how did you confirm sir that the rotors were warped?

have it refaced in a machine shop first. if you drive normally, it would be fine.

meron na akong nararamdaman na konting vibrations while braking. then nung nag pa pms ako sa casa. sinabi nila na meron nang konting warp yung rotors (pero hindi ko sinabi na meron akong ganung experience before the service). 6k kasi ang singil ng casa to replace my pads kasi daw medyo matigas (nilagay ito ng owner before second hand ko na kasi nabili yung car) plus yung pag machine shop nung rotors.

Anong brand ba ng brake pads ang nakalagay? As for the warped rotors, usually nasa P400+ per piece ang singil sa machine shops for refacing pero ikaw ang magpapakalas/magkakalas. Madali lang naman kalasin yan if you have the tools for the job.

try mo muna pa reface sa machine shop baka pwede pa maayos yung rotors.
for the brake pads naman, you can use bendix gt (price is less than 1k)

Are replacement rotors already available for the 10th gen Altis? Try calling shops like Toyorama or NGK in Banawe if they already have.

Sakit talaga of some Toyotas yung warped rotors it seems. We've encountered this on all three 9th gen Altis models our family owned, our Hiace Grandia and Camry 2007. With the Altis, we never got this problem again after getting replacement rotors (even if i use the grippier Bendix Metal King pads).

BTW, if the car is under warranty, the CASA replaces the warped rotors if the car was still on OEM brake pads.

pwede mo pa machine shop yan, if the machine shop can measure the disc rotor ran-out better para sure na sure...
after mo ma-pa machine shop sa labas, use bendix metal king brake pads... madumi lang sa rims pero you will feel the grip..

Kung thickness variation lang, pwede pa-resurface.

But kung talagang warped na, as in otso, kung lampas na sya sa allowable run-outs, hindi na pwedeng i-resurface at kelangan nang palitan.

aside from the refacing option, try to visit servitek alabang (in front of toyota alabang), try to ask for a quote.

[bluefire_xl]

thanks po sa mga replies. try ko maghanap kung saan pwede mag pa reface muna.

If your car is still under warranty, use it. If not you better change it with a quality after market brands like Runstop. It will also have better material and has cross driiling & slotted to dissipate heat better...
