not a loud grunting sound. But its a noticeable click when I first apply the brakes and seems to come from behind the steering wheel (master cylinder?)

I hear the same as well. I feel like it's coming from behind the glove-box though.

That could be coming from the actuator.

The actuator may make noise, doesnt mean it will fail.

Please dont buy from Carvana, Bad company, All of the reviews are one star, What a stupid concept, Buying a car from a vending machine, That should be your first clue.

Congratulations on your purchase. These cars are amazing. I have actually decided to sell my 2013 Lexus LS Fsport with 61k miles. Going to miss the car as its been nothing but great to me but it's time to move on to something different. @SW17LS I have you to blame for this LOL
