do rotors have to be resurfaced?
436140
As a general rule of thumb, most rotors need to be resurfaced every other time that your brake pads are replaced. However, in some vehicles, the thin rotors are used to keep weight down, such as in most luxury sports cars. These cars need to have their rotors replaced every time the brake pads are replaced.

Labor at a shop to replace rotors and pads is approximately $150 to $200 per axle. Brake rotor and pad repair generally comes out to around $250 to $500 per axle when visiting a professional shop. Calipers are the most difficult and expensive aspect of the braking system to replace.

Drilled Only – Drilled brake rotors are easy to recognize because they have a series of holes drilled into the metal. Slotted Only – Slotted rotors have slots, which look like lines in the metal. Drilled & Slotted – Drilled and slotted brake rotors combine the drill marking and slot marking.

A: No, rotors do not come in pairs only pads or shoes.

CV Joint and/or Wheel Bearings are probably damaged if you are hearing clicking. Easy to replace if you have the skills/tools/time. It is always easier to replace the half shaft (usually a refurb with a rebuild CV Joint and new boot) then it is to replace the CV joint components. If you do most of your own work.

Yes they are covered just take it to your local dealer. I had the front springs replaced under 3rd year warrenty. Mines were covered in the 3rd year warranty. Strut bearings too.

Yes, although you might not be able to see it with the naked eye. When pressure is released, the brake pads “pull back” slightly so that they do not actually touch the rotors unless pressure is applied.

It's not necessary, but it's usually recommended to replace them in pairs, for example, both front struts or both rear shocks. This is because a new shock absorber will absorb road bumps better than the old one.

Drilled and slotted allow the rotor to cool more easily which can help with high braking demands such as speed, rain, towing, etc. as many others have mentioned. However, slotted rotors do have one more benefit that makes it a MUST HAVE for me. A slotted rotor allows a way for the gravel to escape.

"All part-worn tyres are required to be thoroughly inspected internally and externally before sale, but in reality, far too many have not been checked at all,' he says. 'Many tyres are sold with structural damage that should mean the tyre is scrapped. The best course of action is simply to avoid part-worn tyres."

We understand that coilovers are wear and tear items and over time may eventually have a damper fail on you. One of the most common questions we get is are these coilovers rebuildable and do you offer rebuild/revalve service. The answer is that many race shops that service Billsetin are able to rebuild our coilovers.

The price of fixing warped rotors really depends on how warped they are. Going into a mechanics with an estimation of around $200 is a pretty reasonable deal. However, after this fix-up, chances are you won't have to worry about your rotors for a long time.

Much of this is determined by your driving habits or even the environment. Brake pads accumulate wear and tear much faster than other components on your braking system because they are, by nature, worn down every time you brake. In general, rotors do not need to be replaced until about 70,000 miles.

As a general rule, break pads should be replaced every 10,000-20,000 miles, while rotors should usually be replaced every 50,000-70,000 miles.

DBA rotors are great. Used them (old slotted design, replaced now by the T2 model?) in track cars doing a collective 1000-1800 laps a day. No issues other then warping if the car has been sitting too long after coming in hot. This would happen on any rotor.

A good time to do it would be during brake pad replacement when the wheels are already off the car. At this point, it's a 10-minute job rather than an hour or two.

The rotors are solid. They do not feel or appear cheap in any way. My truck has tremendous stopping power again now, and these brakes are extremely quiet. ... Best value for a Tundra brake kit on the market.
