Guys thanks for the feedback
I am going to a different dealership now, I just wanted to express my displeasure of this dealership.
Joe Z- thank you for that updated form
Guys everytime I went in I took a copy of the TSIB papers. Everytime I took it they acted like they had never seen it before and this last time i took it the service guy told me only master technicians get a hold of "this stuff"

I've gotten my stealership to change them TWICE!
First time I complained about the dust so they changed them with no hassel.
Second time (about 6 months after) I complained about the dust again and they made a squeak sound (started from day one) so they changed them with no problem again. Still having issues with dust though. I give up

no, the 250 qualifies too. my sister has an '07 and got it done earlier this year at the dealership no questions asked.
Joe Z, is there a more recent TSIB for the '09s? I'm getting crazy brake dust as well and my car's literally like 2 and a half weeks old. if I call lexus headquarters and complain could they force the dealership's hand to swap out my pads to those alternative low dust pads you mentioned?

Joe Z, is there a more recent TSIB for the '09s? I'm getting major brake dust as well. if I call lexus headquarters and complain could they force the dealership's hand to swap out my pads to those alternative low dust pads you mentioned?

Example: 2008 IS350 arrived early Sept 07'..
The updated TSIB for the 08' IS350 was released late Sept 08'..
Over a year of waiting...

I had mine done at Keyes. No questions asked and car came back without scratches, dents, or dings.
