It just made some noise...here and there, the brake pads are good, so maybe the rotors are getting thin!! I am going to get a new rotors today and lift my car up this weekend to see if I need to replace or not. Thanks "E" :-)

probably from the dust stuck between the pads and rotors. unless your feeling a vibration when you apply the brakes i wouldnt replace the pads or rotors till your next brake job. also mic the rotors too to know if u can still cut them

Wasssuppers everyone?!?! Sorry i have been MIA... just been working like crazy with the new position. I watched the new terminator last week. Pretty entertaining but not the best story in the world. Definitely not as violent as the 1st terminator with Arnold killing everyone. Although he does make an appearance in the new one... well kinda.

I already got a pair of new front rotors so this weekend I would enjoy lift the car up and get dirty. I would measure the thickness of the rotors with the service manual....sound fun.

ps. I saw the Terminator, I was hoping more battle field scene like human and robots...I guess I would have to see that in Transformers.......

Rotors have actual measurements and discard specs.

If your keeping same pads be sure to use emery cloth to clean surface of pads if not then the particles from pads will do right back onto new rotors
