Disc Brake Rotor Replacement Guide — Featuring DBA Rotors
> Your Infiniti's disc brake rotors are super important. Over time, brake pads wear them down, especially in performance models like the FX and QX series. If your rotors are warped or worn, your braking won't be as good or as safe.
Spotting the Trouble: What Led You Here?
• Brake pedal feels like it's vibrating or pulsing
• Noisy brakes: squealing or grinding
• Taking longer to stop than usual
• Seeing scoring or damage on the rotor itself
• Brake pads wearing unevenly
Will it pass WOF?
Worn or damaged disc brake rotors are a common cause for WOF failure. Rotors must meet minimum thickness requirements and be free from cracks or excessive damage to pass inspection.
DIY or Workshop?
Difficulty: 6/10
Estimated Time: 2-3 hours per axle
Tools Required: Jack and stands, wheel wrench, socket set, torque wrench, brake cleaner, rotor removal tool (optional)
🛠️ Bob's "Get It Done Right" Companion Checklist
Alright, before you dive into swapping those rotors, let's sort out a few essentials to make sure you're not just getting the job done, but doing it *right*. Safety first, eh?
• Safety Glasses: No one wants a face full of brake dust. Grab a pair of safety glasses to keep your peepers happy.
• Nitrile Gloves: Keep your hands clean and protected from all the brake dust and grime. Trust me, you don't want that stuff soaking into your skin. Nitrile Gloves are your best mate here.
• Brake Cleaner: Brake dust is a pain. A good Brake Cleaner spray will blast it away, leaving you with a clean surface to work with. Makes the job heaps easier.
• Caliper Grease: Those pesky brake calipers can seize up over time, especially in tough conditions. Applying some Caliper Grease helps keep everything moving smoothly and prevents annoying squeals.

🧰 What Else You'll Need:
• Safety First: Never work under a vehicle supported only by a jack. Always secure it on heavy-duty safety jack stands.
• Brake Dust Protection: Keep a pack of Nitrile Gloves handy to protect your hands from grease and dust.
• Clean and Prep: Use Brake Cleaner to clean the anti-corrosion shipping oil off the new rotors before mounting the calipers.
• Lubrication: Apply caliper grease to caliper slide pins and pad contact points to prevent squealing.
