Cross Drilled Rotors and Metalic Race pads. S70 1998

posted by  someone claiming to be Robert Chase on  Wed Dec 19 15:39 CST 2001 [RELATED]

I am thinking of replacing my rotors and brake pads with Cross Drilled Rotors and Metalic pads. The dealer for my last visit mentioned that my rotors were warped and needed to be replaced. Of course they did this for the first visit out of warranty so I take their suggestions with a really big grain of salt. I understand the process in which rotors warp and quite honestly don't drive like most brake dragging automatic transmission types. Most of my driving is highway and I use a lot of engine braking in my driving style.

I have used full metalic brakes before on a couple of other cars and understand their shorcomings to a degree. Does anyone have any experience with full metalic's on the S70.... How might they interact with the ABS system.......??

Also... Anybody in the Atlanta area have any good mechanic's they use for service? The dealers all suck here....
