On thre GS F sport a tsb went out on pads after numerous people complained and they changed pads and installed at no cost. It was a different issue, squeaky brakes.
We GS F Sport owners have lots of brake dust on our front wheels after a day of driving. There has been no TSB for excessive brake dust, only for squeaky brakes (which mine doesn't have). I wash my front wheels every other day. I've just gotten used to it. Even the various brake dust repellents don't seem to work.
Lexus lists a disclaimer about the high friction brake pads and summer performance tires to cover their backs.
On my 2IS, I switched to ceramic pads and the dust issue was completely eliminated.
Out of curiosity, what year is your 2IS? Just purchased a 2012 and notice the brake dust build up.. When the time is right, id like to consider the pads you purchased. Do you find braking quality to be sacrificed or different?
There is no TSB. Lexus states it's normal for F-sport models and already mentioned in spec. I already changed the pads to non-sport. Definitely a lot less dust.
