    Hey guys if you have a car that vibrates when hitting the brake this is the right video for you. Wrapped disc brake rotors will cause vibration in the steering wheel and the whole car over time. If you notice some vibrations when going 75mph and you hit the brake and you notice vibrations in the steering wheel it is very likely that you have wrapped brake rotors. You will be able to notice it at lower speeds as well. It will be filling like pulsing.

    When replacing your rotors, remember, new rotors can be warped and uneven right out of the box!! This can cause "surging" when you press the brake peddle, even at very low speed you'll feel the car jerking. So it's a smart practice to consider turning rotors, even when they're new, before installing them.

    Hi, I have a 2011 Volkswagen Jetta 1.8T. And my problem is that the steering wheel vibrates (not the brake pedal) only when I apply medium pressure to the brakes at 50-60 km/h. At high speeds and lower speeds it doesn't do it. This problem began when I changed all rotors, brake pads and rotated the wheels (both of the rears to the front keeping each one on the same side of the car as the owners manual says). I wirebrushed both front hubs so the rotor sits flush, inspected rotors and pads, brake caliper doesn't stick. Also checked both steering end rod and links.

    you need to sand the brake pads too to make it flat and even, because it will put uneven pressure on the rotors and you will need to do this job again soon, if the brake pads are under the half it's better to put new pads oem or greater.
    I use caborator cleaner to unstuck the rotors from the hub.

    Only problem is a lot of places don't wanna turn rotors anymore... They'd rather just sell you new ones... Prices are like 15-25$ to turn and like 20-50$ for new so there not too much of a difference...... Some might say new rotors could be wrapped but it's also true that some newbie could botch up the turning especially if you take it to a chain store where they got some part-timer on the lathe......
    Also if your rotor are 5- 10 years just get new ones...

    • @drenels10
      @drenels10 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Rotors for my car are 80 for the front and 60 for the rear. That’s the cheapest I’ve seen. So when it comes to spending $100 at most to turn vs $380 to replace, that’s a big difference lol

      But is it worth your life on each amount? Think about going 70 mph and needing to stop on a dime with the unsettling shaking. Chances are you are going to be paying hundreds more if you get into an accident.

  • @SeanDIY

    When you turn a rotor it thins out the material and the heat makes it more likely to warp. Just replace the rotors and pads.

      @CrowT 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      @Charles H Geis IV If your rotors are so screwed up and warped that your steering wheel is vibrating...its unlikely having them turned will fix the problem. Mine were doing this last year and no shop around here would even do it. Just replaced them and the pads🤷‍♂️

    • @andrewhigdon8346
      @andrewhigdon8346 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Agreed that turning them will smooth out the braking issue. BUT, turning rotors removes material, and the reduced mass will allow them to get hotter more quickly, which could result in the same runout or warpage even more quickly than before. But yes, if you can get them turned properly for ten bucks a piece, by all means do that, but I didn’t know it was that cheap.

    • @pczapp827

      Wheel Alignment does not correct shaking,vibration,squealing or anything else,
      unless it was not done correctly previously,a little tire wear issue may be corrected
      but without replacing the worn parts that cause all vehicle issues, your wasting your money
      on alignment, expecting it to somehow fix a mechanical wear issues or bent parts

    One other thing that can cause the shaking of the steering wheel, is the brake show pins being bad. One I had was that the top pin was not cleaned/greased when it was out for a brake AND rotor replacement. The top pin moved ever so slightly but would not come out. So, a year later, it was frozen. All I had to do was remove the pin (hard, but it came out) and cleaned the pin and bore with brake parts cleaner and then I greased it. Tested smooth as a baby bottom, and no more shaking.

  • @Desmodromic916
    @Desmodromic916 5 ปีที่แล้ว +8

    You need to separate caliper from the carrier in order to lubricate the sliding pins, so the brake force can be even on both sides of disc.
    If sliders are jammed, it could be the cause of vibration.
    Judging by the condition of disc and torex bolt, it seems that someone did a poor brake service recently.
    I would not be surprised if vibrations return after a while.
    Best regards.

    The brake rotor is damaged by heat caused the rotor wobble. It is not worth to fix it. Go to ebay get a set of new rotors with ceramic brake pads. The new rotor has a ventilation hole and slots can run cooler. The ceramic pads are much cooler and better stop distance.

      Hello Mr. Jaswinder. The steering wheel on my car shakes when I apply brakes above 120kmph, it works well in normal speed. I had replaced all my tyres last month, so I thought it could be due to the the imbalance of the new tyres. But even after the balancing was done last week, it still vibrates. I am not really sure what's causing the problem. The mechanic told me that if it's the warped rotors, then the shake will happen at low speed as well. So, I don't know where to start. Can you please tell me what are the other things I should check? Or maybe one or more tyres are defective? It's a Chevy optra magnum which has done 98K Kms on the odo. Thank you for your help!

    Wait!!! Where did you take the rotors to get shaved down?? How much was the job? I thought you had to buy new rotors.

      The normal person, who does not know how to remove parts from his/her own car, is probably going to have to pay a fortune to get new ones. But honestly, whether you take the cheaper way out of getting them shaved or you get new ones; your life is worth it. I had this happen to me yesterday on a 2 hour trip each way and I was hesitant to even use the brake and THAT is not a good sign.

  • @zacharyparis

    your rotors are not warped. they never are. the vibration is caused by uneven distribution of brake pad material on the rotor. you just need to bed the pads correctly when they are new.

    • @zacharyparis
      @zacharyparis 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Sheneitra Howard vibration under braking and just being due for new brakes are separate issues. if you are due for new brakes then the proper way to do it is to get new pads and rotors at the same time. whether you resurfaced or replace the rotors just be sure to bed the pads correctly.

      NOT true..... chuck those rotors up and see if they run TRUE.. guarantee you will have some RUN -OUT in them.. very common these days.. brake rotors are smaller overall to save weight, too much heat build up causes warp-age easily depending how aggressive people drive braking wise ... and the thinner they get from machining the MORE they will warp because they can't release the heat... I have machined HUNDREDS of rotors over the years and YES they have run-out

    • @zacharyparis
      @zacharyparis 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      rotors do not warp due to heat. no normal person will ever get steel rotors hot enough to warp. i have been tracking my cars for the last ten years on steel rotors. repeated braking from 100+ miles per hour all day around the track creating extremely hot brakes... and not one warped rotor. the run out variance is due to the rotor not being perfectly flush with the hub. the other most common issue that causes vibration is an uneven distribution of brake pad material on the rotor.

      check the lower control arms bushings. If those are bad, while going fast, its pretty hard to keep the car in the lane when there are imperfections on the road. Also thumping when going over some dips.

    Just as easy to buy new rotors. Why go through all that when getting new ones is much simpler. Unless you have to machine to do it. It is not worth it in the long run.

      Some of the brand new rotors you can buy are so poorly made that they will do this almost immediately after installing them.
