ok it has finally struck me. the car groans when it rolls backwards. now is there a fix from toyota on that? and does anyone know who makes the stock pad? funny thing is that i have been driving the car slowly and softly for the last 2 weeks and its only happened then. been driving it hard and spirited before that and nothing ;)

when does everyone's brake squeal thing when reversing started? i've only just done 13,000k

thanks in advance!

:angry: My groaned upon reversing for the first month and it has since disappeared. :lol:

It's been 4 months now and I haven't heard another sound since.. :rolleyes: .. so not sure what's going on.. but I am happy it's gone .. or it could be I don't reverse that often.

I'll try it tonight and post another message tomorrow to update, if mine does make a noise. :unsure:

I have that squeal but don't care much anymore because i am sick of my dealer here and am currently too busy to bother. I am driving my car harder by the day and i found that the Stivo responds very well to hard driving.

The only time I had the squeel was when reversing down my folks driveway which has about a 20 deg gradiant and only on cold or wet days, I just assumed it was low friction from cold brakes!!!! I happens on both their cars also (Subaru Liberty and Outback) so I thought nothing of it. Haven't had a problem over here in Wollongong and I reverse slowly into my carpark every time I get home from a drive.

it only happened to me once or twice since i got the car but been doing it lots in the last few days. and i wasn't even on the brakes! my garage front has a very slight slope. sometimes i let it roll back a little as the clutch engages, and in the last 2 days it has made that groaning sound. so i dunno if its coz of me being too nice to it or something... :P

I reverse into my garage every day, the driveway slops about 25 - 30 degrees downwards. My brakes use to do the groan then they stopped, now its just a constant squeel like the pads are worn. now i know for a fact that they arent worn out but its making this constant squeel. If anyone doesnt know what could cause it I may have to get my mechanic to check it out

has anyone changed their rims and found that it stopped squealing soon after?

yep. as soon as i changed rims...squeals stopped.

but...does happen every now and then...only of steep gradients...and when it's really cold.

other than that..nothing.

seems to really happen with the stock rims...and when it's cold...in reverse.

the new celica's also have the same problem.

      KUN26R Hilux Single Cab - Tray to Tub

      Hi everyone, I own a 2011 Toyota Hilux KUN26R. It currently has a tray. I am looking for a single cab tub (image for reference below). I have a couple of questions for everyone: - Were KUN26R's ever released in Australia with a single cab tub as an option? I have looked high and low over all sorts of marketplaces within Australia and honestly cannot seem to find one. I don't believe I have ever seen one on the streets of Aus either. - Does anyone have experience making this conversion? Where can I find a tub? I have found some examples of the style side single cab KUN26R's in the UK, EU, Africa and Thailand but in all instances it has been part of a whole car sale and the sellers have not been willing to part out. Even so, if there is the chance that I can buy this tub in Australia it would be much better as it would save the hassle of organising freight. Thanks everyone in advance. I'm jealous of overseas countries who seem to have gotten this model in abundance.

      1993 Corolla Seca CSI limited

      1993 CSI limited Corolla Seca hatchback 80k kms. We are the second owner and have complete service and maintenance records of the car from new. Previously owned from new by older lady who rarely drove the car in the final years. Very neat and tidy vehicle. Unfortunately another vehicle has reversed into the car and their towball caused some damage to radiator, air con system and fan. The right person could easily fix the vehicle. We are just not in a financial position to do this. We cannot bear to send the car to salvage so posting here in hope that another Toyota enthusiast is interested incontinuing the life of the car. These cars are much loved and we have loved our “Beryl” during her time with us. Please feel free to ask questions. Open to offers above $3k

      Rav4 smart key keyless entry

      I got my new rav4 2024 hybrid gx yesterday. The fob let's me lock and unlock using the button but doesn't do this automatically for proximity. Once in the car the push start ignition turns on without holding the key up to it and the multimedia system tells me that the smartkey system is activated. I've read the manual over and over but can't find a fix for this specific thing. Has anyone else had this?

      Buying 3rd hand 2010 Aurion Sportvio for $9000

      Hey I'm looking to buy my first car and was looking at this 2010 Aurion Sportvio with 165,000km for around $9000and relatively new tires. Just wondering if this is a good price and if I should be worried about such high km's with expensive maintenance. Only looking to have this car for 5 ish years, so will it last that?
