Re: recurring brake rotor problem...
Just to bring this back up from the dead...
I just overhauled my rear brakes. They were completely ineffective, so I think that more stress was being placed on my fronts. Probably not the only cause, but I'm sure it didn't help anything. One rear caliper was completely frozen (both piston and slider) while the other one just had a frozen slider. I got rear loaded calipers, installed new rotors, and bled out the entire system pretty well.
Unfortunately, the pulsating in the fronts is getting worse. At this point i'm pretty convinced it is in part the crappy unknown pads that are on there. I'm gonna order some new pads and rotors and see if that fixes it. If that doesn't help, my last course of action is new front calipers. Then there would literally be nothing else it could be.
