e34stx

got sorted..turns out all the caliper sliders were seized, new pads all round and new front discs...and off cause a new air filter.. car is 10 times better now. garage was good and i didn't get any hassle. removed the egr valve and the carbon build up was really bad, in fact the top of the carbon was the perfect shape of the bottom of the egr. the hole was about 5mm so scraped all the crud out and re built it. all good thanks

will do thanks..plus mine has full service history too

thanks i will take it back tuesday...just waiting for all the bullsh+t spiel from the garage

hi everyone, im new to lexus forums and after a little advice. i just bought a 58 plate lexus is220d with 100k miles on the clock. the car came with a fresh mot and service a couple of days ago and i have found several issues. the main issue is the brakes..they are incredibly hard to stop. its like there is no soft braking like the calipers a seized.looking at the rear brake pads they have around 2-3mm left which i thought would fail the mot. when i test drove it i thought that maybe they are not that great becuase it had been sitting for a while. so having the brake issue i thought i would check a few other service things like the air filter. my god it was chock full of crud like itwas the original one from new. so i rang the garage up and they stated i need to bring it to them tuesday. im not happy with the car as it is and want it sorted, but whats the best course of action? any info would be great.
