Brake Problem

[KayCee]

Hi

I have a 55 plate gs300 the other day i was coming up to a junction when a Car transporter youve guessed it a "Walon dummy" turned straight onto road i braked hard i knew ive got that Emergency Brake System and was suprised how quick it pulled up a car behind also braked hard as i heard his tyres scream. The point im making i heard bump at back from axle as I was moving off just a second or two after pressing accelerator as though the rear brakes had been stuck on. Now i had new brakes pads and discs fitted in septeber last at lexus i asked if the calippers was ok they said yes no problem, Is this a normal action as everything works fine braking wise

TIA

Robert

Maybe the pads had wiggled slightly under extreme braking and had settled back into norm position, you can sometimes hear this when going from reverse to forward as the pads move slightly in the guides! Don't quote me on it though!

Mine move slightly when going from forward to reverse on occasion, which does create a small click sometimes.

Have had them off this afternoon to check them over,(and copper grease them to get rid of an annoying squeak ) and they seem fine.

Checked all retaining pins and split pins in place and all good.

Sounds like you will be OK to me

Hi PgLex

I think you may be right ive had no more problems with it since and i have tried to replicate it on several occasions and it as never done it since i think it may av been the pad moving slightly but all is good now

Thank you all for taking time to answer
