Several questions I posted on another (but quieter) thread about this vehicle:
Question 1: what is it with front calipers in this series? This vehicle had them changed (at dealer) in 2015, then again in 2017, and again in 2019 (this time with left front axle too). In both 2017 and 2019 they were reported as seized. With rotors and pads of course.
Question 2: how to judge the service record. This is a 1-owner vehicle, but they had two phases of where they were getting service. The first 65k miles, the only dealer visits were for recalls or similar. No records anywhere for oil changes or anything else during this time. More recently in phase 2 (65k to present), they switched to Valvoline Instant Oil Change service, and that pops up on Carfax every 5k like clockwork. And they also started going to dealer for all other work (like all those calipers, and a radiator replacement at 108k). Clearly not a DIY owner, as they went to dealer for turn signal bulb changes and gas cap CELs. Normally I'd write off a vehicle with that kind of gap in records ...... but the regularity in oil changes once they went to Valvoline might suggest owner was similarly conscientious during phase 1 but just went to a different non-reporting shop (where they would have been getting brakes and tires etc. that also had to have been done but aren't showing up anywhere.) Vehicle condition appearance from photos suggests a responsible owner (they even installed ventshades
).
If I proceed further I will of course go with a PPI. Dealer has offered to drop it at the nearby Toyota dealer for me for a PPI, in fact.
