Q: What grade gasoline does a 2002 Toyota Sienna run on? Official websites that has the recommended gas grade?
I am thinking about purchasing a 2002 toyota sienna, just want to see what type of gas is recommended by toyota.

A: The 2002 Toyota Sienna is suggested to run off of 91 octane fuel. Thats the fuel used when testing is done for horsepower, torque and fuel economy. The engine's computer and senors will adjust to using 87 octane with no problems and honestly you will probably never notice a difference, especially if you use a high quality fuel. Good Luck!!

Q: How do I change the belts on a 2002 Toyota Sienna V6?
I was expecting to find a single serpentine belt with an automatic tensioner pulley. I have changed serpentine belts on many models with no problem. But this Sienna has two belts, not one. One belt drives the power steering pump. The second belt drives the alternator and A/C. I don't see a tensioner pulley on either belt. Do these belts work like old-fashioned V-belts belts where you tension them by loosening something (like the alternator) and then using a pry bar to tighten the belt? I can barely see the power steering pump so it looks pretty tight, I welcome advice from anybody who knows this model. Thanks.

A: loosen the 14mm bolt on top of alternator. loosen 12mm bolt below alternator sitting sideways. adjust belt tension with 10mm bolt running through previous 12mm. loosen 12mm bolt on top of power steering pump. underneath vehicle loosen a 12mm bolt below p/s pump pull on belt to relieve tension, and pry carefully to increase tension. a bit of advice when reinstalling belts, the belt tension has to be just so, too tight and you will wreck the bearings in both pump and alt., too loose and the belts will squeal they have to be just right.

Q: Is a rebuilt air conditioner compressor for a toyota sienna 2002 as good as a new one?

Q: 2002 Toyota Sienna - I cannot remove the new driver's side axle I installed. It requires a 2001 axle. ?
With the 2002 axle installed the ABS and Air lights are showing on the dash due to a taper on the 2002 drive axle. Need to get it out and replace it with the 2001. I tried as well as a local front end alignment shop and neither of us could get it out. They suggested a transmission shop.
