  1. Corolla 9th Gen/1st Gen Matrix (2003-2008)
    I recently replaced the clutch in my 2004 corolla, and shortly after getting it back on the road I noticed it felt like I had a sticking brake caliper on the front driver's side. With the car up on a jack the wheel wouldn't spin freely after compressing the brakes. Sure enough the caliper piston...
  2. Camry 1st and 2nd Gen (1983-86) and (1987-91)
    88 Camry LE My first car with drum brakes (on the rear.. or anywhere), butI think they’re approaching their end. Once I’ve been driving for a bit and they’re warmed up, I hear clicking. Front pads are almost out too. Planning on changing it all. Likely going a bigger. Also want to convert to...
  3. Camry 3rd and 4th Gen '92-'01, Solara '99-'03
    So I've had my solara for about a year and a half in that span I've warped 3 pairs of rotors and im on my 4th, I've replaced the pads every time as well. I've replaced both calipers. I've flushed the brake fluid. I don't drive it hard or ride the brakes at all because I'm super cautious now, I'm...
  4. RAV4 3rd Generation (2006-2012)
    My 2007 RAV4 sport has been almost indestructible - nearly 290k miles and still running strong. Recently, the 4 fault lamps pop up intermittently. When illuminated, the car drives fine but the cruise control will not work and when applying the brakes it sometimes feels like the ABS is engaging...
  5. Venza Gen2 Hybrid (2021+)
    Hi All !!! Got my brand new Venza, after 3 days i started to noticed the brake makes this groan noise (Also vibrates) when i release the brake slightly from a full stop. The noise is specially loud when i back out from my parking space which has a slop. Does anyone have the same issue and...
  6. Corolla 12th Gen (Hatch 2019+/Sedan 2020+)
    After almost 4 years and 75K km ~ 45K miles, I replaced brake rotors and pads all around. Fronts inner pad was under 3mm and rear pads were at about 4-5mm, rotors heavily scored. Brakes were serviced once about two years ago and dealer replaced the rotors then, not the pads... Old brakes (front...
  7. Camry 3rd and 4th Gen '92-'01, Solara '99-'03
    Some ice came down all of last week and I started driving as the road started getting better but my ‘95 Camry DX’s E-Brake has stayed on even when I disengage it. It does turn off every now and then usually when getting to 2000-2500 rpm in 1st gear and 1500-1750 on 2nd. Has anyone had this...
  8. Highlander 3rd Generation (2014-2019)
    Just searched for info about vacuum boosters on the 2GR-FKS engines. Came across this thread: 2017 Highlander Brake Failure The thread starter paid a net (after a partial refund from Toyota) $1520.00 to have his failed booster replaced. Replacement is called for in the maintenance requirements...
  9. Camry 5th and 6th Gen '02-'11, Solara '04-'08
    Ok so I've searched around and maybe I'm wording it wrong and sorry if if it's been discussed before. Anyhow first time posting. So I changed my rear rotors on a 2010 Camry V6. Brake job went flawless, the new rear pads seemed a little tight though. Anyway next day after I got in the car and...
  10. Camry 6th Gen - Hybrid (2007-2011)
    I have a 2008 Camry Hybrid. As the title suggests, I'm wondering if there's a way to disable regenerative braking temporarily. The reason for this, ironically enough, is that the regen braking apparently works a bit too effectively - it does such a great job that my mechanical disk brakes are...
  11. Prius Prime 2nd Gen (2017-2022)
    I have a 2021 Prius that has had a creaking that occurs intermittently when driving. It’s definitely a noise. It doesn’t happen when using the brake pedal, it only happens when the pedal isn’t in use. I isolated it to the brake because when I put my foot behind the pedal, I can stop the sound...
  12. Camry 5th and 6th Gen '02-'11, Solara '04-'08
    Front driver brake stuck and cought fire. Replaced brakes and caliper. Didn't work, brake still stuck. Replaced hose, didn't work. Replaced master cylinder, brakes worked normal for a day. Now the driver front brake won't release again. Anybody got any ideas? I hate to replace the power booster...
  13. Venza Gen2 Hybrid (2021+)
    I got an 2021 Venza last October. Recently, I noticed that the brake would make knocking noise while I was applying it on the uneven surface from 50 to 0. However, it happened randomly. I toke the vehicle to dealer but they couldn’t find anything. Does anyone has similar issue. thank you
  14. Highlander 1st Generation (2001-2007)
    I have an 06 v6 toyota highlander with 124k miles and whenever i engage the parking brake for a few minutes then disengage it, there is a loud squeaking coming from the back tires and it will not go away until after driving around for a bit. What is the cause?
  15. Avalon 3rd Generation (2005-2012)
    Hi all, I upgraded the front brakes on my 2007 Avalon XLS with 220k miles to the bigger ones from the 2008-2018 Highlander! Also the same as Sienna 2011-2018, Venza, RX350, etc. Posting so we have more documentation; a couple have posted but no threads with results. I spent about $120 on the...
  16. Corolla 10th Gen/2nd Gen Matrix (2009-2013)
    Hi, can someone tell me if the Corolla has independent brakes or not? To elaborate, after replacing (both) front calipers, do I need to bleed all 4 wheels, or only the front ones? It's not out of laziness, but some top worker in the service overtightened the lug nuts so badly that I broke two...
  17. RAV4 4th Generation (2013-2018)
    Hi, I am trying to replace the front brake pads and rotors for my wife's 2018 RAV 4 LE (made in Japan). After doing some research, I realized the model made in Japan and Canada are using different rotor (maybe pads too?). Toyota's website show different part numbers. And to make things worst, it...
  18. Camry 3rd and 4th Gen '92-'01, Solara '99-'03
    Need to change my front brakes and rotors. Got the rotors, cool. Got the pads (got a decent deal on Akebonos), cool. Got the hardware... What are these for? Asbestos I can figure, they seem like they're designed to clip onto the pad and ride on the hardware that doesn't have extra shims? Am...
  19. Venza Gen1 (2009-2016)
    Hi friends, I got a used 2016 Venza LE FWD three weeks back. I changed the rear brakes and pads as soon as I got the car. Yesterday I changed the wheels for winter tires, and then I noticed a sound coming from rear wheel/s when I drove at low speeds. I have attached the recording of the...
  20. Tercel, Paseo, Starlet, and Sera Forum
    Recently I had my clutch go out on me on my 1998 toyota tercel manual and my suspicion was confirmed when I brought it in to the shop. They checked it out and found the clutch (and probably the flywheel since its still stock at nearly 300k) and also they found a leak within my brake lines. But...
