    Those circle things in the bottom left with the holes around them, what are they, I have found a couple...
    I'm assuming you mean in the bottom right of the last picture. Those are brake rotors. All cars with disc brakes have those. The brake pads clamp down on that and that is what slows the car. Over time, they get too thin to be machined and have to be replaced.
