check it out, might convince you that all those times you thought your rotors were warped, they were just covered unevenly with brake pad material deposits.

 

very interesting. i'll read all of it later

 

i do not know how much truth can be had there, but it sure makes an interesting point. however, i have seen many look like a sun warped frisbee....

 

i think what happens is the same as a clutch, you get a little bit of pad material that becomes a high spot, and then that can heat the disc unevenly.

huh... kinda interesting, I have heard this rumor before...that disks don't warp

 

well, they do, but i have only really seen a warped disc on a car that has been on the track for numerous hours and laps. that will really put it to the test, residual heat that is.......and we all know that using the e brake on a very hot brake rotor is not good....
