I see there is another Redding Yaris owner. What color is your car????

My Yaris had this "Tok" noise at under 20 Km/hr at braking. The noise wasn't continuous. It only happened immediately the brake was applied. Had a technician checked and found the noise was from the metal part between the brake pad and the calliper. With some lubricant, the noise went away. Just a reference for anyone suffering the similar problem...

Usually this tok sound is due to the brake pad hitting the caliper braket. Sometimes the hardware is weak and there is too much space. Bending the hardware usually works or simply replacing it. Had happend to a brake job my shop had done awile ago. We finally figured it out when i noticed the hardware was there on one side but missing on the other. Allowing excess place in the brake pad. So when the vehicle would roll forward and brake you hear a loud tok. Asumming yours is a simular situation putting grease would take up the slack and act as a dampner for the vibration but would eventually could back. It is strange that you do have this problem on a new car.

If i let this continue, will it have any long term negative effects?
What hardware do i need to replace?

thanks!

There really isnt anything bad that will happen just a continuing annoying noise. It is not too hard to do thi syourself. There are several DIYs on this forum that show you how to remove the wheel and brake parts. If you want to try it purchase a brake hardware kit that is the exact name from any local parts house such as kragens autozone, napa auto parts, winchester auto parts, etc. Replace all the hardware and then regrease the components. Put brake lube on the back of the brake pads and on the ears. More than likely this will fix your problem.

If you cant find a brake hardware kit you can try to remove your old hardware and bend it slightly to make it a tigheter fit for the brake pads.
