2016 Toyota Sienna Check Engine Light Codes

Common codes for the 2016 Toyota Sienna include P0420 (catalyst efficiency), P0300 (random/multiple misfires), P0442 (EVAP small leak), and P0171/P0174 (system too lean). Left untreated, P0300 can cause piston or catalytic damage; repairing misfires quickly prevents engine wear and restores fuel economy.

EVAP leaks like P0442 typically require minor parts and labor when addressed early. At Coggin Toyota at the Avenues in FL our service team provides a clear cost estimate for each code’s likely repair and the long-term saving from prompt action. We use genuine Toyota parts, certified technicians, and diagnostic equipment calibrated to Toyota standards.
