What else can I help you with?
Do brake rotors come as a set?
No. Brake rotors are sold individually specific to your make and model, but it is recommended that you always replace both sides at the same time.
Mercedes 560 1985 the light between the battery and brake light comes on when appling the brake?
That light coming on when you apply the brakes is your brake sensors, from the front brakes, telling you that it's about time to replace the front brake pads. You still have some time to replace the pads and sensors, maybe a thousand miles would be my guess. Depending on the wear on the rotors (check the lips on the outside edge of the rotors) you might only need to replace the pads, and not the rotors. It's not recommended to turn these rotors, but replace them. It's cheaper to just swap the rotors. You can pick rotors up for under $40.00 each, and pads for around $35.00. Sensors are under $10.00 for the 4 you need. And then the brake grease to apply on the back of the pads is only a few dollars. So for around $125.00, you can have a front brake job, providing you're doing the work yourself. If you take it to a garage, it will cost $3-350.00. Dealerships will probably charge you at least $500.00.
How much to replace vw jetta breaks?
It'll run you around $500-$800. The brake rotors have to be replaced at the same time as the pads because the original rotors were extremely thin.
Why car shakes while driving and braking?
Rotors are warped. Have them trued or replaced as necessary. Also replace the brake pads at the same time.
How often should I rotate brake rotors to ensure optimal performance and longevity of my vehicle's braking system?
It is recommended to rotate brake rotors every time you replace brake pads, which is typically every 30,000 to 70,000 miles, to ensure optimal performance and longevity of your vehicle's braking system.
What would be the cause of scrapping noise coming from brakes when the brake is not applied?
you need to replace your brake pads. if you don't, in due time, they will wear down and put grooves on your rotors and that is NO bueno.
What could be the problem if a buick park avenue steering shakes while braking?
Warped brake rotor. Have the rotors removed and trued or replaced. Replace the brake pads at the same time.
What makes car tremble when braking?
This is not much information, but I'll give it a try. If the front brake rotors have too much run-out, "wider in some spots than others" then the rotors need refaced or replaced. If the problem is in the rear brakes, the brake drums are out-of-round and need resurfaced. If you feel the tremble in the brake pedal when you brake, then the problem is certainly in the brake system. ------------ He is correct...the rotors are probably warped. Replace the rotors if they are warped that bad. You can get them turned but they are going to be thinner than new rotors and whatever caused them to warp last time will happen faster. (heavy braking and riding your foot on the brake can cause the rotors to warp)
I have a 03 Envoy XL has anyone experience brake sqeaking when you replace brake pads and rotors are good?
Did you use ceramic brake pads? If so, that could be the problem. Unless it's super bad, you don't really have anything to worry about. Next time, use semi metallic brake pads. Also if the rotors were not turned this will surely cause disk brake squeal.
What is it called if the rotor is thicker toward the hub and thinner toward the outside of the rotor?
It's called a taper. Time to replace the rotors, calipers and brake pads.
Why replace brake rotors?
Brake rotors are subject to a lot of heat and wear. After a period of time, they warp and have to be "turned". turning the rotors actually makes them thinner so they won't last as long as they did. Everytime they are turned, the thinner they get. There is a point where they are too thin to safely use. That point is stamped on the rotors and it is illegal for someone to turn past them that point. Rotors are not expensive and your brakes are the most important part of your car. I wouldn't skimp on my brakes.
Why does your car shake when you brake?
its probably the trim in your car hanging loose or if its your whole chassis you might want to take the car tested and replace the brake pads ------------------ The brake rotors are warped. Have them turned or replaced. This is a very common problem, i see it all the time. You may as well replace the pads while you are at it.
