rate sensor was an easy fix. Expensive part. It is under the console but directly below the cup holders for the rear passengers. Symptoms are the ABS/traction lights flashing, beeping sound, ABS brakes pumping, engine power reduces. Kind of scares the bejesus out of you the first time. It's a tough code to locate because it has to be happening to show the code. The recall is no longer active so you'll have to buy the part. Prepare for $300+.
gate latch and handle. Rusted frames,lower ball joint,exhaust manifold leaks, ran nearly 200k with the check engine light on. zero issues that way. Was like 4 different things it could be. chose to ignore it and drive it.
I have an 05 with about 187k on it. Runs great except for having to replace the tailgate latch last week, and my seat heaters seem to have a mind of they're own, just removed the fuse.
The battery light just went on mine. Replaced new battery, no erosion and connections are tight. Any ideas. Was reading about it, but is this a common issue.
If your planning in removing the lower ball joints. Make sure its toyota original part no aftermarket part or it will snap and also buy a pickel fork at autozone to make it easy to remove the lower ball joint if not your going to be banging all day trying to remove one of them. They are very seize. Hope this info helps😅
2003 Tundra also has a fuel filler neck issue that throws an evap code. It’s a known issue and Toyota isn’t addressing it. The permanent fix is a new filler neck but that’s a difficult repair by yourself. I just get a new OEM gas cap every time I need to pass smog. Two weeks later the check engine light comes on but I live with it.
I love your videos. Thank you for posting. You guys are amazing. I have a Toyota Sequoia 02 and I replaced the alternator and battery but it still dies and now wont start.

The C1223/C1247 codes aren't necessarily the Yaw sensor. Mine was the translate computer that enables the PCM to communicate with the ABS module. A used unit and 7 minutes labor fixed it. There are literally dozens of things that can turn the VSC/TRAC lights on.
i gave up and just removed the bulbs for them problem solved - every post ive read about this issue says the truck drives fine - the lights are simply annoying at that point
Surprised that thing is still on the road with all the rust. 06 owner with over 217k miles. Have not had one of those 4 issues (knock on wood) so far. Will 2nd the damn hatch. I have a metal one now. Did replace the rear window motor too. As for the motor, it doesn't burn any oil. Amazing.
Also there was a recall for recoding of the frame and underneath.. But it's too late now fortunately my only mine has very little response on it the one in the video looked loaded with rust which is common for 1st gen I knew about the ball joints. I'm replacing my ball joints with uniball I'm having a 3.5 total chaos Long travel lyft put on it.. But the codes are good to know I actually just turned to my 05 Sequoia in to Have A overland build on it.. And I told those guys to run it to see if any codes pop up.
I know it's an old video, but I have a question 04 sequoia code U2100 remote system fault. I seem to not find anything about it. And all the answers I got say SRS system code, but it's not for 04 toyota sequoia as that a manufacturer specific code. Any ideas? Oh yeah, I was trying to program a remote to unlock/lock doors, and it fails. Thanks
I have a 2005 Sequoia. CA vehicle. I purchased it in Chicago. Was built in Indiana where I live. Not one speck of rust. Problem is that if I brake fast the transmission goes to almost neutral and when I accelerate it will slam into gear like getting hit in rear. Toyota says it shows a shift solenoid issue. If I drive it responsibly I have no trouble with shifting, just if I stop fast. Toyota will probably want a replacement. They are always trying to get me. What do you think?
The fuel gauge on our 03 goes out intermittently. It seems to be a common issue but I'm not sure if it's the sending unit or something else according to the good old internet. Any advice on this issue? Thank you! I also need to replace the yaw sensor in ours.
My 02 sequoia is having the abs activate and the trac light come on when I accelerate from a complete stop, making it not want to accelerate. If I press the trac off button it doesn't do it. Any suggestions?
I have a 2005 Toyota sequoia with 360k miles. The pickup is a bit sluggish and it sounds like I dropped a bunch of change on the ground when I accelerate. It goes klink klink klink klink. Any suggestions?
I have an 02 sequoia that lets out alot of white smoke when i start it for 5-10 mins most of the time, light ticking until it warms up, ran a code reader and got 5 codes for cylinder misfire and 1 code for oxygen sensor low voltage, wondering if this is manifold, head gasket, or what. It doesnt overheat, the coolant looks as it should and stays at the right level, and no milkshake in oil cap, theres is some oil buildup in it though, can anyone help?
My 1st gen with the 4.7 hasn't been run in about 18 months. Any advice what I should do before I try to start it? I want to minimize wear, which I imagine will be huge unless I prep it before startup. Thanks!
Disable fuel pump or ignition and add marvel mystery oil in each cylinder so it will lube the piston rings. Crank car to get everything ready then put it all back together and you ready to gi
Another problem with these is the air injection system. The pump fails and sends debris into the air valves. They are a pain to replace on these, the intake manifold has to come off and the 2 rear valves are right up against the firewall. Also change the starter if you’re in there so you don’t have to do it twice.
I have a problem with a-trac not working. It's not correctly sending power to the wheel with traction. I've searched the internet and forums and found that a lot people have the same problem.

Hi there! I drive a 2006 Sequoia and I was wondering if I could get some help diagnosing an issue I'm having. Two actually. One, my car when on the highway gives me this subtle vibration as i am traveling at highway speeds, but on the town roads where i am from there is no issue. the other issue i have is where my battery gauge is reaching the bottom quarter of the meter when in park but when driving it shows a normal reading.
I have an 07 sequioa last of the 1st gen and that thing has some serious vibration. I have changed most of the suspension from shocks, stabilizer bushings end bushings right lower control arm ball joint with no luck. The u joints are good and bearings too any advice?

Alex Santana Any luck on finding out what it was I’m in a similar situation. My car idles with random vibrations while in park, neutral, and drive when at a complete stop. 2007 limited.
Yes that's exactly what my 2001 Toyota Sequoia limited is doing every one of those one through five. I'm going on 300,000 MI should I sell it or fix it?
Rear hatch and ball joint issues really love these first generation Sequoias. My great aunt had a Sequoia she bought it before Hurricane Katrina 🌀 now recently got a 2020 Highlander the Sequoia finally bit the dust she been wanted to get rid of it for another car. It was still in good shape just had few scratches around it think these run a long time.
Great reliable vehicles as are most toyotas, BUT , if considering one, most definitely check the frame for rust issues. They go bad just like the Tacomas. This should have been mentioned as #1 priority. If the frame is gone, all the other issues are irrelevant.
Here is one to add. Serpentine belt damaging the Crank sensor wiring harness. 2001 Sequoia - Died while driving... would start but then die... then eventually would not start at all. would crank but no start... Was NOT fuses, fuel pump, relays, anti theft, ECU, or fuel filter... Turned out that the wires to the crank sensor were damaged by the serpentine belt! repaired the wires and BINGO it runs!
My 2003 has 240k miles but I’ve only had it the last 3 years. It desperately needs new shocks. Rear brakes, alternator, battery, and new tires. Not bad for a short term backup vehicle but I’m thinking of keeping and putting some time and effort into it. Passenger side window is out of the tract, antenna broke off, drivers side door handle doesn’t work, and the infamous tailgate mechanism was replaced with the steel cable most people use. But that doesn’t work now either. All that on a 20 year old vehicle is no big deal considering it’s got a lot of life left in it . I see these car payments people will pay and I can’t imagine. $1500/month?? Never 👎

Drain( syphon ) out that old gas before trying to start .
Another problem with these is the air injection system. The pump fails and sends debris into the air valves. They are a pain to replace on these, the intake manifold has to come off and the 2 rear valves are right up against the firewall. Also change the starter if you’re in there so you don’t have to do it twice.
Good info!
Now I know why I’m missing Scotty , directing the concert with his hands
Great video thanks your comment
I have a problem with a-trac not working. It's not correctly sending power to the wheel with traction. I've searched the internet and forums and found that a lot people have the same problem.

Hi there! I drive a 2006 Sequoia and I was wondering if I could get some help diagnosing an issue I'm having. Two actually. One, my car when on the highway gives me this subtle vibration as i am traveling at highway speeds, but on the town roads where i am from there is no issue. the other issue i have is where my battery gauge is reaching the bottom quarter of the meter when in park but when driving it shows a normal reading.
Very good 👍
You're awesome thank you!
I have an 07 sequioa last of the 1st gen and that thing has some serious vibration. I have changed most of the suspension from shocks, stabilizer bushings end bushings right lower control arm ball joint with no luck. The u joints are good and bearings too any advice?

Alex Santana Any luck on finding out what it was I’m in a similar situation. My car idles with random vibrations while in park, neutral, and drive when at a complete stop. 2007 limited.
Yes that's exactly what my 2001 Toyota Sequoia limited is doing every one of those one through five. I'm going on 300,000 MI should I sell it or fix it?
Fix any safety issue and then drive it into the ground IMHO
@@callmebigpapa - That's exactly what I'm doing.
Rear hatch and ball joint issues really love these first generation Sequoias. My great aunt had a Sequoia she bought it before Hurricane Katrina 🌀 now recently got a 2020 Highlander the Sequoia finally bit the dust she been wanted to get rid of it for another car. It was still in good shape just had few scratches around it think these run a long time.
By far the BEST solution to the rear latch problems! Check it out!

Good to know. Muchas gracias
Great reliable vehicles as are most toyotas, BUT , if considering one, most definitely check the frame for rust issues. They go bad just like the Tacomas. This should have been mentioned as #1 priority. If the frame is gone, all the other issues are irrelevant.
nice !
Thanks !
Could you PLZ make a video on how to adjust sequoia E-brake? Mine is very weak NO UA-cam VIDS.

How do I know if I have timing chain or belt??
Here is one to add. Serpentine belt damaging the Crank sensor wiring harness.
2001 Sequoia - Died while driving... would start but then die... then eventually would not start at all. would crank but no start... Was NOT fuses, fuel pump, relays, anti theft, ECU, or fuel filter... Turned out that the wires to the crank sensor were damaged by the serpentine belt! repaired the wires and BINGO it runs!
How many miles you have on it?
I think you mean timing belt, not Serpentine belt. Crank and cam sensor are inside covers not outside.
One of my friends wants to get rid of his for 500 usd and I'm gonna need to put a timing belt on the sucker so this is helpful.
You make a good video.
My 2003 has 240k miles but I’ve only had it the last 3 years. It desperately needs new shocks. Rear brakes, alternator, battery, and new tires. Not bad for a short term backup vehicle but I’m thinking of keeping and putting some time and effort into it. Passenger side window is out of the tract, antenna broke off, drivers side door handle doesn’t work, and the infamous tailgate mechanism was replaced with the steel cable most people use. But that doesn’t work now either. All that on a 20 year old vehicle is no big deal considering it’s got a lot of life left in it . I see these car payments people will pay and I can’t imagine. $1500/month?? Never 👎
