I will bring it to the dealer sometime this week and insist on NEW rotors and new pads .It has to be a problem with some rotors being defective. ? 
Unless its the front this time  (I looked at front pads they still look
meaty)
Hmmm3 did they replace or resurface your rotors ,I forgot ?. |
The first dealer resurfaced one rotor and put on new pads. Of course, I still had the sound. The 2nd dealer told me one rotor was clearily warped, so they turned it (again) and the other 3 as well. Replaced all brakes and pads. They said they also cut the pads slightly (?) into a wedge shape which they said will make them more operative for my driving purposes. (I live on a hill, so a lot of my driving goes up and down that hill). All I know is that SO FAR I haven't had that sound come back. It has been about 3 weeks and I've been to Las Vegas and back in it. keeping my fingers crossed. If the sound comes back anytime soon, I'll also insist on new rotors. I'm not going to have them re-surface them again. Good luck! Keep us updated!
