2008 Lexus LS460 auto brake
Hi guys,
curious, I have my auto brake on (emergency brake). So it’s always on auto. I’m curious, does this auto brake feature have anything to do with the brake actuator going bad sooner/earlier? Does anyone know?
im thinking about disabling it if it pro longs the life of the actuator.
Thanks in advance

I think It’s a different system from the hydraulic system. It uses an electric actuator to engage the parking brake shoes.

It only engages when the car comes to a halt. The brake actuator (do you mean the accumulator?) has nothing to do with the auto-hold function.

It is actually called "actuator", at least, that is what Lexus calls it.

Accumulator is the pump while the actuator is the one who distributes the pressure.

do you know if your brake actuator / accumulator goes bad if you use the auto e brake button to set auto?
