May I ask how you put 200K in 4 yrs - do you live inside the car!!
Uber full time. Purchased in November 2020 so that's more than 4 years. Got a really sweet deal on it, the good daysMay I ask how you put 200K in 4 yrs - do you live inside the car!!
Do you think the covid was the culprit?Glad you got a good deal the car looks nice and solid. I just bought a RAV4 and quality has decreased dramatically - it will be my last Toyota!! It’s scary to go over 100MPH on my new car it’s poorly made!!
I have seen some really bad fuel dilation on this engine here on this forum, maybe your driving habits are different, you don't short trip the thing. My heads up was for the short trippers
I wasn't doing short tripping prior, but I do now. I'll be sending in an oil sample in a week or 2 and will post the resultsI have seen some really bad fuel dilation on this engine here on this forum, maybe your driving habits are different, you don't short trip the thing.

I got an OBD 2 bluetooth reader a couple months back and gave been watching oil temps on our 2025 Rav4 Hybrid a bit. Running M1 0W-20 EP.My oil temperature never gets above 170°, so I don't think shear was responsible for that drop. My oil temperature looks like that most of the time. So I wonder how a 30 grade will behave at those temperatures lol.

Huh?No front diff fluid because it doesn't have
On Sienna, it is hard to beat Toyota brakes in the race to the bottom.I ordered the pads and rotors so I'll change them in a couple of months. Then the van should be good till at least 350,000 miles. Or maybe the quality of these ones are not as good as the ones that came from Factory

Fuel dilution seems to be a Sienna thing. Driving conditions are a key factor. I've never had any signs of fuel dilution, by smell, oil level or UOA with my D-4S engines, over almost 400,000 miles.Fuel dilution is a problem on this engine, you need to remember that. I drive the heck out of this thing and fuel still showed up in a couple of my oil reports. In the last report, Amsoil looks thin although it is the thickest 0w-16(thicker than Mobil 1 ESP 0w-20) I know of. That means fuel. So you have to be very careful, specially in the winter. Maybe let the filter stay and suck the oil out every 2,500 oils?

50k a year. On the hiway alot. Any engine could do thatJust wanted to share my experience with this engine. It has been running strong, I am just a little under 200k miles on my 2021. I know some who have hit the 300k mark as well. Oil change every 5k miles and coolant every 60k.
Buy a Toyota blindly with this motor, it is one solid little unit.
Cheers!
No fuel dilution issues with our 22 Camry 2.5 either. It sees a mix of both city and highway. I also run a 30 weight in it.Fuel dilution seems to be a Sienna thing.
