Question
The exterior sliding door handle on my 1992 Toyota Previa broke so I bought a new one from the Toyota dealer. To install the handle, I have removed the interior door panel - almost. I can't figure out how to remove the interior door handle, which is preventing removal of the panel. Does this require a special tool? Any other tips for the project would be appreciated. Thanks.
Answer
The handle is held on with a spring clip, the easiest way to remove it is to insert a thin towel or rag behind the door handle and move it around until it catches the open end of the clip and then pull it out, to reinstall it put the clip on the door handle and just push it on to the splined shaft.if
this unswer above it's wrong....
if you remove the panel already look inside where the handle its located you will have to remove hte clips that's attach to the wires then take a number 10 rachet and remove the bolts that's hold the handle to the door install the newone and reverse the prosigues ...

Well, that is how you remove the inside handle but not the outside handle. After removing the inside handle, remove the small screw in the upper part of the sliding lock, then remove the inside panel which is held on with snap connectors. There are two bolts that are accessed via holes in the inside door wall. Loosen these bolts with a socket then remove them with a magnetic Phillips screwdriver so they do not fall into the bottom of the door.
The handle is also connected to a cable which must be disconnected to remove the handle.
Replacement handles are sold at previaparts.com, eBay, and Amazon. The handle at previaparts.com costs a little more but it also includes the cable.

What would cause a squeaking noise in a 1991 Toyota Previa front wheel drive when you turn at slow speeds and when shifting at low speeds?
It is possible that the wear indicators for the brake pads are touching the rotor, indicating worn brake pads. They probably make the noise all the time, but at higher speeds, the pitch changes, and there is more road noise, so the problem is less noticeable. Depending on how much you drive, and traffic situations, etc, the noise should get a lot more more noticeable within the next couple of days. You will then have to replace the brake pads, ASAP. If not, the pads will tear up the rotors, and then they too will have to be replaced.
How do you remove the inside of the sliding door panel on a 95 Toyota Previa in order to change out the outside door handle?
I learned that the trick to removing the inside handle is to place a piece of cloth in the gap between the handle and cover and work it back and forth, eventually popping the clip off and sliding the handle out. It worked. You replace the clip by pushing with a flat screwdriver.

How do you replace the fuel filter located on a 1991 Toyota Previa?
The fuel filter is located under the vehicle in the area just below the sliding door. You do not have to jack up the vehicle to change this. Be prepared to spill a LOT of gas when removing the filter. Work fast. Don't do it indoors.

Can't open the sliding door on my 1991 Toyota Previa?
If it's cold out, the rubber seals around the door can freeze up, and it wont open. But if it's not cold out, then I would either power unlock all doors, or unlock via key. Open from inside, and have someone on the outside simultaneously trying to open the door. On the outside for leverage, and just in case the child safety lock is on, and from the inside just in case the lock mechanism didnt open up all the way. The handle could also be broken, so it would have to be removed. But I wouldn't damage it unless I had access to another door handle. Hope this helps.

There is an arm at the left side of the bottom roller. This arm can be bent or broken (like mine). Either get a new arm if needed or go to a dismantler and buy a used one and replace it. It is held in place with a single bolt (12mm I think).
