Description

Slapping on New Disc Brake Rotors — DBA Style
> Your Porsche 911's brake rotors are like the unsung heroes of stopping power. They team up with your brake pads to bring you to a halt. But, like anything, they wear out, especially if you're giving it heaps on the track or just dealing with tough conditions day to day.

Narked About These Symptoms?
• Brake pedal doing the Macarena (pulsating or vibrating)
• Brakes sounding like a rusty gate
• Taking longer to pull up than a cafe lunch
• Rotors looking like the surface of the moon (cracked or grooved)
• Brake pads wearing unevenly? That's a worry.

Will it pass WOF?
Dodgy brake rotors are a surefire way to fail a WOF here in New Zealand. They need to be within the minimum thickness and not cracked to bits to pass the test.

DIY or Hand it to the Pros?
Difficulty: 7/10
Estimated Time: 2-3 hours per axle
Gear You'll Need: Jack and stands (never get under a car supported only by a jack!), wheel wrench, socket set, torque wrench, brake cleaner, rotor puller (if you're lucky enough to have one)
