About 2023 Toyota Sequoia Tires

Beyond the correct tire size, there are a couple of other factors to consider when buying Toyota Sequoia tires like how and where you drive, and how much you want to spend. When thinking about your driving conditions, consider where you live (mountains vs. city vs. countryside) and the kind of weather can catch you off-guard. (Watch out Tornado Alley!) It's not uncommon for drivers in states that experience all four seasons to buy more than one set of tires. one set for winter, one set for summer. Other drivers prefer to purchase one all-season set to limit trips to the tire shop and make sure their vehicle is prepared in the rain, sleet, snow, or sun!

Next, consider your driving style. If you're a diehard off-roader, you have very different tire needs than a highway commuter who doesn't leave the paved path. Browse Toyota Sequoia tires online or come to your nearby Firestone Complete Auto Care for help selecting the tire that's right for you.

Commonly Asked Toyota Sequoia Battery Questions

  • Why won't my Toyota Sequoia battery stay charged? A battery is in its final hour when it will no longer hold a charge. The battery may be too old. Or, you may have been leaving your car doors ajar and the cabin light at night. Stop by for a complimentary battery check at your favorite Firestone Complete Auto Care and get a handle on your car battery’s health.
  • How long can I expect my car battery to last? The typical 12-volt car battery may last three to five years, depending on the type of battery, the driving conditions, and how well the battery is maintained.
  • Why is there white, flaky stuff around my Sequoia’s battery post?  The white, flaky stuff that can build up around your Sequoia’s battery terminals is known as corrosion. Acid leaking from your vehicle’s battery post can have a chemical reaction with the air, leading to an accumulation of the white, powdery substance over time. Corrosion can affect the flow of electricity between your battery and the electrical system in your Sequoia, possibly causing issues with electrical performance and starting. If left unaddressed for long enough, it may even cause your battery to prematurely fail.

2023 Toyota Sequoia Oil Changes

Your 2023 Sequoia’s oil should be changed according to Toyota’s recommended oil change intervals. Outside of Toyota-recommended oil change intervals, your Sequoia may need an oil change if your check engine light is on, you hear engine knocking, sense an oil smell in the cabin, or notice an unusual amount of exhaust. You might need an oil change more frequently than what’s recommended by Toyota if you regularly haul heavy loads, drive in dusty areas, go off-roading a lot, or drive at low speeds for long distances.

Whether you need high mileage oil, synthetic oil, or conventional oil, you'll find the right 2023 Toyota Sequoia motor oil at Firestone Complete Auto Care.

Oil Change Q&A for Your 2023 Toyota Sequoia

  • What can cause the oil light on my Toyota Sequoia to illuminate?  Your Toyota Sequoia oil change reminder light might illuminate if it’s been too long since your last oil change. On the other hand, the oil pressure light might illuminate due to a clogged oil filter, a faulty oil pressure sensor, low engine oil levels, or a malfunctioning oil pump.
  • Can I change my Toyota Sequoia oil at home?  First off, changing your own oil isn’t as easy as you’d think. You’ll have to buy special tools and figure out a way to recycle the old oil properly. Getting a professional oil change reduces the risk of something going wrong during the service, but also helps your car perform down the road.
  • Why is my Toyota Sequoia exhaust smoke grayish or blue?  You could have an oil leak and have a case of burning oil. Looks like it’s time for a professional to take a look. The leak could be the result of worn valve seals, fried piston rings, or old cylinder walls.

2023 Toyota Sequoia Engine Tune-Ups & Maintenance

Regular engine tune-ups can optimize your Sequoia’s power on the road. Your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care location has several options to choose from when it comes to Toyota Sequoia engine tune-up services. The first is the standard Firestone Tune-Up. The standard Firestone Tune-Up includes new spark plugs (and installation!), a thorough inspection of engine components, and a lifetime parts warranty*. Another service option pays special attention to the filters in your Sequoia. Specifically, we replace the fuel filter and air filter. Our third service is a thorough cleaning of the fuel system. During this type of tune-up, we use a three-step process to get rid of harmful varnish, dirt, and carbon deposit buildup in your Sequoia’s fuel injectors, throttle body, and throttle plate. This can improve your fuel system’s performance (and therefore, your engine’s performance). Consider this when choosing a tune-up service for your Sequoia: your vehicle’s maintenance record and mileage can determine which service is best. Talk to a technician about your driving style, mileage, and service history to learn more about your vehicle's specific needs.

Common Engine Tune-Up Q&A for 2023 Toyota Sequoia

  • Will it hurt my Toyota Sequoia to drive with old spark plugs? When it’s time to replace the spark plugs, don’t delay. These small (but vital!) parts provide the electric spark that your car needs in order to start, and old spark plugs can prevent your car from starting at all. Replace spark plugs on time or about every 30,000 miles or so.
  • What does a puddle underneath my Toyota Sequoia mean? Don't ignore puddles of fluid under your Toyota Sequoia. It could signal a coolant leak, brake fluid leak, or an oil leak. Let any one of these leaks linger and it could cause engine damage.
  • How often should I clean my Toyota Sequoia fuel injectors? There is no hard and fast rule on how often fuel injectors should be cleaned, and it can vary based on driving habits and fuel type. Some manufacturers may suggest including a fuel system cleaning in your regular maintenance schedule. Or you may need to clean your fuel injectors as needed if you notice signs of a fuel system problem.

2023 Sequoia Toyota Steering & Suspension Services

When you first bought your 2023 Toyota Sequoia, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy. Perhaps your Sequoia feels bouncy, sways to one side, or makes an unusual noise when going over a speed bump. As soon as you notice that something’s “off” with your 2023 Toyota Sequoia, bring it in for steering and suspension repairs. We’ll get to the root of the issue and, if your Sequoia suspension system needs repair, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost.

2023 Sequoia Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • Why is my Toyota Sequoia bouncing so much?  If your shocks or struts are in bad shape, they can’t dampen road bumps like they should. This can cause your Sequoia to bounce more than usual.
  • Why does my Sequoia tilt forward when I hit the brakes?  As you brake, the forward momentum of your Sequoia combined with its weight sends a ton of force to its front end. A damaged or worn suspension system can cause the front end to compress and dip even further.
  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Toyota's suspension?  Maintaining your tires can help reduce strain on the suspension, nd also let you know when it's time to replace your tires. A faltering steering and suspension system could lead to uneven tire wear.

A/C Service for Your 2023 Toyota Sequoia

Technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care are ready to help you address your 2023 Toyota Sequoia A/C problems. In this A/C performance inspection, we’ll check out the current condition of your 2023 Toyota Sequoia A/C system to see if repair work is required. We’ll test overall system performance, check for any leaks, and measure the system pressure.

Questions About 2023 Toyota Sequoia A/C Systems

  • What’s making my Sequoia A/C put out warm air?  An A/C blowing hot air has several possible root causes. There could be an issue with your compressor clutch, a blown fuse, a leak, or a clog in the expansion valve.
  • What causes A/C system leaks? To put it simply, age and moisture are some of the main causes of leaks in your A/C. Over time, rubber gaskets and seals can wear out, which pushes much-needed refrigerant out of your Sequoia’s A/C system — and lets outside moisture get in, which can take a toll on internal A/C components.
  • What is causing my Sequoia’s A/C to only work when the car is in motion?  A problem with one or more of your air conditioning or electrical system components could cause the A/C to only work when your Sequoia is moving. You may be low on refrigerant, or the cooling fan could be faulty.

The transmission delivers power from the engine to the wheels so that you can drive on your terms.

If you don’t pay attention to Toyota Sequoia transmission trouble you could see your fuel economy decrease or find that your Sequoia isn’t working at all. Our technicians are trained to service 2023  Toyota Sequoia transmission systems according to vehicle manufacturer recommendations.

Questions About 2023 Toyota Sequoia’s Transmission

  • Does my Sequoia's transmission fluid need to be inspected?  Maintaining your Toyota Sequoia transmission fluid is one of the best ways to maintain your transmission's health. A general rule of thumb is to have your transmission fluid checked and changed about every 30,000 to 60,000 miles, but that timeline can change if you're hard on your Toyota. Leaks or low transmission fluid are easy to spot and affordable to repair.
  • Can my Toyota Sequoia leak transmission fluid?  Yes. Toyota Sequoia transmission fluid can leak over time and potentially cause transmission issues. Worn or damaged seals, a loose or damaged transmission pan, a cracked transmission housing, faulty transmission cooler lines, or an overfilled transmission could cause transmission fluid leaks.
  • Should I avoid driving my Toyota Sequoia if there is a transmission fluid leak?  Driving your Sequoia with a transmission fluid leak is highly discouraged. Transmission fluid is vital to the smooth operation of your transmission system, and a leak can put the entire system at risk. A transmission fluid leak may lead to decreased performance, overheating, and possibly even transmission failure.

Questions About Toyota Sequoia Radiators

  • What does the coolant light on my Toyota dashboard mean?  Pay attention to the temperature gauge and lights on your dashboard. If a low coolant warning light comes on or your dashboard temperature gauge keeps rising, it’s likely that your engine is about to overheat (and could leave you stranded on the road). Wait for the engine to cool down, then have your coolant system checked immediately at your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care.
  • Why is my Sequoia overheating?  Your Toyota Sequoia engine could overheat due to low coolant, a clogged radiator, a damaged water pump, a malfunctioning cooling fan, or a faulty thermostat.
  • Why does the radiator in my Sequoia sound like it’s rumbling or boiling? If your radiator sounds like it's boiling or rumbling, you could have air pockets in the cooling system of your Sequoia. You might also have a damaged radiator cap (super easy to fix!) or a clogged radiator.
