| I have a 2009 toyota sienna with about 37800 miles on the engine. this is a certified pre-owned toyota and i bought it with approximately 33000 miles on it in november of 2010. at about 37000 i noticed a ticking noise coming from the engine at idle. it starts after the engine warms up; mostly after driving about 15 minutes. i took it to a toyota dealer for a diagnosis and the dealer stated they heard it and it's only normal engine sound. there is a tsb 0094-09 that addresses the issue. however, my vehicle does not fall within the affected production change effective vin according to the toyota dealer. as a matter of fact my sienna was manufactured about 2000 vehicles after the affected production change effective vin. i believe the problems related to tsb 0094-09 still exist beyond the affected vins in the tsb. toyota should really fix these problems. the engine loud ticking noise that is easily noticed is not normal. | |||
