what pads and rotors are you using? I have swapped brakes and rotors 5 times
2 oem 2 piece rotors and pads
1 1 piece rotors as suggested by Lexus
2 aftermarket using Rock auto
and bad brake noise ! BAD! Train stopping
with stocks wheels and 3 piece wheels!
So bad I am thinking of getting rid of the car

I ordered those same R1 rotors and pads, but when I took the wheels off to do the brake job I realized that my rotors were mint, so I just slapped the R1 pads in and left the stock rotors on. No squeal whatsoever.

What in my message makes you think I did the work myself? What makes you assume that I didnt have the dealership do the work and a mechanic?

On the forums its some do and some dont.
Conatcted lexus and NO resolution, they say it is a wear and tear part, howver on a 50k plus car at 6k miles brakes wearing out is unheard of to me! Keep in mind I am slammed on rubber band tires,22x9 on a 225/30 and 22x10 on a 245/30 so driving fast and heavy braking is not what I do. however , they have been calling up the yin yang to offer me deals on a new lexus. this is my 3 rd lexus and never had an issue till my 15 GS Fsport perhaps its time to move on to something else.Another brand

oem rotor ceramic pads
oem rotor semi mettalic pads and so on
hawk pads
oem pads
bendix
wagner
oem 2 puce rotors
oem 1 piece rotors
cebtric rotors
ebc rotors
same result
oem wheels
3 piece wheels
actually started faster on the oem 19” wheels
all after a few miles made noise.
My friend is350 F sport did the same.
I have a feeling the calipers are at fault in the Fsports. I drove a LS500 f sport a few days and same sound but only a bit quieter.
was on here to see if a fix was found. Thanks for the input.
