    Thanks..

    The ABS Actuator, is making that krrr noise every few seconds even during driving.

    Please check this YT video -> July 18, 2024 - YouTube

    Once car is locked, it settles down. No codes or lights yet. Replace it only when the ABS light is on with codes? Also found the same unit in the trunk. Seems they replaced it, may be installed a used part and that is also failing. 44500-47141 seems to be the new part number. Wonder if they fixed the issues with the original one in this version.

    Also which cable most of the people are using for techstream? Did anyone used Foxwell Toyota Pack. Looks like i need it to bleed the brake actuator once replaced. Some kind of adjustment also needs to be done with software? I remember reading it, but lost the details

    you can replace it anytime between now and when you get a warning. you might be wasting money now, if decide to sell sometime. no telling how long it will last

    I will replace it when the warning light turns on and planning to use new OEM from the dealer. Used parts for mechanical items are not good idea. Its like ~$1.2k.

    Trying to figure out which one to buy. Toyota pack for Foxwell or cable+Techstream. To bleed and align abs

    Autel AP200? I have seen several people note that it has a brake bleed procedure, but just looked and couldn't find a post where somebody successfully used it. Still, I vaguely recall that some people had successfully made it all the way through the brake protocol with that.

    mini-VCI with Techstream I don't think I recall anybody making it all the way through the brake procedure. Even if they did, you have no way of knowing if the "mini-VCI" they used is the same as the one you received.
