We purchased a 2004 Sienna in 2012 with 161K KM's, and it now has 347K KM's.
While under the van yesterday I noticed pink coolant dripping from back of engine. Yeah ... that's not a good sign. I like my coolant leaks near the front of the engine, where I can fix them. lol
It appears to be externally leaking coolant from head gasket. It's not evident in the engine (combustion or oil). But it's the death knell for a vehicle of this age / KM's, as it won't be worth fixing. I will try a stop leak product but that's a bandaid fix.
I called a shop familiar with Toyota's and he said this isn't a common problem.
