Default problem with brakes

im trying to find some info for my friend.

he changed his front brake pads, turned the front rotors, and bled the 2 front calipers using a mity vac.

now when he brakes progressively, theres a faint pulsing coming from the front driver wheel. u can feel it in the brake pedal and floor.

im guessing it could be an incorrectly turned rotor or maybe he bled it wrong.

does anyone have any ideas on how to fix this problem?

thanks.

Bleeding doesn't create pulsing. It sounds like they werent "turned" properly. Honda recomends getting your discs turned while on the car. An on car lathe will remove any hub & disc variations. If you have an extra $40-$50, just go pick up a new set of discs from autozone, or order some brembo blanks from http://www.nopi.com. Otherwise, get the rotors turned on the car...
