Great video, thanks bro. Can't believe how easy this was. I only replaced the pads and it took me about 30-45 minutes at the most. A while back I paid around $1500 for new rotors and pads at the dealership. Thanks again🤘🤘
This will be my final scheduled video of my previous recorded videos before Emma was born. I will be back next week with all new videos. Can't wait to get back out there in the world lol.
why did you not use copper grease on the back of the pads? they must really squeak and scream? whats with puting extra strain on the brake line by letting it just hang there? not clear on the video, but did you fold back the split pin? hope so.....
Great video. Weird enough I’ve changed my pads recently, and after a week or so (300miles later) front right side started giving me noises rattles and claps…
where did you purchase the rotor? did you use LEXUS OEM 2 part rotor or aftermarket 2 piece? what is brand brake pads? would you ever just swap out brake pads and leave same rotor to cut on cost?
I know this video is 3 years ago but I have one question. How does prying that brake pad to push in the brake piston not wrap the rotors? You can clearly see that the rotor is flexing as he prying that brake pad in.
The rotor moves nothing but the caliper is holding it on at this point tire and lugs hold the rotor tight. It's not actually flexing, but rather sliding back and forth
because he is replacing the rotors so it doesn't matter if the rotor gets warped or scratched. only do that if you are planning to replace your rotors.
Beautiful job Bro. Nice GS fsport. Fsport pads and rotors only last 30000 kms, max 40000. Cost a fair bit if replaced at Lexie workshop. Had mine done a week ago, pads and 2 front rotors about $520AUD plus Lexus labour $221AUD. Still cheaper than most of German cars 😊
my car battery went dead while bleeding my brakes. After i finished the brake flush, i jumped the engine but then immediately the check engine light turned on. I went to autozone and code ABS malfunction and traction off showed up on dash. not knowing what to do, i removed the battery, check engine light turned off for now but for how long?
Did you have to get a new shim kit? My brakes are making noise and I don't have no shim pads. Dealer said I need to get some shim jit6for anti squik. Thank you
Nice video bud. Question, did you not use the OEM shims off the OEM pads on top of the ones on the back if the pads? Also noticed no antisqueal stuff was used on the back of the pads. Do you get any squeal? I did a change on my 2015 RC350 and the brakes squeal alot. I did use the OEM shims though. Thanks again.
My daughter has a 2015 Lexus gs350 f sport. I do all the maintenance and repairs on her car. Labor is free, but I charge her for parts. Still waiting on all the money I spent
Best car channel on TH-cam right now! You do your own work unlike TJ, Evan, David and Mike. And it's not ghetto work like Haggard Garage, PMM and Motion Auto TV.
i had got a brand new 2015 toyota avalon xle in april of 2015.. thinking about a Lexus Gs 350 fSport.. how is the maintenance on the GS 350 compared to my avalon???? reliable ?
Well they are both essentially Toyota's. So the GS will be just as reliable. Problem is you also pay the Lexus mark ups on parts if you are going through dealer only parts and service.
Nice write up Do Boy. I've got a 2015 GS 350 F Sport RWD. Where in the heck did you get the 1 pc rotors ? The RWD F S ports usually come with the 2 pc Rotors. How are those Centric Pads working out as well as the 1 pc rotors. Tell me where you got thme please !! Not about to shell out $230.00 each for 2 pc rotors. And yes the replacement rotors do look like a little smaller than the originals.
No anti-screech lube on the back of those pads or on the pad to caliper metal contact points? and who takes a rotor off after installing new pads. Only a backyard mechanic allows a caliper to dangle from and put strain on a rubber brake. Terrible example of a mechanic.

what pads did you use? debating on AKEBONO proact 1118. or bosch quietcast
This will be my final scheduled video of my previous recorded videos before Emma was born. I will be back next week with all new videos. Can't wait to get back out there in the world lol.
@0:39 I thought you somehow, someway, were going to compress the piston by hand. I thought it was gonna be the most badass thing ive ever seen
Hello Anthony, where can I purchase the front rotors for my 2014 GS 350 FSport without going to the dealership ?
why did you not use copper grease on the back of the pads? they must really squeak and scream?
whats with puting extra strain on the brake line by letting it just hang there?
not clear on the video, but did you fold back the split pin? hope so.....
exactly. copper anti seize is better as it doesn't break down like regular. also use brake cleaner on rotors to remove grease film.
Great video.
Weird enough I’ve changed my pads recently, and after a week or so (300miles later) front right side started giving me noises rattles and claps…
Had this same problem. Make sure you're using your old OEM shims. If you tossed them, order from dealer for under $20
half way through the video... "why am I watching changing brakes on a lexus at four in the morning? "
Hahaha. Well thanks for watching either way 👍
where did you purchase the rotor? did you use LEXUS OEM 2 part rotor or aftermarket 2 piece? what is brand brake pads? would you ever just swap out brake pads and leave same rotor to cut on cost?
Great job Anthony. I love my GS350
Great work. Gotta keep the newest addition to the family safe now :)
Did you leave the shims off or did the new pads come with the shims already attached?
Can you please show us how to change the rear brakes of F-sport Gs 350 2015? Thank you!
I know this video is 3 years ago but I have one question. How does prying that brake pad to push in the brake piston not wrap the rotors? You can clearly see that the rotor is flexing as he prying that brake pad in.

😆. If he's flexing that rotor by hand then he's clearly The Hulk in disguise.
because he is replacing the rotors so it doesn't matter if the rotor gets warped or scratched. only do that if you are planning to replace your rotors.
Great video man.!

Where did you get pads and rotors for an sport for $500?
my car battery went dead while bleeding my brakes. After i finished the brake flush, i jumped the engine but then immediately the check engine light turned on. I went to autozone and code ABS malfunction and traction off showed up on dash. not knowing what to do, i removed the battery, check engine light turned off for now but for how long?
Awesome work Do Boy!
What a brake job those rotors sure look like they need turned

Marc gangsta puffin that brake dust lol
Is the car a rwd or awd? What size screw did you use to remove the caliper?
Nice brake job, but you left that brake caliper dangling by its lines!?? 😳
have the link for the BREMO rotors and pads?
What rotors brand you use for fsport? Lexus want $300 a piece..WTH
Nice video bud. Question, did you not use the OEM shims off the OEM pads on top of the ones on the back if the pads? Also noticed no antisqueal stuff was used on the back of the pads. Do you get any squeal? I did a change on my 2015 RC350 and the brakes squeal alot. I did use the OEM shims though. Thanks again.
Did the oem shims take away the squeal ?? Having same issues
I tried both and they still squeal. Apparently, the brake pads have to be completely broken in and make sure the hardware has brake lubricant
Damn this video has 14k+ views. Good job guys.
from where can i can order the rotors for the same Lexus GS-F 2013 ?
Good work Anthony! :)
My daughter has a 2015 Lexus gs350 f sport. I do all the maintenance and repairs on her car. Labor is free, but I charge her for parts. Still waiting on all the money I spent
Stoptech rotors? Muy bueno
Keep up the good work man!
Awesome DIY Guys!
Great how to Anthony!
Awesome work man!
Why didn’t you turn the rotor?
Amazing video man!

Thanks Viet!
Why would you replace the 2 piece rotter with a single piece? I guess $$$
Hey man, nice channel! How hard are Lexus cars to work on?
Pretty easy
Yeah They are actually pretty easy to work on.
Do Boy's Garage considering getting my wife a Lexus, lexus, or LR4. I like the fact that maintenance may be cheaper on the lexus
i had got a brand new 2015 toyota avalon xle in april of 2015.. thinking about a Lexus Gs 350 fSport.. how is the maintenance on the GS 350 compared to my avalon???? reliable ?

ohh i see gas mileage may be a little different since more power.. i don't like newer GS 350 only 2015 an under new design looks horrible
Awesome DIY guys.
so these rotors don't have a screw to hold the rotors to the hub ( I know the wheel also holds it in place)....
I hate mechanics hanging the caliper like it's no tomorrow

I use akebono pads
Damn those are beefy.
what do you know about AKEBONO ACT1118 brake pads?
what rotors did you get ??they look smaller?? ...are the also 2 piece?? ...I can't find and replacements for mine
Sorry but Akebono pads are OEM to all toyota products - i would not use Centric ... You are letting the flashy box hypnotize you :(
did the brakes squeal like crazy on your f sport too? mine is so damn annoying...btw good video bro.
They did squeal a bit. Thanks!
you need to grease the backing plates.
you need to grease the backing plates.
i was told brembo brakes are prone to squealing
Anybody know the songs used?
What rotors did you replace the 2piece ones with?
that poor brake line 😨
Yess!!! I would NEVER have my caliper hanging like that!!
Lol
you gotta find a better shop... this guy is a hack....
You definitely can change brakes yourself...
Everything was great except for letting the caliper hang from the brake line.
i hope you guys cleaned that new rotor. lol.
Its that easy?! Wth lol
No shims and hangs that big caliber from the brake hose. Wtf😮
Wrong rotors bro. Look at the heat shield with old rotors and new... about 1 in off
You missed the shims.
Damn, i cringed when i saw the caliper hanging by the hose, smfh
You are NOT the only one.
Calm down internet techs. It wasn't even hanging long enough to affect anything.
Bro got scammed
Dude, F sport suck!!!!! GSF all day.😂
