You are in the Lexus GS Forum. Your Hosts are pat & karens
Last winter I had no problems with my brakes however, this winter my brakes squeal horribly in the cold weather . I had it in a few weeks ago and they said Lexus is aware of the problem but they offered no solution. Has anyone else had this issue? Were they able to solve it? It's embarassing to drive such a beautiful, expensive car and pull up to the stoplight and have people stare beacuse of the squealing.

Replying to: sjab (Nov 25, 2008 9:30 pm) Didn't happen 1st winter. Last winter started happenning. This year it already happened when the cold weather arrived. Talked to service dealer today. Fix is on the way, probably in Jan 09. Hopefully it will fix the brake dust issue too. Hang in there. Squealing brakes don't bother me much as the windshield ticking noise. But it will be taken care next month when I bring the car in. |

I own a 2008 GS AWD and noticed as the weather has gotten colder that my front doors and front window rattle and squeek. This sounds tends to become more pronounced as the drive the car longer periods of time. I also notice that my brakes are beginning to make noise after only 8500 miles. Is there a fix for this and the great amount of brake dust? Lastly has anyone been able to come across mud flaps for the vehicle? Thank you

Replying to: donsfan (Dec 06, 2008 2:38 pm) according to TSB NV005-06 (Upper/Lower Windshield Noise). Mine is due for repair this week for the Lower noise. Windshield noise occurs when the temp is around 40F. The brakes squeal occurs around 30F. Lexus is working on this issue. Hopefully they'll have a fix in Jan 09 from what I heard. |
