sry, back on topic.... at 1500 miles he has warped rotors. is this not the fact? sounds crazy it happened, since i agree the factory rotors are so damn beefy it would take some very aggressive driving to get them hot enough in the first 1500 miles to bend the metal. (im not saying its impossible)
|
i agree it is possible, but it is extremely unlikely at that mileage, with no track days. pad deposits get diagnosed as rotor warpage all the time. its no different than people claiming high oil temp robs power when the shop manual shows it doesnt do it directly (unless it messes with the vtc?). he got it replaced, thats all that matters.

I appreciate all the dialogue guys. Again, I want to reiterate that the car has not been tracked or even driven in the canyons. This is basically my drive to work on Fridays and the golf course on the weekends.
The only thing that I can only think of is when I wash the car I use Sonax full effect wheel cleaner. Sometimes the over spray of the cleaner lands on the rotors. Do wheel cleaners damage brake rotors? I know that's a far fetched hypothesis, but that's the only other thing I can come with. BTW, when they change my rotors, should I push for new pads also? |
it could, but extremely unlikely. many people have tracked their cars in pouring rain and they dont get warped discs from it. chalk it up as bad luck, nothing you can do now and be glad they fixed it for free!
doubt you will get new pads, but you can ask..... |
yea, glad your back on the road. and for free!
|
This happened to my2011sportZ also. it had 300~ miles on it.Nissan cut them and it was all gone. I am gonna replace rotors, these should have been Cross drilled/ slotted stock ><
|
reading all the members comment, most of them prefer resurfacing the rotors for the wrap problem.
are they any other solution in solving the wrap issue, other than resurfacing? please comment on this. |
Resurfacing will solve the problem 99% of the time. The vibration is typically caused by pads leaving deposits on the rotors making them uneven. The only real way to warp these rotors besides them being defective from the start is to hose them down immediately after some spirited driving.
