Re: Warped rotor
It is not dangerous unless the shaking is really violent. These are easy to change and you can probably do the job yourself and save a bunch of money. Simply jack the car up and support it with a jack stand or blocks. Remove the wheel and then remove the caliper by taking out the mounting bolts. Remove it from the rotor and then pull the rotor off. Clean the new one with brake cleaner and then install new pads. To do this, if open the bleeder screw on the back of the caliper and then push the piston back. Install new pads and reinstall the caliper and the bolts. You will need to bleed the brakes by pushing on the brake pedal and opening the bleeder screw until you get a good stream of clean brake fluid. Make sure you don't empty the master cylinder. Reinstall the wheel, lower the car and you are ready to do the other side. Of course if you don't have a garage and it is cold outside have someone else do it for you. Good Luck!
