Toyota Avalon Disc Brake Caliper Kit in US

When a caliper on the Toyota Avalon seizes, leaks, or drags, the damage does not stop at the caliper. A partially seized caliper on your Avalon keeps the brake pad in continuous contact with the rotor, wearing the pad unevenly and scoring the rotor surface. By the time the caliper on the Toyota Avalon is identified as the fault, the pads are typically worn asymmetrically and the rotor is damaged. A caliper kit from GeoBrakes addresses every compromised component on your Toyota Avalon together.

What Is Included in the Toyota Avalon Disc Brake Caliper Kit

The kit for your Toyota Avalon includes the disc brake caliper at the correct left or right hand specification for the Avalon, either new OEM-spec or quality remanufactured to the Toyota Avalon piston dimension and hydraulic pressure rating, brake pads in ceramic or semi-metallic formulation matched to the Avalon caliper and rotor specification, caliper hardware with slide pins, pin boots, and anti-rattle clips for correct caliper float on the Toyota Avalon, brake lubricant for correct pin and shim installation on your Avalon, and copper washers or banjo bolt seals for the brake hose connection where required by the Toyota Avalon application.

When a Caliper Kit Is the Correct Service Choice for the Toyota Avalon

A caliper kit is the right call for the Toyota Avalon in three specific situations. After a seized or dragging caliper, because the pads and often the rotor on your Avalon are already compromised. During a high-mileage Avalon overhaul at 150,000 kilometres or more, because caliper piston seals and guide pin boots on the Toyota Avalon are typically at or beyond their service life. After a brake fluid leak at the caliper, because fluid contamination of the Avalon brake pad renders the friction material permanently ineffective on your Toyota Avalon.

New vs. Remanufactured Caliper for the Toyota Avalon

New OEM-specification calipers for the Toyota Avalon are manufactured from fresh materials with no prior service history, the strongest choice for Avalon vehicles in high-corrosion environments. Remanufactured calipers use original Toyota Avalon housings rebuilt with new pistons, seals, and boots, performing identically to new units at a lower price point for most Avalon replacement applications.

Signs the Caliper Kit on Your Toyota Avalon Is Due

• Toyota Avalon pulling to one side during braking, one caliper applying more force than the other
• One brake pad on your Avalon worn significantly more than its pair on the same axle
• Brake drag on the Toyota Avalon with a wheel that runs hot after normal driving
• Soft or sinking Avalon brake pedal caused by a caliper piston seal leak
• Brake fluid visible around the Toyota Avalon caliper piston boot
• Persistent metallic dragging noise from one Avalon corner not explained by worn pads

Why GeoBrakes for the Toyota Avalon Caliper Kit

Calipers for the Toyota Avalon are the most position-specific brake component in the catalogue. Left and right calipers for the Avalon are not interchangeable. Our vehicle selector confirms the correct caliper kit for the Toyota Avalon exact year, axle position, and left or right side before purchase.

Frequently Asked Questions - Toyota Avalon Disc Brake Caliper Kits

Should I replace both calipers on my Toyota Avalon at the same time?

It is strongly recommended. If one caliper on the Toyota Avalon has seized or leaked, the caliper on the opposite side has experienced the same conditions and age on your Avalon. Replacing both restores balanced, even braking and eliminates the risk of the second Avalon caliper failing shortly after the first is replaced.

Do I need to bleed the brakes on my Toyota Avalon after installing a caliper kit?

Yes. Opening the hydraulic circuit on the Toyota Avalon to install the new caliper allows air to enter. After installation, the brake circuit on the Avalon must be bled at the caliper bleeder screw to purge all air and restore a firm, consistent brake pedal on your Toyota Avalon.

What is the difference between a new and remanufactured caliper in the Toyota Avalon kit?

A new caliper for the Toyota Avalon has no prior service history and is the stronger choice for high-corrosion environments. A remanufactured caliper uses an original Avalon housing rebuilt with new pistons, seals, and boots, performing identically to new at a lower price point for most Toyota Avalon applications.
