I recently went to ceramic pads and have been getting this weird whirling noise when I come to a hard stop from high speed. Its sounds like your stopping with an old set of summer tires. I called the brake company and they said that the ceramic pads may be to hard for the LS460 and that I should swap back to oem pads. Any issue like this with your pads?? I have an appointment to swap them out in a week or so

I didnt have to replace the sensor but came close. Never got a brake light either. Not sure how many miles were on the pads since I've only had the car a little over a year and its an 07 but they looked original. Can has 52,xxx miles on it now.

Great work!!! Mods done at home are always fun..plus you really get to know your car! I personally hate this site....why you ask? because it has caused me to spend money reviewing all these great threads and realizing all the potential our cars have LMAO! When I first bought it, I was pretty sure I was just going to tint the windows and upgrade to the touring wheels. Now, I have HID fogs, Nike, reverse and interior LEDs, some 20" wheels and Tanabe's on order. Thanks Club Lexus for adding line items to my bank statement haha
Club Lexus is the bidness!!

Man, you arent kidding about the hate part. When I got the LS I said I was going to leave it stock. That lasted about 2 months before I got the Vossens. Then I said that was it. In the last month I've done the sub upgrade, roof and tail spoiler, 3M tints, foglights and headlights. I think I dont have anything else to do so I might be done, but who knows.

I love CL!
I modded my LS430 and brought that over to the 460, it is a must to put my own personal touch on the car. So far i have...
-6000K low beams
-HID fogs (Thx CJITTY)
-Amber Nike lights to match corner lights (Did it 3x & never again)
-LED lights entire interior (Including the trunk)
-LED reverse lights
-Tint 25% windows & 5% strip across windsheild
Next are new socks, shoes, drop & painting brake calipers with Lexus decals.
I would say after all of that I would be done, but I know that won't be true b/c I spend to much time on this forum!
