I bet its just the plunger/solenoid contacts. Theyre probably $40 from Toyota. Very common problem. Yank it off yourself and replace the contacts. Sand up any rough spots on plunger with fine emory cloth. While your at it check out the rest of the starter (armature, brushes etc). YOur looking at few bucks I bet for a "reman" if you can find one you trust.

There is a shop in N Van called Aers (sp?) Electric I think - excellent work, excellent prices for this job.
