Just last year I switched out the original Yokohama tires for Pirelli and this year I switched out the original front brake pads. My mechanic said the rear pads still has life in them so deal with it next time. I thought it would cost a lot, but it was just Toyota parts so price was $120 or so.... and its going to be another 10 years before needing another change assuming similar driving habits.
My 2005 Prius needed brakes, I paid $7 for pads and $12 for each rotor. That's $31 for pads and rotors.
Just dropped 4500 on brakes (rotors, fluid, pads), tyres, and an oil change on my 2022 Toyota Supra for regular maintenance.
Camry or corolla hybrids. I have cameys in my fleet that have done half a million KMs needing nothing more than oil, filters, tyres and a single set of brake pads
Just did the brakes on my 1994 4runner. Discs were smooth, no rust or grooves. Way above spec, the pads must have been soft. I put in some much better quality pads and did not turn them.
Genuine Toyota Brake Pads hindi naman araw araw pinapalitan yan and safety ang nakataya dyan. I’m not saying hindi maganda yung mga replacement brands pero by using Genuine Toyota Brake Pads 100% sure ka na ok ang quality yun kasi ang binabayaran sa Genuine parts yung peace of mind na pumasa yung parts nayan sa standards ng Toyota.
Sa mga brake pads specifically may mga replacement brake pads na naninira ng brake rotors.
At the moment i drive a 2014 volvo v60 it brakes for me when going under 30 mph and something comes in front of me and I brake (too) late has lots of dings and dongs imho as I used to mainly drive pre 2006 and pre 2000 cars.
Since we know Volvo has undersized the brake pistons for their SPA vehicles, leading to issues with pulsation. Instead of upsizing the brakes, they have released several pad revisions, have the latest pads slowed the occurance of brake pulsations?
It had about 35k miles on it and the service rep said it failed due to the front brakes being worn down to the rotors.
I disagree with most on daily driving the 80. I find it reasonably accessible to drive regularly with one exception: the brakes. Most people are used to their cars stopping at a moments notice and the stock brakes in the 80s suck.
