[QUOTE="FordTechOne, post: 1857819, member: 35543"] Unless you’re buying cheap pads just to get by, the rotors should always be machined (on-car lathe only) or replaced with the brake pads. The friction material becomes embedded on the rotor surface over the life of the brake pads, which can then cause noise and vibration issues as the new pads bed in against the rotor surface. This leads to lateral runout and then thickness variation, which is the pulsation you feel in the pedal. The rotors are not actually “warped”, they just have high and low spots caused by uneven friction material deposits. [/QUOTE]
