Have a 2003 cl-s. bought the car with 28k miles and put on 40k miles in about a year. problem i am having is my oem rotors had to be machined three times in one year. the third time i just replaced them for discitalia slotted and drilled rotos with ceramicool pads. i have had that combo for 12k miles and am starting to feel pulsation again. i am totally lost and get the feeling it isn't the rotors. i do not drive crazy, just a normal everday driver that puts on a lot of highway miles.

Low-to-medium speed shimmy with brakes not applied is a good indicator
of a ply-separated (ie: dangerous) tire, most likely in the front.


The pulsation under braking is probably the front brake rotors. Turned rotors are more prone to warpage.



Have both issued checked at a full-service tire/service center - no Wal-Mart/Sam's Club crap.

bought new tires 3 months ago, and rotate them religiously. since i bought the new rotors the problem isn't as bad, but still there. didn't know if it might indicate something more going on with the caliper or maybe the axle itself. can't imagine acura would design a car that would burn through rotors this fast.
