F man. This is the best video on rear brakes for a Lexus I’ve seen by far. Everyone else is complicated, poor lighting/ video, random steps, missing steps etc. much appreciated
@@harborareatech310 hell yea brother...you actually popped up on my feed...looked at your channel and you been uploading lately, idk why youtube pics and chooses who to display
Thank you for a great video. I always burp the dust cover around the piston after you push the piston back in. It is still has air in it in the video, if you burp it it will fit flush again. I just put the tip of a small screw driver around where it seals to the piston, and the air will release.
Great detailed steps and tips. As far as the electronic brake losing I think you can do it via the car. Not that your way is bad but sometimes the less you uninstall the better.
Thanks !2020-2022, you can disengage the parking brake through the inside or with a scan tool. 2015-2020 to disengage requires the use of a scan tool or doing it his way. The reason i showed this procedure is for the d.i.y. er. Simply because it covers 2015-2022.
Your instruction was great. I followed step by steps and completed the rear brake pads for my 2016 RX350. One of the 5 mm hex bolt on the electronic caliper was tough to removed due to rust. Do you know the size of the hex bolt? I need to get one soon,
You are right there is a way to do that on those certain years but it can trigger a trouble code after and if you don't have a scan tool to clear it then you have to find one somehow. This video is mainly for those with only regular tools. It's the safest way for the d.i.y.er. Plus, it covers the 2015-2019 models that don't have brake test mode without a scan tool.
How many miles were on this vehicle? Just curious as my wifes RX350 has 55k and was curious if I will be able to have the rotors turned or if I will end up having to replace them. Excellent instructional video, thanks for sharing.
Any reason as to why the caliper pins have different length also the shirt one has a black tape on it. I mixed them as I pulled both out without paying attention. Right now I am not sure which goes on top and which one on the bottom. Thanks
We did not realize we needed to put my Lexus ES350 2021 in maintenance mode before replacing the rear brakes on my car. We unplugged the electronic power brake cable following some tips we found online. Put everything back together, bled the brakes and everything works great except we now get an error and no loner have cruise control. Do you have a fix for this besides paying the dealer an arm and a leg lol? Appreciate you
Was it hard to get the parking brake actuator off and did you need to replace the O-ring? Also was the car is park with the parking brake off when you did this? Thanks!
Removing the actuator is not hard. It just required a bit of moving back and forth. It's not required to replace the oring if visually it still looks ok. All it does is prevents dust and dirt from getting in. The vehicle was in park with the parking brake disengaged before performing this job
@@harborareatech310 perfect thank you! I saw a video where the guy remove the sensor from one side and disengaged it but I rather not get a bunch of codes this seems a lot easier thank you for your help !
I need to change the rear brake on my Lexus Rx350 do I need to lift both rear tires because I don't have the necessary tool to lift both tires off the ground can I just take off the electronic components off one at a time?
This isn’t exactly true. On the 2017 models you can’t disengage the rear parking brake from the ignition. This feature wasn’t available until the 2019 or 20 models I believe. I just paid some 🤡 mobile mechanic to do the rear brakes on my’17 and he did it all wrong so he completely destroyed the calipers, causing brake fluid leakage and the pads wore very quickly and unevenly so I have to replace the rotors too. Now I am paying 💰💰💰for it all because of an incompetent mechanic
@@harborareatech310 You said to disengage the rear electric brake with the ignition. Your video title says this tutorial is for 2015-2022. You can’t disengage the rear electric parking brake using the ignition with all those models. On mine you need a scan tool. But I wrote this before I saw your comment responding to someone else saying just that
@staceya.775 if your parking brake is on, it is engaged. To turn it off, you disengage it by simply pushing down on the parking brake button that procedure applies for all models and years with an electric parking brake. That is what i meant by that. If you want to fully retract the electrical actuator from the parking brake mechanisms, you need to follow the procedures in this video unless you have a scan tool. And yes, you are correct about fully retracting the electronic actuator on 2020 and up, but it's not as simple as simply pushing down on the parking brake button. But this video does work for 2015-2022 models.
Super helpful! Easiest way to change rear brake pads. Recommend!
@dmitry6799 thank you

Did we just get blessed with some harbor area tech content?? 😳💪
Yes sir! I had to fluff dawg!

I'm glad it helped. Im pretty sure the thread pitch would be M6x1.0mm head cap style 5mm bolt im not sure about the length though
Great video
Thanks wrenching!
素晴らしいビデオです本当にありがとうございました。Great video 👍
Thank you!
You’re the best one bro
Thank you
On the 2020-2022 you can put it in brake maintenance mode by using the e-brake button, no?
You are right there is a way to do that on those certain years but it can trigger a trouble code after and if you don't have a scan tool to clear it then you have to find one somehow.

Thanx for detailed video
Thanks for watching!
What are your thoughts on akebono pads vs brembo?
Both are good. I believe the oe pads for this vehicle are akebono
Great video thanks
I appreciate that!
Awesome video! Saved me 800$
Heck yeah glad it helped. Enjoyedbyour content content just sibscribed

I'm not sure about the mileage. I always go by the thickness measurement. Thanks fornwatching
Thank you so much!
@@bristowk994 thank you

I would connect a capable scanner to read if there are any stored trouble codes related to your problems in any of the modules.
Was it hard to get the parking brake actuator off and did you need to replace the O-ring? Also was the car is park with the parking brake off when you did this? Thanks!

@tcork5630 when i dont have a scan tool, i do it this way. No problem! Let me know how it goes!
I need to change the rear brake on my Lexus Rx350 do I need to lift both rear tires because I don't have the necessary tool to lift both tires off the ground can I just take off the electronic components off one at a time?
Yes, you can do one at a time. Just dont operate until both are completed
What is the exact size of the bolt to release the rotor from the hub? Does anyone know?
@phillyb9499 I use a 12mm head size bolt with a thread pitch of m8x1.25, probably about 2 inches in length
How about car setting when in park
I dont understand your question.
Puro pinche mountain wrenches!!!
One of my favorite sets of wrenches!
