Brake pads - $90 for parts
I had this symptom as well 2 months ago because my brake pads were worn out. The rotors was fine so only had to replace the brake pad and the braking vibrations went as well.
DIYer advice: buy Toyota pads/rotors from your local dealership's parts counter. Take a photo of your VIN for the parts guy. Once you're in their system, buying parts will be easy. You'll typically pay 20%-25% more for OEM parts, but do you really want to buy cheap pads/rotors?
My oem brake pads, (‘23 A-91MT) are getting low ish after a year of driving her and going to the track. OEM ones seem expensive but they did last a hpde 1/2 driver a year.
I'm on my second one, a '19 Prius Prime I bought new has 507k miles on it today. About to do the first brake job on it soon.
2012 Prius, 202k miles, still with original brakes.
2017 Prius Prime, 110k miles, still with original brakes.
Both inspected annually by our mechanic. Both still going strong.
based on the inputs so far, I have decided to take the Sequoia (price: around $5000, he takes care of the brake pads and rotors.
For JUST street driving (no canyon runs or autox), they are fine. But, they are NOT performance pads, so you don't want to be running on them if you're rcing the car or really hammering the brakes when you drive.
I have some noise from the mintex pads as well. Im switching them all out soon.
You wanna avoid mintex red box these days. The passat pads have a slight problem with burning up under hard braking.
