Inigo Montoya

Couple of weeks ago I noticed that I was getting some shaking while braking. So figuring that I has a warped front rotor, I went and got some replacements (lifetime warranty) and installed them. They seemed to improve things, but now it seems I am getting the shaking back.

I have not done and racing, road or autocross, and it has only been a few thousand miles since I did the replacement.

Anyone have any other things I should check at this point. Still have drums on the rear, car has 105,000 miles or so. 98 coupe.

Did you change the pads at the same time?

didn't change the pads at the time of the rotors, i did inspect them and they were smooth (not glazed), no big chips or anything, and plenty of pad left.

It would be the next culprit, i wanted to see if anyone thought it might be something more serious.

Tires look fine on the inside and out, just got new ones under 7,000 miles ago.

Have you had your wheels balanced?
ALso check your tie rods, I had a bad tierod before and caused shaking.

you should have done the pads ,,,,,,,,, always do the pads when you putting new rotors on no matter if they only been on there a couple hundred miles its a must that you change them,,,,,,,,,,
now i would go out there and get new pads and get your rotors turned so they are smooth again and that might fix the problem right up

im in the same boat as you.

resurfaced my rotors couple months ago, didn't replace pads, now it's shaking again. guess you live and you learn
