2006 Toyota Sienna Ce

[Guest Sundancefisher]

Toyota dealer says we need new front springs/shocks for $800 total.

 

Who else does this work in town that you would recommend... Dealers charge way to much if it indeed needs doing. After only 50,000 km I am more than a little annoyed.

Warranty 3 yrs/ 60,000 km so does that mean you are just over the 3 years??? If so that sucks.

I'm getting struts put on my 2002 CRV tomorrow at Integra tire on 29th here in the SE.

 

I heard very good things about them. I'll let you know how it goes.

Funny it must be all perception... my daily driver/work truck is a 7 yr old made in Mexico "domestic" w/430,000k and climbing w/no major issues, my third one of that make and mileage. Then again I usta own a coupla Japanese built 4bys that could climb straight up the side of a mountain but liked to have their head gaskets refreshed on a annual basis. <--poke--<

...sounds like in ur younger days you were a bit of a "red neck"..............Wolfie

 

[Tungsten]

Why would you need new springs?At only 50K I can see shocks but not springs.Unless you like to jump cars or something.I would get some other quotes.Maybe a new set of shocks is all you need.

If you open a dictionary to the page that says redneck, you'll see a picture of Taco.
