The objective of the ProAutoAdvice blog is to share my 30+ years of experience running a highly trusted and respected complete auto repair service shop that prides itself on the motto: "We don't sell what you don't need". So, our goal here will be to help car, truck and SUV owners get more miles from their vehicles while also helping them select the best mechanics and auto service repair shops.

Preventing Brake Rotor Pulsation

Brake Rotor pulsation is caused by brake rotor thickness variations, which is usually the result of lateral run-out or rotor corrosion... When the vehicle is driven any high spots are worn down resulting in a thin spot on the rotor and pulsation that is transferred to the brake pedal when the brakes are applied.

Rotor corrosion is another cause of thickness variation and pulsation. If the corrosion is cosmetic refinishing the rotor is unnecessary. But more extensive corrosion may be the result of excessive build-up caused by brake pad material build-up and heat. In that case, it may be necessary to refinish or replace the brake rotors..
