Just got a call from my Cheverlay dealer about my front rotor problem(2nd rotor and needs turning again). It seems that there is a new bulletin out describing a kit that supposed to control the runout(what ever that is)on the rotors when they turn them.

So, I'm the first one down here to try out the procedure at no charge of course.

Here we go again...

Yeah, we talked about the torquing and the pads and the way I brake and the way I wash the car and the way I brush my teeth and what I had for breakfast and how's my prostate, and, and...the saga continues!

Hell, they're just crappy rotors...

...its a type of lathe that turns the rotors, on the car.
