Hey guys,

One quick question. How often are you "supposed to" sand your rotors?

i sanded the rotors and the pads 6 months after i put them in

 

Who told you to sand the rotors at all? I am not familiar with any process that sands the rotors and/or the pads once they have been in service.

 

He means to have the rotors cut/turned machine wise not manually sanded down by hand.

The only time to have the rotors cut/turned is if your getting a vibration/shake in the steering wheel when braking. Obviously you can only have that done if enough metal is left on the rotors. A qualified mechanic can look at your rotors and let you know it's feasible to salvage your old rotors or just purchase new ones. Once that's done purchase new OEM pads.

 

i sand mine with sand paper to get rid of the glaze.. no harm is really done to the rotors or pads when u do this...

 

My speedo is incorrect, not as bad as hisbut is still very incorrect. I do have 20" rims if this makes any difference......I don't know. Is the speedometer able to be adjusted at all or something? Any help would also be greatly appreciated! Thanks,

I have also noticed some heat cracks in alsorilled hole in one of my front rotors. I also kind of feel a little bit of a rough/slight grinding when coming to a easy halt sometimes when stopping.
---->I hear that when you have heat crack its can eat away at the brake pad. Do you think this is happening to me? Should I replace?
