QUOTE(mengsuan @ Jun 29 2013, 06:20 PM) My rotor is probably warped, you guys may have noticed the loud braking noise from my new ceramic brake pad which should have been quiet. Skimming costs RM80. I'm thinking to change the front pair of rotors. Any recommendation? After u change brake pad,the sound appears after few days drive rite? Wad is the optimum braking temp for d new brake pads? If u think changing rotors help and more worth than skimming then go ahead...but if after change rotors and after few days drive sound appears again..means brake pad material quality not tat good...not sure whether high braking temp brake pads is one of d causes of the noise or not... Need to ask davidke20 for further details..

QUOTE(mengsuan @ Jun 29 2013, 09:22 PM) If rotor uneven/warped, that's what skimming is for right? I drive on MEX/SMART/Kesas everyday to work, once I get to cruising, it's easily 130km/h and above, then I'll have to brake to exit. Perhaps these high speed braking use up a lot of brake pad. ckdenion, I heard you skimmed your rotor for RM60? Where is that? Yea rotor uneven/warped need to b skimmed.mine is due to lousy new brake pads that cause my rotor uneven! Lol...even like tat also wont so habis cepat gua unless u go track race la...cz for mine...i changed at 45k...but advisable to change at 30k...i let my mechanic skim lo...near my house...i forgot is rm70 per rotor or rm70 for 1 side...need to check back my receipt...

QUOTE(davidke20 @ Jun 29 2013, 10:52 PM) » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « If your disc rotor warped, the most significant thing will be brake pedal rejection. As you hit the brakes, your feet will feel numb/shakey from the force feedback from uneven rotor surface. Distinctive screeching sound could be as follow:
- Uneven disc rotor - but you'll get to feel it with your feet. If your feet doesn't get any feedback from the pedal, which means it's not. Even if there's uneven, it should be totally negligible.
- Disc cover bent and hit your rotor. Refer picture below:

- If you have just recently changed to new pad, suddenly these type of distinctive screeching sound appear, it could be your rotor being grind off too much, left a sharp edge that causes brake pad grinding noise. Usually it takes a Genting hard driving to grind in your new pad, so it fit your rotor.

- The new brake pad working temperature sohigh
I usually stick to BOSCH pads, street use spec, many dust but does very little harm to rotor. Performance, just barely suffice my usual short spiritual driving. My brake pads usually lasted me atleast 30k km, unless I go Genting often. If I go track"ing", will hook up a pair of local made MINTYE pads, it's cheap, noisy but reasonable braking performance street use pad. On wheel brake rotor skim usually RM35/side. Off wheel skim usually RM50/side. On wheel skimming will have better accuracy since bearing movement is included. Off wheel skimming will have maximum flat surface, absolutely glass effect after skim. CK case could be discounted price. If figured the brake rotor bent too much, might as well change to a new unit. Funker Choy is selling his racing rotor away I heard  Can fit Persona/Gen2.   nice info sharing here yes! mintye is the one im using that cause the brake screeching sound...after changing to TRW brake pads...problem solve...not sure is itu mintye vry old stock then the other mechanic use it for me or the quality of the brake pad is not that good...

QUOTE(davidke20 @ Jun 29 2013, 11:25 PM) Minthye too much asbestors, compound too hard alas the screeching sound despite not hitting the brake pedal. It is very normal geh. Again like I said, it's cheap and powderful pads they produce, and using it consecutively, your rotor will be gone sooner. like wad u advised me previously...even if i skimmed my rotors, the screeching sound will still come back...mintye tak ngam my daily usage lo...thats y tukar already brake pad... oh wait...i think i still have the mintye brake pads in my storeroom...

QUOTE(Nightstalker1993 @ Jun 30 2013, 03:41 AM) Not sure about Persona ones, but my Waja i changed to stock TRW discs from spare part shop RM150-160 if i remember correctly. Honestly saying, if new discs costs only RM80 more than skimming, I'd rather get new discs instead. And surprisingly as well, once the new discs beds in, the braking power is also higher when compared to the old disc. TRW rotor? hmm...then i might change the disc as well during my nex brake pad change...
