OEM Toyota Starter motor
GeneralGiraffe8032
  • Cranking:
  • Sounds:
  • Multiple attempts:
Rating 5.0

It turns out it was the starter motor. Managed to get a second hand one and changed it over, took the told one apart and noticed it had 4x brushes in it and one was completely worn down or potentially could have cracked at some point. Still confuses me to why it would start sometimes and not others. However, this must have been a problem for a while as my car sounds completely different when starting up, really clean!!!!

Pros: car sounds really clean
Vehicle: Toyota Corolla

Akebono Brake pads
Kevbuckeye
  • Braking:
  • Noise:
Rating 5.0

Ended up getting these and installing them over the weekend (Abkebono ASP1210A pads and Raybestos rotors). The pads are super quiet and seem to bite well. Gf reports, "Holy my brakes BRAKE!" haha. Install was easy, the pads fit perfectly and had the correct clips. The rotors seem fine quality seems about right for the price,

Pros: quiet, good bite, easy install
Part number: ASP1210A

OEM Toyota Battery

See alot of "battery replacement cost" blah blah. 1) I have had 4 hybrid work cars (3 Camry and 1 Prius) All driven to 150k or more miles without battery issue. 2) Battery is warrantied by Toyota for 10 yrs unlimited miles 3) If you drive car alot the battery will last along time. If it sits 5 days week and you dont drive alot the battery has a small chance to be bad in 10 yrs. 10 YEARS and that like worst case if sits and not driven combined with being outside in really hot or really cold or both (Northeast). I've never seen it though in 4 cars.

Pros: battery lasts long time
Cons: small chance battery bad
Vehicle: Toyota Camry
Mileage: 241401 km

OEM Toyota Piston rings
dirtee_1
  • Oil use:
Rating 3.0

I’m starting to burn in little oil in my 2.7l 1ar-fe in my 2012 sienna at 272k miles. I guess the low-friction piston rings can get gummed up with extended interval oil changes and start scoring the cylinder walls and cause this issue.

Pros: trouble-free miles
Cons: burning oil
Vehicle: Toyota Sienna
Mileage: 437741 km

OEM Toyota Catalytic converter

The 2AZ-FE 4 cylinder comes to mind. It came with defective rings and pistons that make it prone to burning too much oil. This in turn also makes it have an early failure of the catalytic converter due to the oil clogging it.

Pros: Mobil 1 full synthetic oil
Cons: burning too much oil
Vehicle: Toyota Camry
Mileage: 200000 km
