Have a 06 Base, first owner...46K miles on it. About 30K of that is freeway.

Anyways, I noticed it started to shake whenever I applied the brakes. At high speeds (70+) I would really feel it in the steering wheel. Not so much on the brake pedal.

Called a shop, they said it was my rotors were wharped. Took it in and they resurfaced the front rotors and intalled some Hawk pads on the front.

Was okay for about 50 miles, now the shaking is back....not as bad this time, but progressively worse than from when I got it back last week.

Do you guys think it's the rear rotors? Or what.

Thanks for the advice.

50F

 

They probably had to cut too much. 46K is a lot on a rotor these days.

I'd replace them if it were anywhere near the machine to limit, other wise you'll be dealing with it again.

Rear rotors would give you a pulsation more in the pedal and not the wheel.

 

Front Rotors are warped for sure

 

yup my 05 with 48k is doing the same thing...warped rotors it is

 

Man, they must not be making rotors like they used to. Warped at 46K is common??

Ge'ez, I can see it if I drive like an maniac...but I don't.

So who makes decent rotors that wont warp at 45K

 

I don't know but, if you figure that out let me know

 

MY rotors just warped at 10,000 miles on my 2007. Imagine how i feel

 

i had rotor problems when i first got my z in july with 50 miles on it how do u think i feel

 

^^^^ my wheels fell off the car in its first mile, then the ground ripped away at my poor rotors...so i guess they were warped, then i got out, got a phone call, my whole family was murdered, then my distant family was all eaten by wilderbeasts...how do u think i feel

I r winner

 

could be any number of things

rotors too thin

torn/worn bushings


rotors don't really "warp" - they get deposits on them, usually from improper pad break in, using the wrong pad for the conditions under which you drive, etc.

Repeating the pad break in prodecude will generally get rid of it, unless the rotors are too thin in the first place, at which point, a replacement will be required

 

 

You beat me to it.
