same with mine. I asked for the TSIB to be performed and when the invoice was printed for me to sign, it stated that rotors were on there to.

No. It's TSIB - Technical Service Information Bulletin.

Besides getting something for free, what is the big deal about changing out the rotors if there was nothing wrong with them when the old pads were on? The TSIB was done on my car at around 12k miles and Lexus told me the rotors were fine, so they weren't changed.

Brake engineers would tell you new pads with used rotors is better than new pads and new rotors. I didn't ask for them, didn't get them, and am very happy they didn't change my rotors.

Default Brake Squeal

To address the constant squealing from the front brakes (after having two sets replaced), Lexus came out with updated pads, that have so far taken care of the issue (8/6/07).

Parts installed with #'s

Pads (04007-35153)
Rotors (43512-30310)

Replaced the pads and turned the rotors since there is only 4k on the clock. Also performed the first oil change. Told them to take there time since they gave us a new RX330 for a day as a free loaner.

Question In DC area?

Has anyone had any luck with any of the DC area dealers (Lindsay, Pohanka, Rockville or Silver Spring) replacing or resurfacing the rotors for free while performing the TSIB brake dust work?

They cut my rotors and I told them it was not needed and they cut life out of the rotors. I told them it was not acceptable and they replaced them new.
