    Hi,

    Would like to know if anyone has experienced an uneven wear on the rotor similar to:

    https://rennlist.com/forums/attachme...c_0255_256.jpg

    Things done:

    1. Resurface
    2. Guide pin cleaned and greased

    After a week bumalik sya sa dating condition and sa front passenger side lang ang affected. The other side has even wear. The pads themselves seem to have even wear as per the mechanic so hindi na nya pinapalitan.

    Thanks in advance!

    Seems you already corrected the problem...

    Ano pa po gusto mo i clarify?

    As long as hindi bumalik yung uneven wear in a few months okay na yan.

    Isama mo na lang sa pms schedule mo to clean brakes every 10,000 km para laging nasisilip condition nyan

    This sir

    "After a week bumalik sya sa dating condition and sa front passenger side lang ang affected". Meaning uneven uli ang wear ng rotor.

    May nag check din ba nung pistons and cleaned them?

    Possible na madumi kaya hindi pantay pag press against the rotor nung brake pads mo.

    Sana lang hindi lumipis ng sobra yang affected rotor comparing it to the other side...

    If came with grinding noise and instability on the road, check the wheel bearings

    May rotors din na prone to warping talaga. Pag warped na, if you have it resurfaced, eventually babalik din sa dati.

    Also look up "cementite". That is what happens when part of the rotor becomes harder than a different area.

    Warping can be caused by abuse (riding the brakes downhill, frequent heavy braking) and the quality of the rotors.

    I replaced my daily driver's warped oem rotors with DBAs. Hopefully these are as good as advertised.

    you did not mention if you changed your brakepads with new ones after resurfacing the rotors. Ideally, a new set of brakepads is to be installed after resurfacing. With the pic you posted, I can only surmise that your caliper piston and cylinder is probably dirty and sticking and need servicing. It is also wise to change your caliper kit and flush your brake fluid with a fresh one as this is hygroscopic (attracts water) and collects debris overtime. As with the caliper kit, I always use OEM. No further explanation needed

    The OP's brake rotors are grooved, not warped. Cementite has nothing to do with it. You're confusing the OP.
