Hi, the front brakes in my new Toyota Land Cruiser 300 squeal quite often (sound seems to stem from the front left side). The dealership replaced brake pads under warranty last week and the squeal disappeared. However, it came back after 3-4 days. Dealership says that faulty brake pads is a...

Hi All, I have a 2020 Corolla LE at about 35k. I was told by a Toyota dealer not to bleed my brake fluid because if I happened to get any air in the lines that the ABS system would disable and only Toyota or a service shop could reset with a factory scan tool. Is this correct? Has anyone bled...

Hey all, I just got my 2021 Venza LE about a week ago. Recently, I fear I have run into trouble when braking, specifically when I am at a full stop and release the brake to drive again. When I release the brake, it's almost as if I can hear the brake clamp releasing-it makes a very distinctive...

Hi all. First post...I have a 2003 9th. Generation 1.4 VVTi Corolla 5 door hatchback (Made In Japan for the UK market) that has a weird fluctuation of the brake pedal issue? When cold, I will drive say a quarter of a mile, then the brake pedal will drop about 1cm. upon application, with the...

Hi, everyone! First time poster here. I own a 2006 Matrix XR, 151k miles with rear drum brakes. Since I bought this car earlier in the year I have been struggling to get a firm brake pedal. Do other 1st gen Matrix owners feel like the brake pedal falls several inches before feeling much...

I need some help with my 2008 Toyota Corolla S. Everything is stock. I have wasted countless time and much money trying to fix my brakes.

Buzzing noise coming from dash when in park and braking Hi All! My 2008 Toyota Highlander makes a buzzing noise (kind of like a fly) that comes from the dash when I start the car or press on the break in park. It’s not very loud. I’ve done some research and it seems to be coming from the...

Hi! I have bought a 2004 Toyota Rav4 and I am in love with it. It was one-owner, just 72k miles when I bought it in March! Brakes were awesome (I just knew that new rear pads would be needed in about 3 months) but the first time it got hot/humid and I turned on the AC...they went soft! Creep...

I brought my 98 4runner in because the brakes were completely shot. They replaced the brake booster and the brake lines however when I picked it up today they said that I may need to replace my rear brake drum, but overall my truck’s brakes still suck. They are really stiff at the top and then...

When I go to press the brake pedal to stop ABS kicks on, happens almost all the time. No lights are on when it happens or when it doesn't happen. I have replace all struts, both tranny speed sensors, and front wheel speed sensors. Please help if you can! I don't know what to do now.

For a few weeks I have noticed that when I brake, sometimes I feel a slight 'pop', 'pop', 'pop' sensation from the pedal (this is the best way I can think of to describe it!). I haven't noticed any deterioration in the stopping power of the brakes. All rotors and pads seem okay. I was thinking...

My 2019 Avalon Touring has approx 48,000 miles. At around 25,000 I took in it for a service and mentioned it was shaking when stopping. They checked the brakes and said the front brakes needed replaced and did it under warranty. I can’t remember at the moment if they did anything with the...

Hello, I am hoping someone can tell me what the minimum rotor thickness is for the front and rear rotors on a 2006 Sequoia Limited 4wd with 17 inch wheels. Thank you.

For a while now my 2007 Toyota Hylander hybrid has been saying VSC system not working. The car was driving fine, so I ignored it. My front brake pads needed replaced, so I replaced them and machined the rotors. I felt like that process went well. I did not change the calipers or bleed the...

So my son recently had his 2000 v6 camry in for some exhaust work. He also asked mechanic to inspect for some shaking with the steering which seems to get a bit worse when braking. Mechanic says two calipers are seized; one in back, one in front. Also pads in rear need to be replaced. Wants...

I’m lookin to get a whole new brake kit front and rear. I’ve thought about getting new calipers too. I’m on the hoonigan website and I can find the front calipers but the rear only shows for 2010-2011 will the rear calipers fit my 2012 4cyl???
