What to do if your Toyota Sienna is shaking?
To check it out, jack up the front of the vehicle (support it with jack stands) and then grasp the axle between the wheel and this middle joint.

The van had 70,000 miles and was in excellent condition. Shortly after taking possession (and a road trip), I noticed between 30-35 and 45-50 mph (especially 1,300 to 1,400 rpm) there was a louder “droning noise,” as Toyota calls it. Along with this noise was a vibration that reverberated throughout the cabin and was felt in my seat.
