914World.com _ 914World Garage _ New Defective Rotor

Posted by: 76-914 May 16 2010, 02:58 PM

So I start some brake work Fri pm, i.e. front rotors and rubber hoses. I kinda "hog" the garage thinking I would finish by Sat am, latest. I do the hoses, the right front rotors/bearings. Then I get the next rotor for the left side and crap .......See the indention at 12 o'clock. It has definate edges, too! So it's a little out of round at this spot.

It's hard to see from a distance or I would have waited to start this job. I can't get another one shipped till Mon and I'm hogging the garage. The good news is that I bought from one of our reputable member vendors and not "china"bay.

Yes, I have had that problem before when the front rotors were made in Brazil. The holes were drilled off center for the lugs. It was a fricking mess.
