    if the control arm bushings are bad and the alignment is off it can feel like that a little but its probably the rotors.

    Are they the original calipers? I know some places recommend replacing calipers on both sides of a car to match. one may have more breaking force.

    When was your last alignment?

    Warped rotor after two years?

    Unless you all might think it is something else, my steering wheel has a shimmy whenever apply my brakes. The car also has a tendancy to pull to the passenger side when braking.

    I replaced all my rotors and pads about two years ago....less than 20k miles with a combination of highway and town driving.

    I'm not sure if I went with OEM replacements the first time, but I know I ordered them from RMEuropean.

    If I replace the rotors, I know it is a good rule of thumb to replace the pads. Seeing as how these pads should have plenty of more life, should I just replace the front rotors, or do the pads too?

    Also, if the rotor isn't warped, could it be something else? The passenger side caliper was also replaced, so I don't think the caliper requires a rebuild at this point.
Working...
