Now I've only had my car a few months, and I get a little pulsation when I hit the brakes. I know that's a sign of warped rotors but d@mn if I didn't just have the car inspected a few months ago and it passed. Also the car passed and the tired tread is low on all 4 tires.

Due to the lug nuts being too tight, Lexus told me the rotors warped. They turned all four on the car and set the lug nut torque to 76 FT Lbs. Haven't had any brake noise since. The wheels are factory.

R1derfull, I see on your post you have a Injen intake. How do you like it? I am considering purchasing one, but not sure if there are any pitfalls, if you know what I mean. Is everything positive or are there some negatives. Thanks Oly

Here is the thread where I posted about the Intake.

I'm satisfied with it.

I have the exact same problem. Small pulsation, I thought it might be just the way it was supposed to be since its so minor. It passed inspection too.

You guys probably aren't experienceing warped rotors. More than likely experiencing uneven pad deposits. Torquing down the lugs too tight might be one but uneven pad deposits may also happen. http://www.stoptech.com/whitepapers/...otors_myth.htm

Godd info thanks a bunch. Your probly right since the pads were just replaced before I bought it. I guess it's also possible that when they replaced the pads they did not turn the rotors.

Usually you don't have to turn the rotors unless there is something wrong with them, like bad pad deposition or what have you.
