Clicking Sounds
I just noticed that when I lightly depress the brake pedal, a little clicking sound is made down below. It sounds like it might be coming from the brake pedal itself. It's only when I depress the pedal slightly braking. The braking lights work fine. Is it normal? Thanks

could be the brake light switch clicking on and off

I was driving ours yesterday and did not hear a clicking but my hearing is poor. You might try putting your head under the dash and operating the brake pedal with your hand and see if you can isolate it.

Ok... at the time when I first responded to this post, I didn't have a clicking noise. Today while driving, there was a clicking noise when I lightly tap in the brake pedal.
With a few minutue if investigating, it's a pin/lever causing a small click from the pin rocking/slopping around the bore of the lever......

I know exactly what you talk about and I went to dealership and turns out that is very normal noise.

I have had the same issue. I have taken my NX 200t (my first Lexus) in for service to look into it, and I was told that it is normal for all Lexus vehicles. The way the tech described it, it has something to do with the way the brake mechanics shifting/settling into position. To me this sounds like design flaw. My wife's non-Lexus car does not click when I tap on the brakes. The sounds happens almost everytime when I back out of my garage and tap lightly on the brake pedal for the first time.

I was a former bmw tech at a dealer and I can tell u after I looked at mine, it is normal. It's just that the pin have too much slop inside the bore causing the noise. I fixed it myself with just some simple grease. If the tech at your local Lexus spent an extra 5 min on your car, he/she too could of fixed it with some grease and kept you as a customer happy. Being a former tech at a dealership, I can tell you guys not all techs care and do a good job no matter how much "factory training" they got.
