Just did my nephew's 2006 is250 same problem on right side no need to remove the caliper. Hammer caliper back a little and spray wd40 and let it work itself in. Sand off rust and apply lubricant. No need to open brake lines.
TY so much!!
I repaired both rear calipers by myself.
Many thanks to you 😅😅
I think that I would just replace the caliper with a decent looking used one complete with replacement caliper carrier. It probably functions OK but looks terrible still and they look so nice when they are in nice condition. You have done a functional decent repair though and its very well filmed. Thanks for taking the time to do it
That's what I did. After about 10 years, the caliper was so rusted that it was easier to replace the caliper and mounting bracket when changing rotors and pads.
Had same issue with my 2011 Lexus is250 awd. Poor design. Bottom should be same as top. Like on hondas floating caliper design. Much better.
Before removing the stuck caliper, watch what happens when you have someone else apply the brake pedal hard or constant pushing. The inner pad does 98% of the work and the caliper flex 30% away from its center. I don't know about the Federal, but Toyota car owners will be in trouble when the stationary pin snaps off at its threads. Companies should be stopped producing this caliper by a recall and go back to 2 removable pins fasteners. Camry is the best test subject, it is less beefy than Lexus.
I do know that the 2nd gen lexus is350 and is250 have different front brakes since the is350 have a bigger brake at the front but does the fronts also have caliper pins too or just the rears?
Even a Lexus needs a torch.. the fire-spanner. The action at 3:42 however, repeated 1 million times, looses any bolt.
If Lexus-designers had pressed in stainless-steel bush, and used appropriate thick grease, and seal to keep that grease in place, the problem would not occur. Does that really make the car far to expensive?
Are there any "good" cars left? I do not think so.
Conclusion: Lexus is simply " a car ", like others. It does not distinguish it self technically from others.
(Alto-front-calipers have exactly the same problem.)
I got the caliper bracket stuck, any ideas how to unscrew it?
Almost perfect job. 😏👍👋👋👋👌
Gotta turn the rotor
This is exactly what happens on the Toyota Prius, a seized sliding pin and heat is the only option, Clean then grease profusely!
Look at that corrosion, definitely a cars used where the use salt to disperse snow.
As my Dad would ALWAYS do!!!!!! Spray down with penetrating oil !!!!!
Y los discos se dejan como están? Las pastillas que le montes se harán una desgracia también.
How do you prevent the brake line from leaking after you remove the caliper? Thanks.
Use a pair of vise grip pliers with rubber hose around the tips and clamp down on it or use the actual hose clamp pliers
@@livindaunderground We'll do it. Thanks.
@Toyota Tundra04 no problema sharing ideas/info openly is what keeps car culture thriving 🙌🏾
Same problem, ended up getting new calipers.
Same
Tried all described. No go so far. Will let soak overnight sliding guide pin stuck in carrier
The guide pin for the caliper in my car broke inside the caliper. So what’s the name of the part to buy with caliper that has the pin on it. The part you took off and then worked to separate from caliper. I hope I explained it correctly. Thanks in advance.
I think its called brake caliper carrier slider. Guide pins are bolted to it
@@GK_Works Thank You. Will look for that.
Good luck removing that busted bolt 🔩
Since,when do people spray paint rotors
Simply Buy replacement calipers
Then service them once a year
what size is the rotor removal bolt?
M8 1.25 bolt
Mine slid up and down but wouldn’t come out. Like you could jiggle it back and forth but it wouldn’t slide out. Might have to do this i see. A lot of work for something so simple. Shit system.
I did one like this at a shop I work at….i just sold it new calipers honestly stupid design/engineering
What was the year of that particular Lexus?
2007
2011 same issue poor engineering
Forgot to bleed the brake system before installing the wheel !
We actually did bleed it just didn't show it in the video
that is the problem of is 250.
Yep rear brakes on IS250 are known for this.
Forest time.
So I don't need to remove the caliper to change the brakes on the 250?
You only need to remove caliper If your brake caliper needs to be rebuild or you have stuck guide pins, piston.
You didn’t bleed the brake after removed brake fluid hole ?
We did, but we didn't show it in this video
Buy new calipers, good video tho.
Yeah they look pretty bad, but still fully functional!
Im scared of changing my rear brakes now
Did u ever change them?
@@tommy2timez no not yet. When I do I probably bring it to the mech
Just buy a new caliper. Too much work 💪
Absolutely correct !
Waaaaaay to much fukn around !
Sds chisel or air hammer makes this a complete non problem. Rebuild the pistons and getting them back in also sds drill makes it child's play. This car NEEDS caliper bebuild kits (ebay) slider dust boots, piston seals, grease, slider pin rubber o ring, DOT4 flush, They are very cheap to do.
Toyota and Lexus rear brakes bracket is bad design all of them.hahahaha 😅😂🤣
Typical issue on toyotas
Faulty engineering design.
Why don't clean and paint no profesional
Just buy new calipers this thing is damaged ..
Lousy engineering
