What would cause your brake rotors to become warped every couple of weeks even if they are new or freshly machined?
Brake pads can be staying applied to rotor causing excesive heat build-up and warp the rotor. Usualy caused by faulty caliper or caliper slides or caliper bracket. Also possible partially collapsed brake hose to caliper and incorrect or un even wheel lug torque. And also could be caused by person cutting rotors. The best machine to cut rotors is the machine that attaches to the vehicle and cuts the rotor on the car.

Why does a 1998 Subaru Outbacks Front brakes pulsate when applying the brakes?
you have out of round brake rotors, they can be replaced or machined if they are thick enough, the front pads should be replaced or placed on sand paper on a flat suface to remove the glazing so they will seat properly to freshly machined surface
Can slotted or drilled rotors be machined in a brake lathe?
Yes. It does not make a difference whether is is the conventional, slotted or drilled rotors. They can all be machined in a brake lathe with the same accurate result.
What happens if a ford focus 09 rotors need to be machined?
If the rotors on a 2009 Ford Focus need to be machined, it typically indicates that they have become warped or uneven due to wear and tear. Machining involves grinding the rotors to create a smooth surface, which can help restore braking performance and extend their lifespan. However, if the rotors are too thin after machining or have significant damage, they may need to be replaced instead. Regular inspection and maintenance of brake components are essential for safe driving.
Why does a 1998 Hyundai elantra shake when you step on the gas after you slow down or stop?
When you vibrations when braking, it usually means you have warped brake rotors. A warped brake rotor's surface can become uneven after a period of extremely heavy braking or age. Consider having your disc brake system serviced, check your pads, and get the rotors machined. When rotors get machined a machine grinds them down to an even surface. Typically it cures scoring, glazing, and warping.
Bouncing or a wobble in your front end and when braking?
Probably warped brake rotors. They can be taken off and machined true or just replace with new rotors.
How do you rotate rotors on 2000 Honda accord?
You do not rotate rotors. Replace a bad rotor or have it machined if possible. Never rotate them to another wheel location.

How do you stop squeaking brakes on a 93 VW Golf?

What causes 1992 brakes to squeak?
worn pads change your brake pads and get your rotors machined while your at it
Steering wheels shakes when braking?
You need the front rotors machined or replaced.
Do new rotors need to be machined before use?
No just put them on. If they were bad they could be sued for a defective product. Actually Honda/Acura specify that NEW rotors be "refinished" with an on-car brake lathe...
Why does my Kia Optima vibrate when you brake?
Brake vibration is usually caused by the brake rotors being warped. The rotors must be machined or replaced to correct the problem. if you can feel it in the steering then the drums are or rear rotor could be warped
