139000 mi US $2500

Cooling issue ultimately was a full head gasket job, plus repairs to the radiator. There ended up being a gap about 2 millimeters thick between the head and the block. Had to replace the head of one side. Also needed emissions repairs. Emissions system failing to properly work. Suspected issue with catalytic converters. So far we've tried running through several tanks of Shell gas as it has the most detergents in hopes that it would be cleaned out. No luck with that so far. Next step is replacement, that will be done in the next month or so.

138000 mi US $2000

So we've finally come to the end of a long Odyssey. No pun intended. We ended up taking the vehicle to a new mechanic who removed the entire engine, disassembled it and cleaned it, resealed the whole thing. Reinstalled it and it's running better than it has since we first purchased it. It cost about $2000 dollars, but the work is completely guaranteed and the peace of mind for our family is worth it. Only piece of advice I have, get a second opinion on work done by a mechanic who's not completely up front with you.

Vvti rattles on startup

195000 mi US $500

Water pump was squeaking. Replaced water pump with OEM Toyota pump, as well as OEM Toyota thermostat. Old water pump gasket came apart and took hours to remove old material from engine block. Previous owner had a mechanic install a non OEM Toyota water pump which uses a felt gasket. Bad choice. Replaced bearings on serpentine belt pulleys and tensioner. (A total pain but much cheaper than new idlers and tensioner from Toyota.) Also replaced serpentine belt.

198000 mi US $35

Vaccum lines running to airbox were split and worn. Replaced vacuum hoses as well as installed new OEM Toyota engine air filter and Denso cabin air filter. I recommend only Toyota OEM engine oil filter as other filters don't fit well and aren't much cheaper.

134000 mi	The car had been into the dealer for a simple oil and filter change the previous month. It had a very slow oil leak after the change.

The end result was a faulty oil filter which was replaced at no charge to us and the oil was topped at for free.

98000 mi US $226	Check noise from engine;They determined it was the Power Steering pump whining. They did intake cleaning and intake filter replacement but MPG remains very low at this time...about 13.5 mpg. Mechanic suspects bad catalytic converter.
