Thank you very much, I really appreciate it!
Welcome back Viktor. You’re the man I watch when learning about Lexus. Your attention to detail is unmatched.
I appreciate that!
I am surfing youtube tonight and you popped in my head. Haven't seen any videos on my feed and then couldn't find your old channel :( Your attention to detail, explanations, and camera work is great..keep going!
Thank you so much for the kind words!
The old channel was deleted by UA-cam, so this will be the new one!
You are really good explaining your work. I hope you reload the rest of your videos which I used as reference when doing my DYI. Right now I'm needing the 4th gen RX rear breaks video👏
Thank you! All the videos got deleted when my old account was shut down, but I will be remaking them again.
Great explanation! Replaced front rotors and pads on my 2008 rx and no more shaking when braking at high speeds! Thanks a ton!
Great job!
Welcome back, Viktor! I hope you are able to edit for compliance or redo many of your 16-22 RX videos. They were excellent, as are all your videos.
Thank you! I will have to redo most of the videos as they were deleted and unfortunately I did not have back ups.
what happened? why did it get deleted?
@@tas4092 supposed “trademark violation”
Great to see you back, Viktor! I read through the comments here....I hope it works out that you can edit and re-upload your old videos. You are the best....thank you!
Working on it, thank you for the support!
Viktor, so happy that you are back online! Love all of your work!
Thank you! Cheers!
Wow, I didn't know that your old channel was deleted. It's just disappear from my list.
Definitely will subscribe to this one.
Keep it up, Viktor!
Thank you!
I’m assuming lexus or whatever company reached out to UA-cam and told them you were affiliated with them and had your channel deleted from the blue image in your work shirt? Anyhow, I’m glad you didn’t give up. Your channels and videos were being searched. Just glad it happened earlier than later. Kinda like a problem when working on a car. Your videos are a wonder for a lot of people!
Thank you for the support! I agree, better now, than a few years from now, after I've made another 300 videos.
Great Job Viktor ! Glad You Are Back Again. I Hope You Are Well. 👍
Thank you Stephen!
Hi Victor, your spark plug replacements video for rx350 was excellent. Too bad it was deleted. Hopefully, you will recreate it at some point. Assuming you didn’t have it saved.
Thank you, it will be coming back within a month!
Welcome back Viktor!
Thank you!
Glad to see you still making kickass videos. I used a YT video downloader to copy all the relevant 2010-2015 rx videos you made. If you need copies maybe I can put them on google drive or something. Not really sure how that works but happy to try given how much time and effort you spent on them and how much I've learned.
Thank you so much!
I actually found a gentleman last week who happened to download every one of my videos and he shared them all with me. Now I am in the process of getting them edited to remove any trademarks out of them. I will be re-uploading them in the near future?
@Viktor_G_Automotive Amazing content. Huge bummer around the UA-cam trademark violation rules BS. I have used your videos before and they were a massive help. Glad to see you still making content!
Thank you! I will be remaking all the videos making sure to avoid any issues in the future. It will take time, but I’ll get there eventually.
Good detailed vid. I like to put some anti-seize on the hub surface after cleaning. It makes removal of the rotor much easier next time around.
Good tip Robert 👍
@@Viktor_G_Automotive FWIW, your 2010-2015 RX350 maintenance videos are a great resource I use when maintaining my 2010 RX350. 👍 I wish you had some MB W166 ML350 content on your channel. Concepts are the same but always helps with visuals.
@@robertdieder4178 thank you for the positive feedback!
Hi Viktor, I panicked when went to my link for your RX350 brake video and saw that your channel was shut down! You have helped me do most of my own maintenance on my 2017 RX 350 and I didn't want to have to sort thru backyard mechanic videos to figure out how to continue working on it.. So glad that you have a new channel and that you'll be re-doing your videos. I know it's a pain, but we REALLY appreciate the work you put into these videos and how you show the part and torque values needed! Speaking of which, do these torque values also apply to a 2017 RX 350?
Thank you so much for your support and kind words!
I’d have to double check if the torque specs are the same, but they most likely are.
The 2016-2022 RX front brake job video should be uploaded in the next week or two, stay tuned!
WELCOME BACK, you're the man Viktor! Do you have detailed video on 2019+ ES 350 brake job?
Thanks! I don't have a video for the ES, but it will be pretty much identical to the RX.
I hope u bring back the 2015 Lexus RX videos back 😅
Lots of RX videos coming in the future! Thanks for watching!
Awesome video, Viktor. I really appreciate your attention to detail and how you point out issues and how to avoid them. Somehow, I find your accent comforting and providing the confidence that I'm being led by a true expert!
I appreciate that!
very nice. thank you
You are welcome!
Hi Dear,Viktor thanks for your all great videos.Viktor show me how can Replacement instructions Lewer Ball joints Lexus Rx 350 2010 thanks a lot 🙏🌹🙏👏👏
Will do when I get a chance, thanks!
Thank you
You're welcome!
Yup looks good!
Thanks!
What happened to all your other videos? I loved your channel.
Thank you! This will be the new channel, the old one got shut down.
Great to see you back Viktor! Why not replace the hardware clips rather than clean them? Are they not included with the new replacement pads? This is my next project on my 2010 RX 350
Thanks! Unfortunately, the caliper bracket hardware does not come with new pads, you have to buy it separately.
Wha happen did they shut u down? I got a 2015 Rx n ur videos help a lot especially when Lexus auto work is expensive. You help a lot 🙏
Thank you! Yes, I got shut down for a “trademark violation” for wearing a manufacturer branded shirt in my videos.
All the videos got erased, I will be making new ones on this channel, making sure to not use the ‘L’ word 😂
Hey Viktor, thanks for the excellent videos. Would it be possible to upload the videos for later RX models? I remember you had those but I seem not to be able to find them :(. Thanks.
I will upload the newer generation RX tutorials once I get a chance to edit them for compliance. Stay tuned!
Hi, love your videos and so glad you are back. I was wondering if you also have a video of how to bleed rx450h brakes? I have the annoying "barking" noise when braking at slow speeds. I bled the brakes with dot3 fluid 6 months ago and all ok after that. But now the sound is back so maybe you have some helpful tips on this as expert?
I do not have a video of that, but I can possibly make one someday in the future.
@@Viktor_G_Automotive , Looking forward to that ;). And you ever encountered this "brake barking" as they call it? Mine is doing it for over a year now and every owner tells me to change the ABS unit. But until now i don't have any errors on the dash and my local toyota dealer told me it's normal and it's just a matter of air in the brake lines. When i changed the brake fluid a few months ago (pressure bleeder, ignition on and brake pedal depressed), it was better for 4-5 months. But now it seems to return. Replacing the abs unit would be the last preferable scenario, especially because changing the fluid helped for a while, which should mean it's not a matter of something being broke inside i assume.
@@MrTvsh2 that barking noise from the actuator is very common on Toyota and Lexus hybrids. Bleeding often fixes it temporarily, but usually to fix it permanently the ABS actuator has to be replaced.
With regards to the slider pins with the ' o ring' : does it matter whether they are on the top or bottom slider. I know you're going to say that's why you do one at a time but what do you do if the person before you didn't follow those instructions and MAYBE put them back wrong.I would think they should be the same. ie both on top or both on bottom
On some models the slider pins are different lengths. I can’t recall if this year RX is one of them. If they are the same length, it’s probably not a big deal if you mix them up, but if the are different length, you will run into problems, I’ve seen it happen before.
Please make on video on removing and replacing the brake dust covers front and rear. Thanks in advance! BTW Are they attached or welded to the knuckles?
Hi, the dust covers are not welded on, they are bolted on. To remove the rear ones, you have to take out the rear hub/bearing assemblies and the rear e-brake components. The bearing can possibly be reused if excessive force was not required to remove it. For the front ones, the hub has to be pressed off the bearing to replace the dust shield, the bearing must be replaced as it gets destroyed in the process. I will have a video of the front coming soon, not sure when I will get a chance to do the rear, but we'll see. Thanks!
Great work Viktor...I'm replacing the calipers now on my 2010 RX350, because the piston boots are ripped...would you recommend the replacement?...also, watching this video, I've seen the bleeder loosened to allow brake fluid to escape when compressing the pistons, so as not to force fluid backwards through the system...does sending the fluid back into the reservoir cause any harm to the anti-lock braking system? It seems like a good idea to loosen the bleeder, allow some fluid to escape, then refill the reservoir, eventually sort of flushing some fluid out...what are your thoughts on this? Thanks and great job as always sir.
Thanks! The repair manual does not tell you to loosen the bleed screw, but you can definitely do it if you want, not a bad idea. Pushing the fluid back doesn’t damage anything, provided the fluid is replaced fairly regularly and does not have a bunch of wear particles in it. If the boot is ripped, water can get into the caliper and potentially cause the piston to seize, so it is a good idea to replace it. In practice however, I’ve seen people decline caliper replacement for a torn boot, and they often last for many more years without seizing.
Thanks for the vid! What's the mininum thickness of the rotors for them to be re-used?
Front brake disc thickness
Standard .................... 28.0 mm (1.102 in.)
Minimum .................... 25.0 mm (0.983 in.)
Fantastic video! I have a question: I have a 2020 RX and something very odd happened, I put my car in accessory mode, and then turned off the parking brake, and then put the car in reverse to back it out. Normally, after I hit the brakes a few times they get stiff and it is a bit harder to stop the car, but when I would hit the brakes even just a bit, even just a tap, the car would give me like some sort of power assist, and I heard a winding noise - when I took my foot off the brakes, the car rolled with no noise, and then when I tap the breaks again (ever so lightly) the car instantly gives me assistance somehow, and it slams on the brakes for me. I found this very odd so I recorded, and will post a video with the noise upon request if you have any ideas what this could have been. To make it even crazier, after I started the engine, and then went back in to accessory with the epb off and car in reverse, it acted completely normal (no assistance, no winding noise) the pedal was stiff and the car was “harder” to stop! Any input you have is greatly appreciated. I think the winding noise was coming from front passenger side of engine bay.

Interesting 🤔
I don’t know exactly what was going on, but was wondering why are you backing the vehicle up in accessory mode with engine off instead of starting it?
Lol! Because the exhaust fumes really bother me!
Did you see the video?
Good evening Victor...I'm doing rear brakes and rotors on my 2018 lx 570. Does the asking brake need to be in service mode?
No service mode on those LX models, just make sure the parking brake is off.
@Viktor_G_Automotive thank you so much for your quick response! I'm subscribed to your channel and definitely looking forward to more informative videos
