You guys know how many brake pad wear sensor we have in our LS460? Is it two? Front driver and passenger rear?

Front and back on the Paasenger side only.

I did the brakes 6 months ago but I thought there was a sensor on each wheel.

So, how many sensors did you install???

Guys....I answered it already. TWO SENSORS. One back, one front... passenger side.

If you insist, I'll provide pics from the brake calipers I painted.

Very few vehicles in existence utilize four sensors. My 7 series BMW also had two.

Ha! (Was asking Dryrunner - he said he replaced his brakes so presumably he knew how many sensors he installed)

I had ordered two sets of pads. Just checked the set I didn't open. 4 sensors, one per wheel. My Cayenne has 4 sensors. Think about it, each wheel could wear unevenly, how would you know? I have the LS sport model if it makes a difference. Which is doesn't

*Sigh*. It may not matter if it's a Sport or not, but it DOES matter that the OP has an 08 as do I. Starting in late 2011, they added a sensor to each wheel.

I say again.....OUR LS' (07,08,09 and 10) have ONE sensor on each of the passenger side wheels for a total of two.

Also, my wifes BMW E53 and my former E65 had only two sensors. I service and DIY my own brakes, so I know how many I have. LOL.

on edit....here is LexusPartsNow website with the parts as I described. Bottom of page it says RH.

You'll note that Sport uses a different part number but still only two on RH side.

My apologies, I glossed right over the "2007" part.

No worries my friend...no worries.
