Gurus in the house, pls my Toyota Sienna, 2004 model is making a sound "kor" when its changing gear. A gear box mechanic was recommended. The mechanic drive tested the vehicle and said the lubricant in the auxiliary has tried and needed to lubricate it to know if the auxiliary is still okay. He bought oil and mixed it with grease and lubricated it, yet the noise has persisted. Meanwhile, the gear shifts perfectly, but only the noise that it makes.

Now, the gear mechanic says the auxiliary is bad and requires to be changed. According to him, the cost is 100,000 naira for a new auxiliary.

What do I really do? Advice me professionally, pls.

Hi, any codes on the van?

I had a similar problem, as if the car was slamming into gear. it ended up being a rogue throttle body. My check engine light pointed me in that direction.

Is the truck a 2/4WD? The prices of the front differentials are different.
The 4WD is more costlier.

When getting the next differential, pls do not agree to the differential fluid to be mixed as he did. Get the right fluid and use directly. Mixing it, affects miscibility, and its viscosity.

When at it, you could check out the driveshaft hoses, for ruptures, and all that. Relubricate if needed.


Hope you find some sort of succour here.

The vehicle is 4WD

Your mechanic is almost correct with the price.
