when needing brakes do you have to replace the rotors to
on a s60r
Yes you can replace your brake pads but it would be cheaper if you wait until you need a new rotor. I recommended waiting because its way better than replacing it before you need a new rotor.
first measure the brake rotor then inspect the rotor surface inspect the brake pad surface if either is rough or irregular then replace the rotor you will have better brake performance and brake pad -rotor life thank you
You will need to remove the tire and wheel of your 1998 Oldsmobile. Remove the brake pad assembly. Tap on the brake rotor with a hammer or mallet. Slide the brake rotor off. Reverse the process to install the new rotor and pads.
You need the relevant operating system and a wheel that will take a disc rotor .
Can I reuse a resurfaced brake rotor with a new rotor on a car
T-40 bit!
Replace rotor / cut rotor & replace brakes.
Yes, your brake rotor can be really expensive to replace. However, I do not think it will cost that much.
no
It can be easy to change the brake rotors. Lift the car, remove the tire, brake shoe and rotor, put on the new rotor, replace the brake shoe, tire and lower the car.
If you're changing the brake pads and there is too little rotor thikness to turn it, it should be replaced. If the rotor is warped and is too thin to be able to turn to remove the warping, replace it. If the brakes "pulsate" when you use moderate brake pressure, the rotor is warped.
The brake rotor functions similar to the breaks on a bicycle. Each brake rotor contains a rotor and a brake pad. When the brake is applied, the brake pads squeeze the rotor, causing the wheels to stop.
