the aerial problem is common on older/high milage gen 6s. Its down to plastic gear cog in the motor unit wearing out.
Trouble is you can't buy this seperate from Toyota who will charge a lot for the whole aerial motor unit.
If you want to keep it looking stock, it's possible to fit the power aerials from other Toyota vehicles you might see in the scrapyard. They used the same unit on lots of cars for a while, but obviously the newer you can find the better.
