Intermittent brake noise

[Chris.S]

Has anyone suffered with intermittent brake noise/squeal whilst driving along ?

Without applying the brakes? That is normally the wear indicator doing their thing to let you know the pads are low. Or a sticking calliper.

Hi Chris

I get slight brake squeal on braking in my IS200t but nothing whilst driving....I only have 7K on mine and really hope the sticky caliper Issue hasn't transgressed through the models.

yes without braking, mostly happend while coasting, cars done less than 9000 miles  and brake pad levels are fine

[ColinBarber]

Maybe a small stone stuck in one of the pads. Any scoring on the discs at all?

[Chris.S]

Nothing, at all, all been checked and noise isnt on all the time

[ColinBarber]

Are you sure it is from the brakes and not the engine bay or suspension?

[Chris.S]

No its definately on the outside the car around the wheel area, ive managed to record it tonight at last

Hi Chris, 

I have the exact same issue. Just noticed on the car's history that the rear disk and break pads were replaced after just 33k and this seems a bit odd as the other owners haven't replaced them this fast, bought the car at 38k and noticed the brake noise, which was light then and though it will go away and left it as it was as it was cold outside so had windows closed with some music on and hoped it will go away,  the weather has changed and got worm and now the car has almost 52k and the noise is driving me crazy. The car is still under warranty and left it today at Lexus together with a video I made to prove them what is wrong with it, as the car didn't want to make any noise when I wanted to make the test with a technician... Obviously!

How did you fix it? 

Thank you!
