  • Hint: Use a descriptive title for your new message
    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my car" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your G70, please post in the G70 section - and so on... This message can be closed by clicking the X in the top right corner.

Wife and I just took a road trip to Atlanta from NE Florida. I noticed while driving some shaking during braking on I75. This is my wife's vehicle and my Lexus and show truck both have brake upgrades. (Brembo and Willwood)

I am wondering if ANYONE has upgraded their calipers and/or Rotors with something other than stock? R1 Concepts says they have drilled and slotted rotors for the GV70. I am not having any luck finding anything else on the ol interweb.

So I figured I would ask here to see if anyone has successfully done this and how was/is the experience.

Hello: I I have a '24 GV70 and was having issues with brakes: very touchy and sharp braking even with light touch and then random squeeking when backing up. I was told that there is a known issue with this and the pads and rotors were replaced under warranty. This problem started unter 5K mileage. Pads were 'under spec...excessively glazed over and cracked'. Just FYI in the event this could be the problem.

I replaced the pads about 10 months ago with ceramic ones to get rid of brake dust. I had my wheels powder coated black and the calipers powder coated red. I think that with all the rain we have gotten in Florida and who knows what happened, the rotors developed this shudder. I rarely drive it and have found that replacing factory parts with other companies that specialize in things like this has worked wonders!

Hopefully someone has already done this upgrade and can give me some insight.
