Brakes Pulsing, Again. At a Loss 900 1993

posted by  someone claiming to be another 960 owner on  Sun Nov 7 10:53 CST 2004 [RELATED]

I have/had a similar problem w/96 960. When I noticed the pulsating brakes was about 4k after new Brembo rotors and pads had been installed. The runout I found on the LF rotor was .013". I removed the rotor and cleaned up the surface of the hub and also the rotor ID. When I checked runout after reinstalling it was down to .001". I think the specs allow .003" but don't quote me. Less is better. The only thing I saw was the rust on the hub where it mates with the rotor ID seemed to cause the rotor to move over time causing the runout problem. Before I change my next set for pulsating brakes I'm doing a runout check. If I find the runout bad I'm going to clean up the rotor ID and hub mating surface diameter first and see what happens. Just my $.02.
