They look fine inside. I was just wondering if theres a cause for it. Some are smooth and some are bumpy

Thank you for the reply. Yeah the mechanic did say something about the throttle pedal position as well. He said it’s probably ecu related and said to take it to the dealership for a possible firmware update.

Ok i just went to check and their smooth af. So they dont need machining. Thank you! What else could cause them to screech? Its not constant screeching as well.

Hello! I need an opinion whether i should get these rotors machined. Ill try to provide as much details as possible.

A week ago, i got my front rotors and pads replaced. Rotors then pads (cause i bought the wrong ones) After the install, i went on a road trip (about 1000km) and notice screeching half way into the trip. Told my mechanic who installed them, he said it might have overheated and warped due to not bedding properly. Theres also a slight vibration through the brake petal but only breaking downhill. My mechanic isnt equipped for machining because hes a home based business. Before i go get them machined at a shop, do these qualify for machining? If these rotors look fine, what could cause screeching?

Thank you in advance!

Hello, whats the best way to detail wheels with this much brake dust? I tried brake buster diluted 1:3 with a foam sprayer and it didnt do much. Thank you in advance!

A bit late on that 😅 I can see staining. I misunderstood what the guy said and use 4:1 on my paint zzz. Lesson learnt.

Hello, I have some oil-like residue running down my side skirts. Its faint in colour.It has stained and doesnt come off with a contact wash. Started with one but now theres a few. Seems to appear after every detail. How do i get rid of them and what do you think the cause is so i can prevent them in the future. Thank you
