98 gs300 making buzzing loud buzzing sound**helpppppp
started the car up today and it started making this buzzing,griding type noise from drivers dash area, noticed the vsc,trac, and other lights on the dash, if i pump the brake it goes away for a little while, opened the hood i couldnt tell if it was comming from master cylinder or brake accumulator..is this a know issue with these lexus..any help would be greatly appreciated..

Just in case your unit is bad, I have a 2003 GS300 brake unit for sale 
It's almost $2000 from the dealer, I'm letting this one go for $550

im buying jefftsai brake assembly, figured the noise is coming from somewhere in that area, just replace the whole thing, and get on to better things like mods...

i have yet to see or hear someone besides u report a 2001+ with these symptons.ESPECIALLY since they re-engineered the brake booster in the 2001+ units. last TSB on this i saw was for the 2000. soooo yeah i think i can safely saw it was the 2001+ units (although since im NOT 100% on this, i will admit i could be wrong. i just dont recall anyone but you saying a 2001 + had this issue....preferably the brake pedal vibrating as some people could mistake the servo buzzing to be this) no EN_VY not referring to you...since u did just say something bout this i didn't want u to think i was talking bout u
