I crossed the border in february 2009. No problem on Turkish side, rather complicated on the iranian side: the chief custom officer was supposed to sign a paper, guaratiing that the vehicule had been searched (a bike in my case). It took me three hours...and finally, for no apparent reason, the guy signed the paper. On the turkish side, many people obviously try to "help" you. Don't bother.
The border in itself is easy, it depends on what kind of rights people wearing a uniform think this uniform gives them...
