Please open the brake fluid reservoir before pushing the pistons back.

[@thegravitx]

Life saver man!! Thank you so much for this. Just got a 13 GS350 F sport and the rear rotors look super rusty. I thought it would be super complicated since it has automatic parking brakes. Your video shows otherwise!! Much appreciated!

[@farrukhharoon239]

I followed the instructions! Thanks Jesse !!! Your a star ⭐️

[@spencer82rocks]

What the ? I just woke up and I saw the g35 wheels ?

[@TyKnowsTheTruth]

Clean work 👍🏽

[@rmccaul59]

Nice job good camera work good nice explanations first comment I have ever left

[@farrukhharoon239]

@XJ Jesse if the vehicle has an electronic parking brake like my GS 300 H has, is there a service rear brake option using the an OBD scan tool ? would that release tension on shoes ?

[@Geronimo1994]

That bolt seems longer than 30mm, is it really 30mm?

[@GokuInstinct1]

Man seems like too much work and time. I’ll just get it done at the shop. Time is money for me!

[@leonardoyuki2]

Lexus GS350 2005~2011 Is it the same model as the rotors??

[@XJJesse]

Yeah very similar procedure but probably different part numbers

[@TheWoundedNinja]

Can you just remove the rotors without having to adjust the parking brake shoes? And instead of a bolt, can you just use a rubber mallet?

[@brianwnek957]

Just use a 3lb ledge hammer it comes off who cares if u damage the rotor it’s gonna be replaced anyway I did mine today

[@MsOZ79]

Nice one. Thanks for the video.

[@richardsanchez5983]

Did you have problems with squeaking

[@Myunsolicitedthoughts]

Maybe it’s the brakes but gonna ask anyway. Did that set come with wear indicators on all four pads or did he put them on the wrong side?

[@LarryScruggsJr]

Thanks!

[@Gospeed777]

Did u take off brake ress cap before compressing the pistons?

[@blacktreewall9039]

Thank you bro 🎉

[@XJJesse]

It’s all good brother happy wrenching 🔧

[@blacktreewall9039]

@@XJJesse Could you please post a video on how to replace the rear brake disc backing plate (Lexus gs 300h) or please share a link if you already have posted regarding this, thank you again brother, cheers! 👏🥳

[@danny12904]

Thanks buddy just did my 2018 gs350

[@nabilbrahim5881]

I changed the brake pads only but when putting back the 14mm bolt to hold the brake caliper I didn’t measure or put the blue liquid you used for the vibration I just tied it very hard will the be fine thanks great video

[@XJJesse]

Yes, you should be fine 👍🏽

[@ElliottNez]

Will this tutorial work for a 07?

[@JFKennedy-wy5ez]

Will this work on a RC 350?

[@ahmalkadumas4539]

what is that as big as rotors thin disc looking thing behind al these rotors called? mine is warped and makes scracthing noises when I turn left, is that bad? much appreciated

[@anthonyklemz4404]

Its called a dust shield or heat shield, you can bend it back it should t have any affect on the operation of the brake system

[@johnroach9472]

Work on an 08?

[@Shadows68756]

What brand do you recommend

[@estonianchauvinistk.s.p3864]

Tahaks

[@ericastanton2010]

what about F sport ? would you consider akebono vs bosch quietcast pads? ever just swap out pads and not change rotors?

[@mucialmichaud8020]

If the rotors are not bad, there's no need to change them. It's just a waste of money to me.

[@mdev8846]

No. F-Sport pads brake have different compound ( more soft and sport ). A good option: Pagid Street Plus pad brake.

[@Roecityking]

It’s doesn’t matter. Whatever you budget can afford. I own an fsport and have changed my brakes twice. I’m doing akebono since it has less brake dust.
You can do just brake pads depending how worn the rotors are. One way you can tell is by running your finger down the rotors and if it has a lip at the edge it’s time to change them. I’m changing my rotors and brake pads this time around.
Also, if you own fsport make sure it’s the 356mm size. Oreilly sells them but it’ll run you $140 a piece
