  1. Scion xB Engine, Tech, & Performance
    Hi everyone. I'm new here. Apologies if I'm posting this in the wrong place; please let me know and I'll try to correct it. I'm by no means an expert here; I've never done (or considered) something this extensive before. I have a 2015 5-Speed xB with 42,000 miles. It's in pristine shape. I also...
  2. General Scion xB Discussion
    Hi - I have 2013 Gen 2 XB. LOVE it. I particularly love the horsepower of the 2.4L 158 engine. But, I am moving and need some money. Since I can get around $8500 for it, I'm wanting to buy another XB at around $4k and pocket some cash. I will need a rack as I'm moving in my car. I haven't had...
  3. Scion xB Performance & Tech Help
    I have a 2011 Scion xB RS 8.0 I was in cruise control around 70 mph when I felt the car slow. It felt like the engine was braking the car because the slowing was not a lack of acceleration, but a forceful slow. I tried to accelerate, but the RPMs were unresponsive, and were jerking around...

    This week, my 2005 xB rejected an oil filter put on it by Jiffy Lube in April. It was slowly building up pressure until it finally popped off... and my xB stalled in the middle of an intersection as a result! Engine will start, but is burnt up from that lack of oil... klunks and sputters down...
  5. Scion xB Engine, Tech, & Performance
    Hi, I'm a girl and totally don't know what I'm doing at all. I just want to make the clear from the start. I just bought a 2005 Scion xB and of course, the day after I buy it it's starting to do this vibration when I let my foot off the gas. It seems like the vibration is in the dash, but since...
  6. Scion xB Engine, Tech, & Performance
    PREFACE: I'm new here, know very little about cars in general and am humbly presenting my tale in order to become better informed. Only July 17, 2015, my 2005 XB engine died while I was driving. I towed the car to a Toyota dealer for service and was charged for a water pump, Toyota brand...
  7. Scion xB Engine, Tech, & Performance
    Bought my beautiful 2005 Polar White xB a couple of weeks ago. It is sluggish on acceleration and is generally loud. I've had an xB before, though, so I know this is par for the course. On our 2004 xB we had a few years ago, we took it to a guy who fixed a leak in the hose. I figured it was...

  9. Scion xB Engine, Tech, & Performance
    Hi guys, I'm new to the thread posting but I've been on here plenty of times for insight. What I still haven't been able to figure out is my oil situation. I drive an 04 xb and my car is constantly burning through my oil. I have no leaks for sure I've checked like a million times and plus I park...
  10. Scion xB Engine, Tech, & Performance
    In the past two weeks I've had the same problem happen with my car, the gas pedal starts pushes down to the floor on it's own and the engine accelerates with it. I drive a manual so all I did was hit the clutch and put it in neutral and after about 10 seconds the gas pedal released and...

About four months ago i ran my dropped xb through a flooded intersection...the engine stalled and i thought it was the end of it but it started back up pushing a cloud of white smoke out the exhaust.

    Hey everyone, I am in the market right now for a 2004-2007 xB. I've been looking around and wanted to get feedback from current Scion xB owners. My question is how long do Gen 1 xB engines (GENERALLY) run for? Have any of you come across any big problems once you hit a certain mileage point...
