Check engine light comes on several
times. I had to go back to the dealer
several times until they finally fixed
the problem. It was a clogged vacuum
line inside the cylinder head. This
happened at 120,000 miles.
Air-conditioner evaporator clogged up.
I replaced the evaporator. 150,000 miles.
Brass on the starter needed replacement
at 150,000 miles.
Catalytic converter needed replacement
at 75,000 miles. It was rattling.
The van is a very good means of
transportation.
A bit underpowered. I am considering
installing a nitrous oxide system to
boost the performance.
I was amazed on how it handle well.
We used it on our trip to the mountains
and it took on the curves pretty well
with minimal roll despite it's tall
profile.
Just to let you know that there is a Toyota Van Owner's enthusiasts site, if you're interested to join, the address is : http://www.toyotavanpeople.com --just to let you know, they don't have many Previa Enthusiasts, but hopefully it will increase with time!
