Disc Brake Rotor Replacement: TRW Edition
> Your Lexus LS 460 or 600h relies on its disc brake rotors for effective braking. Over time, rotors can wear, warp, or crack from heat and friction, especially with city driving or giving it the beans on the open road.
Spotting Trouble: Signs You Need New Rotors
• Brake pedal feels like it's pulsing or vibrating? That's not a good sign.
• Squealing or grinding when you hit the brakes?
• Taking longer to stop than usual?
• Seeing cracks or deep grooves on the rotor surface?
• Brake pads wearing unevenly?
Will it pass WOF?
Worn or dodgy disc brake rotors are a common reason for WOF failures here in NZ. Your rotors need to be within the minimum thickness and free from cracks to pass the test.
DIY or Workshop?
Difficulty: 6/10
Estimated Time: 2-3 hours per axle

🛠️ Bob's "Get It Done Right" Companion Checklist

• Caliper Grease: A wee dab of anti-seize caliper grease on the right spots prevents annoying squeals and keeps things moving smoothly.
• Glove Up: Protect your hands from the mess with some heavy-duty Nitrile Gloves. Brake dust isn't your friend.
• Eyes on the Prize: Safety glasses are a no-brainer, especially when dealing with brake dust and metal fragments.
