Default warped rotors on a 2002 sentra - 07-31-2003 , 08:46 AM






I just took my 2002 Sentra (that I purchased June of last year) into
the dealership yesterday for my 18, 000KM scheduled maintenance, and
was told that my rotors were slightly warped and they want to machine
them. They guy also said that they weren't visibly warped but enough
to create a pulse at highway speed. My question is this.... should I
allow the machining of the rotors, which will thin them and make them
more suseptible to warping in the future..... or ask for new
rotors.... or just leave them and wait until my next scheduled
maintenance and see how they are then?

Thanks in advance for your help!

Leave it alone until it becomes a problem.

Ask, they'll probably say no.

Who's paying for the work ? Is the vibration noticeable ? It never
gets better, but sometimes it does not get worse for a very long
time.

Did you have a complaint about the brake pulsating or did they bring it to
your attention? If you hadn't noticed, I'd wait until the next service
interval.
