I guess nobody had this problem but thanks anyway the dealer fixed it. The problem was before I brought it cpo some one had put aftermarket brakes on it and forgot the anti rattling springs. They replaced brakes and so everything is good now.

Default Piston rattling

I have had my 2007 LS460 now for you guessed it 16 years now and for 15 of those year I have endured this horrendous rattle that seems to go away when travelling over 60 MPH. 2 dealerships said that they couldn't hear the noise...BS Now I see the issue. I am now going to beat them down like dogs.

Thank you
