Low Dust Pads TSB under Extended waranty?
Can I get the Low Dust Pads TSB under Extended warranty?
I'm getting sick of the excessive brake dust, and my pads are just about due for a change. So I thought might as well do the TSB now..?
My rotors might need replacing as well, so will that be a problem or what?
Thanks.

I would like a definite answer too. When I passed the 4yr/50k warranty the dealer I went to back then wouldn't do the TSIB for me. I haven't tried asking again at the dealer I go to now, but I probably should. I'm still under the CPO warranty, but i'm doubting it will be done free now.
The amount of dusting is insane tho, I can't keep my wheels clean for more than 50 miles of driving......factor in bumper to bumper SoCal traffic and my front wheels pretty much have a custom brake dust finish all the time. If I can't get the TSIB performed under CPO warranty I will probably just replace the pads early. It doesn't look like the previous owner ever did brake pads and i've put on nearly 40k miles since I got the car......I can't wait much longer the dust is driving me crazy. Sad day when your wishing for your brake pads to need replacement

The original TSIB is applicable during the 4yr/50k period, and even then, many of us have been turned down when we brought in a car where our original pads were worn down below the wear limit.
If you've got a great relationship with your dealership and service advisor, there is a very small chance you could get them to cover it as a good-will gesture. But in all likelihood you'll have to pay for the replacement yourself.

i was wondering why i had to clean my front rims almost everyday,lol. i just picked up my lexus second hand, but the dealer put new pads on, and there almost worn out already, i had the car since march. i dont think its the pad i think its something else happening. im going to replace them with some high performace dust free pads and see what happens.

It's absolutely the pads. When your dealer replaced your pads in March, I'm sure they simply replaced them with another set of the stock factory ones. Remember that the TSIB pads did not supersede the ones that came with your car, they are a low-dust option available upon request. As I (and dozens of other members here) can confirm, the TSIB pads very effectively solve the brake dust issue.

The difference in astounding.
Like after a month on the low dust pads there's a lot less dust on the wheels than a day on the old ones.

And now that I think of it, I had a CT200H Loaner once, and I took it on a road trip. Drove 2000 miles and got the amount of brake dust that my IS gives in 2 days..

Stop by your local autoshop (even walmart or target) and pick up a can of this http://www.armorall.com/products/vie...?product_id=33. I don't like armor all products, but this is the ONLY armor all product I've ever used and it works. I have very dusty pads in the front from previous owner and I'm waiting to wear them out to change them to low dust pads
