Brakes - more problems
Brakes - more problems

steviewevie You need to try and find a garage you can trust to tell you the truth - i.e. who won't just tell you "you need 4 new discs" no matter what the run-out test produces. So that's the usual issue with garages, finding a decent one.Yep I'll have to try a few local places to see who can do it.....yep that's the problem, most will just say you need new discs which is what I'd like to avoid.
Lexusboy Since brakes have had the asbestos taken out they really dont seem to be as good.I trust Lexus Woodford, they're usually pretty straight up and honest with what needs doing.........I actually had my current brakes fitted by WIM and they are mintex pads with ADL blueprint (I think) discs.
Some member recommend Mintex or EBC Brake pads and not your normal Lexus suppied brakes.
If you have second Lexus near you why not ask them to check your car.
I am planning to get it back to WIM at some point when I have time, but they don't have a way to test the runout in any case so should probably do that first.

The workshop manuals on the runout readings (and other checks on the discs) are here for the front discs and here for the rears.

If that is the case then I'll be hoping for free replacements seeing as they're not even a year old........will let you all know how I get on.

Marsdendean Im glad you have these problems!!!
Thanks :Sulk:
Lol, seriously though it's interesting that you have a similar problem, wish it was as simple as warped discs as that's why I replaced them in the first place but the problem persisted.

Marsdendean now that makes me not change my disks.
Its quite intresting how your having similar "problems" both being automatic. Keep us posted on how your getting on, im going to try to blast the brake dust out and see if that helps. My problem seams to have come from heavy driving when i first bought the car
Also, do you have a custom screen, since yours has voice activation??
Will do mate
Nope I have the factory add on (which not many people know about) which adds voice activation to cars with the DVD satnav. Essentially it's already built in to the system, all you need is the button and the microphone to make it work.
I did a thread about it over the other side........ updated now to OJC LINK
It's a relatively simple and inexpensive but seriously cool mod that I have found incredibly useful (mainly as you can't do much while moving, but by voice you can)
