I had the timing chain replaced yesterday on my 2007 Honda Ridgeline (190,000 miles) and was told that the front brakes only had a little life left in them, but that the rotors couldnb t be turned so

Turning rotors is generally a fool's game these days, and I see a few choices in reasonable quality replacement rotors for an '07 Ridgeline in RockAuto's catalog for $30-40 each. You can get adequate

Thanks John. My follow-up question was going to be on the value of inexpensive rotors. :) The only reason for wanting to avoid replacing the rotors (besides just being cheap) is because they are held

I think the reason most shops turn rotors is to get rid of uneven brake pad deposits that will cause chatter/vibration/pulsing. You could cleanup the rotors with a 3M scotch brite pad (also have them

These days, it's not worth turning rotors. Don't those two little screws just keep the rotors from falling off when the wheel is removed? If they are stuck, you could just drill them out and forget a

I don't recall any special challenges on my 2004 Odyssey when I last did those brakes. Be sure to properly support the calipers so the dust boots on the pistons don't snag on anything. You can test t

Brake rotors do not warp. They wear unevenly because they're not installed properly (those screws serve a purpose, and lug nuts have torque specs and patterns for a reason.) or have too much runout.

If that is the only purpose, manufacturers would have come up with someting substantially cheaper than drilling and tapping holes in the hubs. The screws serve to properly locate the rotor against th
