Separate names with a comma.
Haha. That's the million dollar question or in my case $100 (pads+rotor). But everytime I changed those pads, I noticed the pad on the opposite...
So every 30K miles I have to take the wheels off and check on those pins? Toyota definitely didn't think this through.
Ah, that's what it is. Toyota definitely should've stuck with those.
He said the pins look fine. He took both of the pins off and both of them looked pretty much brand new. However, he couldn't figure out why one of...
That's weird though. I also have a '05 Prius with 110K miles on it. It never that this type of problem. The only break related thing I did was...
I took the car to a trusted mechanic to figure out whether it's really frozen caliper or something else and this is what we found out --- The pad...
Yeah I'm gonna try to get both of those done together. Just wondering if it'd be worth getting new caliper or lubing the pins+the boot should be...
I think my calipers are frozen. Took the wheel off today and tried rotating the rotors and sure enough they were very tough to rotate. I think...
Thanks a lot folks. I've learned quite a lot from all of your inputs. I'm gonna take a look at the pin orientation and the pads this weekend and...
Thank you very much for all of your help. I definitely didn't know about that pin orientation. This has been really helpful. I'm gonna have to...
I'm not sure what you mean. Do you happen to have a picture of what you're talking about? Sorry I'm a visual person... :(
I think that's the issue. I've tried taking apart the whole caliper assembly, lubed the pin (eventually replacing the pin). I think next step is...
I've been doing the replacement and I think I've been doing it properly. I bought a rotating cube to push in the piston. It's almost impossible to...
Why would the brakes drag? What could be the possible cause(s)?
I replaced both rear brake pad sets and rotors at around 26K miles and then replaced the driver side of brake pads at around 45K miles. Now the...
My 2011 Toyota Prius has only 54K miles on it. I'm averaging about 9-10K miles annually in Boston's stop and go traffic. Even though I've only had...
I tried spec pressures as well. Nothing seems to solve the issue. I drove another Prius and didn't feel much bump. That's why I got suspicious.
I have 36K miles on the car. I usually do 37PSI on the front and 35PSI on the back tires.
I love my 2011 Prius. It's relatively quiet in low speed drive and can't beat those MPGs. One thing that does bother me though is how bumpy the...
I have been getting around 52/53 MPGs consistently for the past few months. I think that indicates I generally brake gently which is what I do on...
