skyrocket1 Posted December 16, 2021 Share Posted December 16, 2021 When im braking from whatever speed... when the car gets to 10mph you can feel (like a ball rolling under the brake) the ABS working double time as if I just slammed on the Brake for an Emergency stop. This happens if its in Regular or Sport mode and sometimes when its in Eco mode. Its pretty consistent. The only thing that was changed recently was the Battery under the hood and that was cuz the car alarm was running for the entire night. I bought a brand new Lexus Battery and its shelf life has only been a month old. Terminals are Clean and has the appropriate grease between the cable and terminal. The check engine light is not on right now Has anyone had this issue before? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RX400h Posted December 16, 2021 Share Posted December 16, 2021 Does the car stop suddenly? Has anyone looked at the brakes, themselves? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skyrocket1 Posted December 16, 2021 Author Share Posted December 16, 2021 I know the rear breaks were replaced last year. Im not sure how many mm the front brakes are. The car does not stop suddenly. It feels like the car takes a few extra seconds to stop when it gets to 10mph Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RX400h Posted December 17, 2021 Share Posted December 17, 2021 That sometimes indicates that either the brake fluid was not properly bled of air or the master cylinder's piston seal has been worn out or damaged by longer than usual linear travel of the piston by pushing the brake pedal to the floor when bleeding the brakes. Hopefully, bleeding the air out of the brake fluid is all that is needed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
