Replying to: hewhohesitates (Oct 14, 2009 6:13 pm) You and "johnsienna" give a very accurate description of the transmission hesitation. This is definitely a problem with the 08. I also owned an 04 Sienna and did not have this problem. This hesitation has become much more noticeable after we reached 20-25k miles. It is intermittent but very noticeable. The dealer said they can not do anything unless there is a TSB. I am adjusting my driving to anticipate when to lighten the foot on the throttle. Hopefully a bigger transmission issue will not develop in the future. I have been happy with the Toyota Sienna otherwise. How this 08 transmission continues to operate and the service provided by Toyota will determine if we stay a Toyota owner in the future.

This problem just continues to carry on from one model year to the next. My 2009 Sienna is experiencing the same type of hesitations that are previously mentioned. I took it into a Toyota dealer last summer and they claimed they never experienced this hesitation on the test drive but they did a "reset" anyway and suggested that I make sure I keep changing my air filter at appropriate times. They refused to go on a test drive with me. I got the sense that they were aware of this type of problem but chose to ignore it like Toyota Canada prefers to do with this issue.
