Nice reference video. I found the bolt size required to pop the rotor off the hub to be M8 1.25 pitch. I used two bolts with even pressure to break the rotors free. The M8 fit both the old and new rotor..

Thanks for the reply brother, and I appreciate you sharing the size and thread pitch of the bolt. That's an excellent idea (to show how to use the bolt if you need to) in a future video. Appreciate the comment :)

Like 17! Always good to hear a pro speaking. I used to drive Lexus overseas ( affordable ) and locally for a while. It’s just too expensive to maintain Lexus in Spore. Each servicing will cost me around Can $1900 just for routine servicing. I gave up after a while

Oh wow!!!! $1900 for routine servicing, that is crazy!!!! Yes that would be very expensive, so I don't blame you. Her in Canada it is much cheaper to repair vehicles. Thanks for the great comment :)

Stop squeal goes on the outside of the pads, what does that touch?
@GarageKing
@GarageKing 3 жыл бұрын
Hey brother thanks for the comment. When you put the stop squeal on the outside of the pads it touches the brake caliper piston on the inboard side, and the brake caliper housing on the outer pad. It prevents the pads from vibrating and causing noise as they shift in the caliber bracket. Good question !!!!

I have a 2010 lexus is250 and I have 19 inch rims on it I noticed that I have to press on the breaks a bit harder or from further away ,,,, question do you suggest new rotors? Or just breaks??? If I get new rotors how would I know if I need new caliper’s??? Advice pls loved your video Mr.Canada keep them coming!!!!!
@GarageKing
@GarageKing 3 жыл бұрын
Thanks for the compliment !!! You got a good car. The IS250 gets a bad rap, but its a great car and I like it. This job was a tough one due to the brake caliper pins seizing, but I got them out, and the car is still great today :) Most of the time the brake calipers don't fail on these cars. When you push the piston in use a ratcheting tool (like the one I used, or I think I should have used in the vid) which forces the piston in straight. If the piston is really tight (you will know as its really really rare for both calipers to fail at the same time) so do one side then the other and they should feel the same. For the pins in the bracket, you can see how much I had to fight with them. That is the most common reason for replacing a caliper, its not because the caliper piston failed, its because the pins are stuck in the bracket, and you have to buy the whole thing if you break the pins, or can't get them out. So take your and clean them up good. If you don't they will get stuck real quick and you will be doing the job again in no time. For the rotors, ok.... If you have to push on the brakes harder it usually means the surface of the rotor is not as smooth as it should be, so the pads don't grip it enough, and you have to push harder to get the same braking. Now some people say you can get them machined, and I use to do that, but it was not good as the rotors got thinner (because they were machined) and then they would warp easier (like a pan in an oven). The cost of rotors has come down a lot over the years so I just replace them if there is any vibration or noise when I am braking, or if it takes too much pedal effort to stop. Most likely for your job you should replace the pads and rotors, and your calipers should be fine, as long as you can get the pins out and give them a good cleaning and use proper brake lube on the pins. That's what I do for probably 95% off all the brake jobs I do. Sorry for the long reply, but I wanted to be thorough. Hope I have helped you out :) If you have any other questions just let me know :)

Congrats on the IS250, they sometimes get a bad rap, but I really like these cars, ok.. so If you have to push harder on your brake pedal most likely the rotor surface is no good. You can save some money if you take the rotors off yourself and get them turned, but to be honest its faster, and better to just get new ones. No one really turns them anymore because then they get to thin, they warp like a pan in a hot oven when they get hot. Plus the cost of new ones has come down over the years. Replacing calipers is actually pretty rare, the pistons almost never fail, and the only reason to really replace them is if you can't get the pins out, or if they break. You saw in this video, they were pretty tough to get out, but I took my time and got them out, and the IS250 is still going strong :) If you can get the pins out and clean them, and the pistons push back in fairly easy (use a ratcheting tool like I use as it pushed straight and you can tell if the piston binds) then all you have to do is replace the pads and rotors and you should be good to go my friend :) I would say on about 95% of my brake jobs its always pads and rotors.

Great instructional KZbin , have just regreased my rear brakes slide pins on my 2012 IS250 however when trying to to do the same on front calipers I can't loosen the 14mm bolts which screw into slide pins. They are well rusted, have brushed with wire brush and sprayed with penetrating oil however still stuck. Any tips on how to get them out would be greatly appreciated.
@GarageKing
@GarageKing 2 жыл бұрын
Thanks for the great comment, as you could see in the video the pins were really stuck in the calipers !!!! I know this may sound silly, but make sure you are turning the bolts the right way to loosen them. I have come across situations where I learned that people turned the bolt the wrong way due to the orientation of the caliper. Look right at the bolt, get your head in there in the wheel wheel and, counterclockwise to loosen. Snap On ratchets are great as they have "on" and "off" switch on the ratchet head. If you are certain you are turning the right way then get a longer ratchet. I have never seen one break coming out (there could be a first I guess). Usually once you get the bolts out you will find its just the head of the bolt that is rusted, the threads are 90% if the time just fine. I find getting out the pins and cleaning is where the work it. I would not use heat as you will damage the rubber boots. Worst case scenario they snap and you can just order new pins and bolts. Once they snap (hopefully they don't) then you can get the caliper off, and get to the bigger two bolts that hold the bracket to the spindle (if you are changing the rotor) If you have any other questions just let me know !!!!

Oh I just thought of one thing, are the bolt heads turning? I forgot if these pins have shoulders that prevent the pins from turning when you loosen the bolts. If the pins are turning you need a small thin wrench to hold the pin, and then put your wrench on the bolt head

@@GarageKing Thanks for the quick response, definately turning the correct direction. there is no movement at all. Feel if I give any more pressure on the wrench, bolt head will snap or head will be rounded. Will persevere however will order replacement pins and bolts before tackling again. Brake pads and rotors are still ok, was just doing routine maintenance on slide pins, done a couple of times before without any issue. Thanks again for taking the time to respond with sound advice.

@@surebet146 Thanks for the comment, ya if you have done the pins before then you should know what you are doing for sure. Strange they seized in there. Normally I never have a issue with pin bolts from any manufacturer, they all usually come out ok. If you do have an impact use it. Many times something that is stuck will come loose with an impact.

Hey, I’m currently hours into trying to change my brake pads myself. After watching many videos, I’ve noticed whomever had this car before put the brake pads in without the slider pins and it’s been hell trying to put the inner pad in there. Any tips?
@GarageKing
@GarageKing 6 ай бұрын
I think you must have a different style than the Lexus as the pins in the Lexus don't affect the pas installation. The pads are installed in the bracket with no pin. I think you might have this style kzbin.info/www/bejne/h5_GdGlsrbeeq80 where the pins hold the pads in place. Go to 3:00min mark and you can see the two pins holding the pads in. That style is very popular on Brembo 4 plus piston calipers. If you have removed the pins, but can't get the pads out you may have to remove the caliper and bleed the that brake caliper when you reassemble it

Hi if I just need to replace the rotors do I just skip straight to removing the bracket?
@GarageKing
@GarageKing 3 жыл бұрын
Yes you can, but you will need to spread the pads just a bit, as the new rotor will be slightly thicker. If you want to tackle this trick be careful not to let the caliper drop as the whole unit will be heavy and can damage the brake line. I did exactly that on a BMW recently. Its just like the Lexus, see this vid kzbin.info/www/bejne/e5-UgX-EfMpkrtU and you can see what I did. Thanks for the comment and good luck with the job !!!

@@XanhDT89 Hey There, there was no damage on the BMW LOL :) In that vid I show how to take off the caliper as one piece, and was just explaining how it is easy to damage things if you are not careful. Personally the best way to do it is to remove the caliper from the bracket, and then remove the bracket. The reason is that way you can service the caliper pins so they don't get seized. You can see in the video the pins on this one were very stiff (due to lack of servicing) Good thing is its not a hard job, so one you should be able to tackle. Let me know if you have any other questions, and good luck with the job !!!

@@GarageKing Good to hear! Sweet yeah seems easy. The thing is it shakes like crazy when I brake although the rotors have a shiny surface to them. The brake pads though seem like they aren’t getting used at all? The thickness seems to have stayed the same since they were put on.
@GarageKing
@GarageKing 3 жыл бұрын
@@XanhDT89 Yup, the rotors are warped. Kind of like a cookie pan in the oven, it warps when they get too hot. The thickness is still the same, but its warped. The correct term is run out. So what happens is when you push on your brakes, the caliper squeezes the pads against the rotors. When the rotor is warped when you brake it pushes the inner brake pad in and out slightly, this is magnified through the brake pedal and thats where the pulsation comes from. Its actually quite common, and can happen at any time.
