BiggieLex400 Posted October 19, 2005 Posted October 19, 2005 I recently had my breaks done over on the front pair. Whenever I turn the car on and apply the break in reverse or when I come to a slow stop I can hear a clanging/banging in the front right side of the car. Not sure if it's the breaks, suspension, etc. Does anyone have any ideas? It it a sensor of some sort? It's strange because I've certainly heard it on other Lexus's in the parking lot. Thanks,

nc211 Posted October 25, 2005 Posted October 25, 2005 Agreed, 100%. No shims = free play in the pads between caliper seats. Got the same problem in my LS on the fronts. Hit "r", first time on brakes = BANG Hit "d", first time on brakes = BANG. Pads are shifting back and forth. Turbo is right. I recently had my breaks done over on the front pair.

BiggieLex400 Posted October 26, 2005 Author Posted October 26, 2005 THanks a million everyone. I brought it in and my mechanic thought I was nuts ... said everything he checked was good. I'll change em with the pads next round.
Silverback Posted November 15, 2005 Posted November 15, 2005 I experience a clunking noise from the right front corner on my 01 300. I thought it was a shock tower or brakes, but everything checks out. It's like the lose spring clunking on the tower of a old domestic Hope someone can help Cheers
