Lexus Rx350 Disc Brake Caliper Kit in US

When a caliper on the Lexus Rx350 seizes, leaks, or drags, the damage does not stop at the caliper. A partially seized caliper on your Rx350 keeps the brake pad in continuous contact with the rotor, wearing the pad unevenly and scoring the rotor surface. By the time the caliper on the Lexus Rx350 is identified as the fault, the pads are typically worn asymmetrically and the rotor is damaged. A caliper kit from GeoBrakes addresses every compromised component on your Lexus Rx350 together.

What Is Included in the Lexus Rx350 Disc Brake Caliper Kit

The kit for your Lexus Rx350 includes the disc brake caliper at the correct left or right hand specification for the Rx350, either new OEM-spec or quality remanufactured to the Lexus Rx350 piston dimension and hydraulic pressure rating, brake pads in ceramic or semi-metallic formulation matched to the Rx350 caliper and rotor specification, caliper hardware with slide pins, pin boots, and anti-rattle clips for correct caliper float on the Lexus Rx350, brake lubricant for correct pin and shim installation on your Rx350, and copper washers or banjo bolt seals for the brake hose connection where required by the Lexus Rx350 application.

When a Caliper Kit Is the Correct Service Choice for the Lexus Rx350

A caliper kit is the right call for the Lexus Rx350 in three specific situations. After a seized or dragging caliper, because the pads and often the rotor on your Rx350 are already compromised. During a high-mileage Rx350 overhaul at 150,000 kilometres or more, because caliper piston seals and guide pin boots on the Lexus Rx350 are typically at or beyond their service life. After a brake fluid leak at the caliper, because fluid contamination of the Rx350 brake pad renders the friction material permanently ineffective on your Lexus Rx350.

New vs. Remanufactured Caliper for the Lexus Rx350

New OEM-specification calipers for the Lexus Rx350 are manufactured from fresh materials with no prior service history, the strongest choice for Rx350 vehicles in high-corrosion environments. Remanufactured calipers use original Lexus Rx350 housings rebuilt with new pistons, seals, and boots, performing identically to new units at a lower price point for most Rx350 replacement applications.

Signs the Caliper Kit on Your Lexus Rx350 Is Due

• Lexus Rx350 pulling to one side during braking, one caliper applying more force than the other
• One brake pad on your Rx350 worn significantly more than its pair on the same axle
• Brake drag on the Lexus Rx350 with a wheel that runs hot after normal driving
• Soft or sinking Rx350 brake pedal caused by a caliper piston seal leak
• Brake fluid visible around the Lexus Rx350 caliper piston boot
• Persistent metallic dragging noise from one Rx350 corner not explained by worn pads

Frequently Asked Questions - Lexus Rx350 Disc Brake Caliper Kits

Should I replace both calipers on my Lexus Rx350 at the same time?

It is strongly recommended. If one caliper on the Lexus Rx350 has seized or leaked, the caliper on the opposite side has experienced the same conditions and age on your Rx350. Replacing both restores balanced, even braking and eliminates the risk of the second Rx350 caliper failing shortly after the first is replaced.

Do I need to bleed the brakes on my Lexus Rx350 after installing a caliper kit?

Yes. Opening the hydraulic circuit on the Lexus Rx350 to install the new caliper allows air to enter. After installation, the brake circuit on the Rx350 must be bled at the caliper bleeder screw to purge all air and restore a firm, consistent brake pedal on your Lexus Rx350.

What is the difference between a new and remanufactured caliper in the Lexus Rx350 kit?

A new caliper for the Lexus Rx350 has no prior service history and is the stronger choice for high-corrosion environments. A remanufactured caliper uses an original Rx350 housing rebuilt with new pistons, seals, and boots, performing identically to new at a lower price point for most Lexus Rx350 applications.
