Rotors Turned
i own a 2000 honda accord, i got new front brakes and my rotors turned for a $150 at a local repair shop?


i dont really know much abt cars, did i get ripped off for that price? also after getting the repair i still hear a squeaky noise most times when i step on my brakes, but not everytime tho, i took the car to a seperate repair shop and they say i got cheap metallic part instead of ceramic, thats why its making that noise. i took it back to the 1st mechanic and he says im not supposed to hear any squeal or squeak whichever one, well the problem the mechanic couldnt reproduce the sound , couple of hours after i leave the repair shop i start hearing this sound again, its been 4days now and i still hear this squeak, should i go back to the mechanic, to fix it since i already payed for it?
i just changed the pads, and got the rotors turned.

that a good price,take it back if your not happy or up grade to the ceramic pads,was the front brake hardware also replaced or just the pads.

Sport Rotors (Slotted, Cross Drilled, Cross Drilled & Slotted) Must Be Purchased In Pairs. The Word "(PAIR)" Indicates Sport Rotor Models Therefore Must Be Purchased As A Pair. Slotted brake rotors reduce brake fade. Slotted rotors also improves rotor cooling, again defeating brake fade. On Slotted rotors, temperatures can be reduced by as much as 200 degrees during extreme braking when compared to stock rotors. Brembo Sport Slotted brake rotors are sold in axle pairs. Together with its unique know-how in the manufacturing of braking systems for high performance vehicles, Brembo is able to guarantee top quality standards and the most advanced technological knowledge, making it a world market leader in its sector. Brembo is the natural choice for use in the most sophisticated sports vehicles and high-class saloon cars. Its skill ensures an unsurpassable performance level in the best cars produced in Europe, the USA and Japan today. The electronic balancing system allows to eliminate any possible difference in the weight split of vented discs, avoiding vibration  risks. The perfectly uniform thickness of the braking surfaces ensures top performance, maximum comfort and much higher durability of the components. The precise finish of the braking surface, ground or fine turned depending on OE specifications, ensures improved pad-discs fit and better running-in. The extremely precise tolerance guarantees correct run-out values and the elimination of several types of disc vibrations. Features: Maximum safety in time: Careful design, based on advanced calculation systems, controls the heat transmission from the braking surface to the hat section. Advanced solutions: the use of specific cast irons, coming from the integration of foundries in the production process, allows for exclusive technical and planning know-how. High comfort and longer durability: Exact tolerances guarantee maximum performance of braking system components. Better synergy between the friction material and disc: Careful finishing guarantees a turned or ground braking surface as for Original Equipment specifications. Reduction of vibration risks: An electronic balancing system is used during the production process to eliminate possible unbalanced weight distribution of ventilated discs. Prices shown are per rotor. Rotors must be purchased in pairs.

Brush Research BURMFHC Flex Hone for Rotors


Brush Research BURMFHC Flex Hone for Rotors


$49.06


Lowers Harmonic Vibrations Harmonic vibration at the padrotor interface is a prime cause of friction induced braking noise. The FlexHone for Rotors reduces high pitched squeal and groan caused by a peaky rough turned finish. More Rotors Per Hone Lasts much longer than abrasive pads. NonDirectional Finish Spiral grooves on the braking surface are a prime cause of friction induced brake noise. Ideal for New Rotors too. Removes the cut torn and folded metal fragments from the surface.

Essential Car Safety - Brake Pad Inspection

There is probably no car safety component more important than your brakes.  Regular brake inspections and pad replacement are very simple to do and will save you money in the long run if you do them yourself.  In this article I will provide you with a basic overview of brake pad inspection and replacement.

If you are pressed for time, I recommend that you check the front end for sure.  Front brakes do most of the stopping and tend to wear out about twice as fast as the rear pads.  This doesn't mean you can skip the rear inspection... you want to be sure you are looking at those brakes at least twice a year!

The first thing you need to do is inspect your rotors.  The best way to accomplish this task is to remove the tire so that you can easily view all of the parts.  I like to combine this with a regular tire rotation, but you can simply chock the wheels, jack up the tire and pull it off.  With this done, take a look at the rotor.  This is the round disk that the brakes squeeze to stop the car.  It should be shiny from the inside to the outer edge. Don't worry if you can see slight lines in it, this is normal wear. However, if there are any rough spots or pronounced grooves in the disc, you should replace the rotors.  This is generally a simple process and rotors are not terribly expensive. It is a better option than having the rotors "turned" (refinished by a machine shop) because turning the rotors removes metal, making the rotor slightly thinner.  Brake discs should always be replaced in pairs to ensure even stopping, a huge safety factor.

Time to inspect the pads.  With the tire still off, take a look at each pad.  You should see a brake pad on each side of the rotor. If you follow the surface of the disc to the top, you'll see the outside pad touching the disc. If there is 1/8" or less remaining on the pad, you need new pads.  There are different types of pads you can get, and your budget may determine your choice, but if you are looking for the best combination of braking properties, then you want to go with a ceramic brake pad.  They are generally more expensive than a semi-metallic pad, but they perform better in many ways.
