Lexus RX350 Rear Brakes | Instructional How-To on Replacing the Rear Brake Pads and Rotors

Having trouble replacing the rear pads on a later model Lexus RX350 or other Toyota model? if it's equipped with an electronic parking brake then you're likely having problems getting the piston to retract into the bore of the caliper. That's because you need to retract the parking brake mechanism. In this video I'll walk you through the process of retracting this without actually unbolting the unit from the caliper. Additionally we'll remove the caliper mounting bracket in order to get the rotors off. Thankfully there was still enough material on these rotors to get them turned, or machined/resurfaced at my local O'Reilly Auto Parts. That along with a new set of brake pads and this RX350 is back on the road with nice smooth brakes! #lexusrx350 #electronicparkingbrake #rearbrake #brakejob #diymachanic #diygarage #garagrproject #familymechanic #carculture #carparts #lacouturelounge #diy
