Ok, so having replaced my front discs for the third time I can notice that the rotors is being warped again. I have only driven 250 miles with my new set and I can now feel that they (or maybe just one of them) are slightly warped. I replaced the new discs with OEM toyota discs and EBC greenstuff pads. I have noticed that the right disc is much warmer that the left one. Ok, so I thought that the caliper is stuck somehow. I have overhauled all four calipers about 6 months ago. Today I took out the caliper and both sylinders, all seems fine and the slide without any prob. I can push them into the caliper body with just my fingers! I tried a testrun without no braking at all and I can say for sure that the right disk are warm (let's say about 115F), so the caliper are not retreating fully? Not working 100%? I have no more ideas, I really hope someone can help me. I am getting really frustrated
Edit: Oh, I've been really careful when braking. This post has been edited by eliaz: Jun 4, 2006 - 7:01 AM -------------------- |

So today I have been really pissed of since i picked up my Celica at Toyota. They were going to replace hub and bearing. First thing when i came there they said that they had broke my abs sensor at the right wheel. Damn, that thing costs $184!! And guess who gotta pay??! Me!! I took the Celi out for a test drive and it feels a bit better, but i was not happy. I drove right back to the dealer and said that i was not very happy now. One mechanic came with me in the car, he drove and i think he liked it Anyway, he said the rotor was warped so there goes $92 again! I'm getting a new abs sensor and a new rotor on monday so i'll se how the Celi will be after that..
