2012 Toyota Sequoia Service and Repair Manual

Keyed to the 2012 Toyota Sequoia's own year, engine and trim combination, this factory service and repair manual carries the torque figures and service sequences Toyota published for this truck and the V8s it left the plant with, the 5.7L V8 (3UR-FE and 3UR-FBE) and the 4.6L V8 (1UR-FE), rather than numbers that merely look close because they came from an adjacent model year.

Known issues on the 2012 Sequoia. Four recalls are on federal record for this model year. Two of them land on the same part, the hydraulic power assist steering gear: one covers JTEKT power steering gear assembly service parts supplied for 2007-2021 Tundra and 2008-2022 Sequoia, the other covers 2008-2022 Sequoia and 2007-2021 Tundra vehicles whose power steering gear assembly may have been manufactured incorrectly. In both, an oil leak may cause a sudden loss of power steering assist, increasing the risk of a crash. A third covers the frontal air bag sensor and control module, where the front passenger seat occupant sensing system can be out of calibration. The fourth is a labeling recall, in which an inaccurate label could lead to owners overloading their vehicles and tires. Owners have logged 33 complaints for the year and Toyota has issued 153 technical service bulletins.

Whether you are hunting a power steering leak, verifying occupant sensing calibration after seat work, or setting a load rating straight, it holds you to Toyota's own procedure and the specification written for the 2012 Sequoia.
