My rotors are warped, severely. They have about 80,000 km (50k miles) on them, mostly highway. There is a groove where the pad touches that's pretty deep, 2-3mm.
New front rotors from the dealership are $171/ea, but I called partssource and they have AC Delco premium front rotors for $71/ea. Are these the same as the stock rotors? Or should I get some of these slotted or drilled rotors, I don't want to buy from ebay. Shipping is too expensive. I do hate the rust that forms every time it rains on the rotors I have now.
Another thing is my lifetime warranty pads from Midas, I kind of regret getting these. Could they do damage to rotors?
I've read around the forum, and I have a couple questions on removing the rotors as well. Especially about how to remove the calipers. I removed the two bolts from the back of the caliper, but the caliper wouldn't come out. Is there a trick? Anyone have a picture?
And if replacing pads, do you have to bleed the break line? how does that go down?
Thanks for your help.
