[QUOTE="Mojo88, post: 15764507, member: 184279"] From my desk here, all I can do is make some educated guesses. So my 'guess' is that a contaminant of some sort got on the rotor surface, perhaps the rotor was improperly cleaned before installation, or maybe someone got a nice greasy fingerprint on it during installation. Then, over time, that spot changes the surface of the rotor so that it is no longer even. Another 'guess' is; maybe the caliper is hanging up - the guide pins often get dry and then the caliper doesn't fully release, then heat builds up, and well, the whole assembly (calipers, pads, rotors) needs to be replaced at that point. You should also check out the wheels, tires and front end components before replacing any parts. Bottom line: it's a relatively easy fix, once you get correct diagnosis. [/QUOTE]
