Brake pads and rotor thickness   I was told my sons car needed new rotors so
I asked what's the tolerance and what are they don't know was the reply ?It
was the old con job .I have heard of many having rotors skimmed every time
pads are replaced ,it doesn't take much and your up for new rotors $$$$$.
As and old cab owner I ask as if I know little and see who's honest .Just
make sure you used top quality pads,no cheap junk as they work out expensive

I have a real problem with this rotor and pads idea .I brought a new falcon
in 1986 ran it for 880.000klm and I wont even try to convince you about the
front discs .I have seen so many conned into replacing Rotors \discs when
they are new almost .My sons s\h Volvo was said to need new discs\rotors to
pass its road worthy ,so I asked the mechanic  what were the tolerances
,guess what he didn't have a clue ?.So it was a con job .As well always heat
up rotors \discs if the are warped then let them cool slowly so the grain of
the metal is some where near the natural flow .Other wise when they get warm
the will warp in to their natural shape or grain and be warped where they
were machined with the highs being low and the lows being high .If they are
misshapen when machined .If this doesn't make sense don't worry .I proved my
theory over millions of Klms and years of con artists trying me on .Work on
it you will understand .Use the best Pads you can and change your brake
fluid ,even if my own wife says why, the brakes are ok leave them alone?
.But then what would I know ?
