  1. Corolla 7th Generation (1993-1997)
    This is my first post here, and maybe a dumb question. I'm DIY/mechanical, but not confident about working on my car. A 1995 Corolla station wagon that I've been driving since 2000. A great, reliable vehicle. I need to adjust my drum brakes. Been watching some YouTube videos, and want to...
  2. Corolla 11th Gen Sedan 2014-19, Scion iM 2016-18
    Hey hope I can get some kind respond. But i have a 2015 Coralla le. Is it possible to convert the drums to disc and if so can i please get a how to and list of parts.

    Hi does anyone have a 9th Gen Corolla that was made in Japan with drum brakes? Is the spring clip (that prevents the self adjusters from moving) on the front or back of the shoes? If possible can someone please send me a picture? Thanks

  6. Camry 3rd and 4th Gen '92-'01, Solara '99-'03
    I have a 2001 Camry LE 4 cylinder US built. I had the hardest time finding the correct size pads for the front between Advanced Auto and Auto Zone. After finally figuring those out, I removed the first rear tire and found drum breaks. These retailers obviously have no idea what I am looking for...
  7. Camry 5th and 6th Gen '02-'11, Solara '04-'08
    Hello all, I have a 2004 Toyota Camry and i was wondering about switching from drums to discs. That is what my car looks like (except with a carbon fiber hood now and also no Yankees stickers). I have drilled and slotted rotors in the front and it would look very nice in the back as well...
  8. Yaris/Scion iA, Vitz and Echo Forum
    So I decided to replace my rear drum brakes and rotors, not easy unless you've done it before on the same car. I had to figure it out as I did it, good thing I took pictures. Here is how to do it and save yourself a big headache and a lot of money. Parts were very cheap to replace, I got the...
  9. Corolla 9th Gen/1st Gen Matrix (2003-2008)
    This is my first time posting here, I have a knocking sound coming from my rear left drum brake. It seems to be about once per tire rotation or so, so it slows as you slow down and as it reaches a stop the last sound will sound more like a creak or groan as the sound slows with the car. At speed...
  10. Corolla 10th Gen/2nd Gen Matrix (2009-2013)
    Hi, My 2009 Toyota Corolla LE is squeaking. The noise is coming from its rear break -- driver side. It happens only at a low speed when pressing the brake half way to slow down the car until it stops. Only 60-70% of the time though that it has the noise and only when going slow in the traffic...
  11. Camry 3rd and 4th Gen '92-'01, Solara '99-'03
    Hey TYN! Been a while but I have a few questions about fixing some annoying rust that's been building on the drum brakes of my 98 camry. Just to clear it up I'm not looking to make anything stand out, but just get rid of that less than appealing rusty look. I'll go with some high temp...
