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?
OEM. Though they do produce quite a bit of dust.
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.
I went to the Toyota dealership to get my free oil change, brake pads were nearly at EOL. Went back to the same Toyota dealership for my next free oil change, same brake pads suddenly had 4mm.
This happened to my Gen2. I gave it to some guy to change pads and these lights came out after. I think he didn't do it properly and air entered into the line. I then took it to a local Toyota dealership where they fixed it. (I don't recall what they did exactly, maybe flush and replaced the break fluid). I was fearing it was the actuator, which as other have posted, is very expensive on this Prius. I had to drive very slow and careful, because I had no power in the brakes, so they were hard and slow. No ABS. No regen either.
2016 Toyota Avalon Hybrid with 170k miles.
-Still original brakes
-Only done maintenance on it, no issues.
immediately replaced rotors/pads and replaced yellowed headlights. All the parts were dirt cheap on Rock Auto.
