undersized brake rotors???

firebalbb · 04-16-2007, 11:50 AM

i took my 99 audi a4 2.8L quattro to the dealership to fix a bad control arm. while there they said i needed to replace my front rotors because they were undersized???

i have never heard of undersized rotors...

none of my friends or family have heard of undersized rotors...

has anyone ever heard of undersized rotors?

Hahah, if your brakes are working fine then don't bother, I think that undersized rotors wouldn't fit on the car in general. Dealerships are ****s!! They have tried scamming me into rediculus things before becuase I am young.

your rotors are undersized or too thin aka exceeding the manufacturers min thickness limit stamped on the rotor, if your rotors arent warped u can still use them that just means that you cant have them turned

just a dealership doing what they do best - trying to rip you off.
