Swapping Out Your Disc Brake Rotors — Featuring TRW
> Disc brake rotors are the unsung heroes in your Peugeot Expert or Citroen Jumpy's braking setup. They take a hammering from friction and heat, so they wear down over time. Especially if you're hauling heavy loads, keeping them in good nick is crucial for safe stopping.
Spotting the Warning Signs
• Braking sounds like a bag of spanners?
• Feel a judder through the pedal when you hit the brakes?
• Taking longer to pull up than usual?
• Rotors look scored, rusty, or just plain sad?
• Brake pads wearing unevenly?
WOF Woes?
Worn rotors are a dead cert for a WOF failure here in NZ. They need to be above the minimum thickness and free from cracks to pass the test.
