Toyota Avalon Disc Brake Caliper in US

The disc brake caliper on the Toyota Avalon is the hydraulic clamp at the centre of your Avalon disc brake system. Every time you press the brake pedal on your Toyota Avalon, brake fluid pressure forces the caliper pistons outward, squeezing the brake pads against the rotor and generating the friction that stops your vehicle. A seized, leaking, or sticking caliper on the Avalon interferes with that process at the source, causing uneven braking, accelerated pad and rotor wear, and pulling to one side that worsens over time.

Signs of a Failing Disc Brake Caliper on the Toyota Avalon

• Toyota Avalon pulls strongly to one side during braking, a seized caliper on one side applies more force
• Brake pedal on your Avalon feels soft or spongy and improves after pumping, caliper piston seal leaking
• One brake pad on your Toyota Avalon axle wears significantly faster than its partner
• Brake drag on the Toyota Avalon, vehicle feels like it is fighting resistance at normal road speed
• Visible brake fluid leaking from the Avalon caliper body or around the piston boot
• Grinding or scraping from one Toyota Avalon wheel that persists after confirming pads are not worn

New OEM-Spec vs. Remanufactured Calipers for the Toyota Avalon

New OEM-Specification Calipers for the Toyota Avalon

New OEM-specification calipers for the Toyota Avalon are brand-new units manufactured to the exact piston dimensions, seal specifications, and material tolerances of the original Avalon factory part. They offer the longest service life on your Toyota Avalon and are the strongest choice for higher-mileage Avalon vehicles or those operated in high-corrosion environments.

Remanufactured Calipers for the Toyota Avalon

Remanufactured calipers for the Toyota Avalon are original caliper housings completely disassembled, cleaned, inspected, and rebuilt with new pistons, seals, boots, and hardware. Quality remanufactured units perform identically to new calipers for most Toyota Avalon replacement applications and offer excellent value.

Frequently Asked Questions - Toyota Avalon Disc Brake Caliper

Should I replace brake calipers on my Toyota Avalon in pairs?

It is generally recommended to replace calipers as an axle pair on the Toyota Avalon, both left and right on the same axle, to maintain balanced braking. If one Avalon caliper has failed, the caliper on the opposite side has experienced the same service conditions and is likely at a similar stage of wear.

How long do disc brake calipers last on a Toyota Avalon in US?

Toyota Avalon calipers typically last 100,000 to 150,000 kilometres, but American road salt and moisture accelerate corrosion of Avalon caliper guide pins, slide pins, and piston seal boots, often causing premature failure on the Toyota Avalon well before that figure.

Can a sticking caliper on my Toyota Avalon damage my brake pads and rotors?

Yes. A Avalon caliper that does not fully retract keeps the brake pad in partial contact with the rotor between stops, generating constant friction and heat on your Toyota Avalon. This rapidly wears both the pad and rotor surface on your Avalon and generates enough heat buildup to damage adjacent components over time.
