Brake Squeal noise fix?
I have a 2013 Lexus GS F Sport I bought used. I had a 2009 GS450H before
I have horrible brake squeal noise from cold start or even when very warmed up. I took it to the dealer and they said its normal for Fsport and all bigger cars like E series mercedes and BMWs Well I have a BMW M3 and have had it for years and never had a squeal cold or not so that doesn't seem to hold water. My question is what is the way to fix this as its very embarrassing to take clients out. I have done some searching and want to know what is truly the best solution that is still safe? What I have seen in search Toyota pad replacements Akebono ceramic pads EBC yellow / green Brake disc quiet lube/solution are the lexus shims the answer I would really appreciate the help thanks so much everyone. |
I had same problem on my car and I brought it to the dealer.
They checked my brake pad and told me that the brake pads still have lots of life left on them. They installed anti-squeak shim kit(04945-30340)and the noise went away. |
Thank you for the quick response! Do you mind me asking how much they charged you for the whole job?

DONT start your mechanical career on a GSF brakes, (yes they are easy but it could turn out bad )start on a old car and learn cheers.

It’s very easy to do brakes on our cars here’s a link to the 2IS write up but brakes are the same for these cars

Soooo. Lets assume I am someone who has never changed his own oil. I also have zero tools... How easy is this... is there a youtube video?

U already have all the tools u need in ur trunk. Jack and lug nut wrench to remove the wheel.
Just need a pair of big pliers to decompress the brake hydraulics and remove the pads, that's it. :D And get some brake cleaner and spray all over the brake parts while ur at it too. I made a video on this by the way. ;) |
