Had to do the state inspection today. Mechanic said i need pads and rotors all around.
I asked what the thickness was and i was told its not based on thickness but how much scoring is on the rotor. That's a new one to me!
I do think the rotors need changing, 164k on them. Second set of pads!
Brakes don't fad or vibrate at all, even under heavy braking.
The shop failed my inspection and will give me a $$$ quote tomorrow when i call.Sounds suspicious to me.
They didn't care that my tires are a hair above the wear bars, only brakes.
So..If I decide to DIY rotors, do you have to replace the pads or can you re-install them? With scoring on the current rotors can you lightly grind the current pads smooth? Just a thought.
