2007 LEXUS GS 350 PART 1 HOW TO REPLACE FRONT BRAKE PAD AND ROTOR

[@MrIndestructiblekid]

You know your work! Nice stuff!!! Love the 07 Gs 350 content

[@s0m3th1n6s177y]

curious as to why you're compressing one at a time, using the bleeder valve - is this to stop the master cylinder from over filling?

[@AL-ug5gg]

Explained very well. Thanks for the step-by-step.👍🏽

[@TheV8Pumpkin]

First off thanks for the video! Very straightforward and diy friendly! I only need to change Pads, do I still need to bleed the brakes?

[@joh331]

Well done Roy, this is fantastic and a lot of help. A big mahalo from down here in Australia. Cheers brother.

Glad I could help and thanks for watching 🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽

[@ostrich_gelper]

Thank you for your help I followed this guide and had no issues thank you sir

[@mmsizzlak]

I'm friggin amazed by how damn BIG those pliers were....I have never seen pliers that huge before lol...I seriously want a pair now... I'd seriously use it to compress the brakes...wow... I'm not kidding, I walked away from this video and that's what left a mark lol... I'm showing my car buddies and ofc their wives all went "why would you need pliers THAT big?" "You never know." Was my answer lol

[@RoysGarage808]

Sometimes you just need large pliers, when you need them, you NEED them! Thanks for watching 🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽

[@mmsizzlak]

@@RoysGarage808 where'd you buy them specifically? Could I literally find a pair in an AutoZone or even Walmart? I CANNOT wait to have to describe it to someone who doesn't know what they are lol .... "Yes... They're like GINORMOUS.... Like more of a big ass oil filter wrench kinda look more than needle nose... You get it?" Or show them this video ..

[@RoysGarage808]

@@mmsizzlak I got mines through Snap On tool shop, I’m not sure if you could find it at AutoZone but I hope you can find a pair! 🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽

[@geemoney8158]

Aloha and mahalo for the great video. I have a 2008 Lexus GS 350 and you make it seem easy.

[@RoysGarage808]

Thanks for watching 🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽

[@ronthemogul]

Don’t you let air in the system by opening the bleeder?

[@RoysGarage808]

Great question and the answer is no, this tool/method is actually the best way to get trapped air out of your system by yourself. It uses the “laws of gravity” as air is lighter and will easily go upwards. There’s different methods to do this depending on what the job called for. If you’re worried about air in general going in through the opened bleeder screw, the weight and pressure of the fluid coming out keeps the air from getting sucked in so make sure there is enough fluid in your master. Another question/concern I get a lot of about this method is the concern that it’ll push sediment up to your ABS and master, this tool just doesn’t have enough pressure for that. Hope that answers your question and thanks for watching 🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽

[@ronthemogul]

@@RoysGarage808 thanks for responding. you have a link to the tool?

[@aldringuzman664]

Will this be the same steps for a 2006 Lexus gs 300?

[@RoysGarage808]

Hard to say without having the car in front of me. Sorry and thanks for watching 🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽

[@huiren9676]

hello, i am upgrading the brakes on my 2008is250awd, i bought the gs350 awd front caliper, so can the 2008 gs350awd brake discs be installed? I know that the wheel hub of gs and is is the same.

[@RoysGarage808]

I don't know if it would fit🤙

[@Prosper_Pun]

Thx Roy. My steering wheel been shaking while driving on freeway. I balance the tires and alignment already but still shakes. Some one recommended me to change out rotor next what do you think causing the shaking? Used 2002 gs430 liked sub

[@RoysGarage808]

When does the shaking happen? Just while driving on the freeway or while braking? Let me know and thanks for watching 🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽

[@Prosper_Pun]

@@RoysGarage808 yup, strictly shakes on freeway.

[@RoysGarage808]

@@Prosper_Pun I would say it’s a balancing issue, I know you got it balanced already but I would highly recommend you taking it back and tell them to re-balance it again. Second most common would be something wrong with the tire itself. Hope that helps and thanks for your patience 🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽

[@mohammedal-farsi1951]

If tried balancing the wheels and its still shaking, its probably a bent rim. I have had the same problem.

[@JesusCruz-dk7wy]

Great video, I’m very happy I found it. I just purchased a 07 GS 350 with new front brakes, but oftentimes breaks squeak really bad, what could be the problem(or solution )? Also, the dashboard squeaks or rattles. Any idea how to solve this issue? Thank you very much!

[@RoysGarage808]

When you buy pads & rotors, always use premium parts. If the pads squeak, return it for another set. They all have warranty. They should not squeek.

[@billybob2844]

the Dash has some bolts in it that loosen over time and it is a big job. Try squeezing the dash just above the the speedometer, where the dash and the cluster come together if that stops it , then get some felt and push it in there to tighten it up.

[@saif2684]

What kind of brake fluid did you used?

[@RoysGarage808]

Dot3 brake fluid I believe from Autozone. Thanks for watching 🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽

[@johngalan3754]

You make good videos you should have more subs

[@alb12345672]

The AWD GS 350 looks like a truck setup in the front! The rear brakes on those are very problematic too.

Thanks for watching 🤙🤙🤙

[@camacho212594]

Very good videos!!

[@RoysGarage808]

Thanks for watching!

[@MarcinM-oy8xm]

Are you serious? Not cleaning hub etc? jut put new rotors without cleaning hub surface?

[@jonpool9030]

It's a chanel lock pliers

[@ididntdrinkthekool-aid4973]

Great video but a thing to note you should put that ceramic grease on the tops and bottoms of the brake pads that needs it more than the back plate.

[@RoysGarage808]

I put the geese directly on the shims so you can just slide the pads in with having to grease it! Thanks for watching 🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽
