AT200 braking query, Also...jacking points... Options

[_john_]

Alright guys...



I'm assuming this is a gen7 (seeing as the picture is stolen from 'new celica.org')

I'm wondering if these are exactly the same on the gen 6? Does it have front and rear central jacking points?

The reason I'm asking this is I'm getting a strange rubbing and creaking sound from the passenger side which is easily audible when setting off from a stand still and if changing into second at low revs, looks like the pads are actually touching the disc??

Here's a photo taken while the wheel is still on:



Circled in red...the brake disc and pad are actually touching, there's still ability to spin the wheel freely (I jacked it up real quick yesterday to see what sound came back when spinning the wheel) but it does make a rubbing sound, area circled in blue...is that scoring or just signs of a used disc?.

Still need confirmation on where I can jack/axle stand the car properly though! If anyone has any photo's I'd be dead grateful

it is supposed to have a bit of resistance, if it spinns without any than your brakes need to be adjusted. atleast that is what i was told by all of the instructors at school. looks like you need new rotors and pads.. that scorring looks not so bad, i have seen much worse out on the roads.
