[QUOTE="moots, post: 237695, member: 219"] Really?You have used a DTI test to confirm this? Doing a stomp test once in a while to clear the deposits and glazing?Do we really need to do this as most drivers,me included,do this on a daily basis,to avoid frontal collision when idiot drivers brake to see accidents on the OTHER side of the highway,turn left or right without signalling,swerve left without warning to buy lemang etc etc. Brake pad glazing happens when you ride your brakes. My right rear disc was replaced because it WAS warped.How?The caliper piston was partially jammed and over time,the continous 'application' of brakes heated the disc up so much so that it warped. A new disc and a repair of the jammed caliper piston (due to a brake hose acting up as a chk vlv) fixed the rumble upon brake application issue:burnout: [/QUOTE]
