Q: i want to buy a 2006 Toyota sienna but people are telling me to buy a Honda but which minivan is better?thanx?
i dont want an expensive lunxory van i want a plane one like a toyota sienna C.E or a honda odyssey begginers model and my family is growing so i need help which one is better?

A: Doesn't matter, they are both good cars. I'd say get what you want, there isn't really a difference in the reliability of the cars. Just don't get the older Toyota Sienna's since they have the engine under the driver seat... To respond to the used car lot guy, bad transmissions are caused by people who do not know how take care of them. I have seen it happen on many vehicles that have never had their transmission serviced. Neither Honda or Toyota is putting Piece of Crap Ford Trans like Nissan is. So get what you want, just remember to take care of it or you'll end up going to the used car lot guy...

Q: 2006 Toyota Sienna Low Tire Pressure Light. ?
I have a 2006 Toyota Sienna and the low tire pressure light is on. How do I turn it off? So it would stop blinking. There is the right amount of air in the tires!

A: if the tires are with the appropriate pressure, then you have one of two situations: - If the warning light blinks once every second, the system may be malfunctioning, take the car to a dealer. - if the warning light blinks twice every second, you need to initialize the system with the reset switch. To do so: 1. Park the vehicle at safe, apply the parking brake, stop the engine. 2. Adjust the pressure of the tires to a specified level 3. Turn the ignition on 4. Push and hold the reset switch until the low tire pressure warning light blinks three times. (the switch is to the left of the steering wheel, a black little pushing button) Initialization is completed after driving at the speeds of 20 mph or over for about 8 hours total, when the system detects the normal tire pressure.
