Leaning Toyota

Some 2013-2016 Toyota Sequoia vehicles equipped with air suspension may exhibit a vehicle lean condition towards the left side.

Some 2013-2016 Toyota Sequoia vehicles equipped with air suspension may exhibit a vehicle lean condition towards the left side. The lean condition is noticed when the vehicle is parked. 

Make sure the fuel tank is full. Place the vehicle on an alignment rack to ensure that all four wheels are at the same level. Start the engine and cycle the suspension height, low to high to neutral. Allow the vehicle to sit at each height selection for 10 seconds. Measure vehicle ride height at rear of the point where the body meets the bumper at each rear wheel. The left rear point is referred to as measurement “A” and the right rear is measurement “B”. If B minus A is between 10 and 15mm or greater than 15mm, replace the left front coil spring.
