Front Brakes

I've had my 2012 370Z for 4 weeks. I have 1050 miles on it now. I feel a little bounce or bump in my front brakes when stopping.

You've probably got some build-up on the rotors. Look on line for a "bed-in" process and get some brake cleaner. Those two together should get rid of any build-up. The "warpage" thing is way overblown IMO. Most of the time, it's just glazing on the rotors. I'll probably be castigated for this, but that's my opinion.

Thanks. I will give it a try. I have not driven it hard yet. Only had 12 miles on it when I bought it. Any suggestion is a good suggestion.
