braking vibration... brakes or not?
ok well i was getting some bad vibrations after i changed my brake pads.... so i decided to get my rotors turned too... so after installing the newly machined rotors and driving it around.. it felt good, very smooth braking. Then, a couple weeks later i notice that the vibrations started coming back and now it's pretty much where it was again. HOW CAN THIS BE? I talked to the guy that helped me with my brakes and he said that it probably isn't the brakes, and i agreed because it seems unlikely that they would be warped again. He said it might be tie rods or wheel balance...
has anyone had any experiences like this? does anyone know what could be causing the problem? thanks.

well since it was smooth after the rotors were resurfaced id say you warped them again ... the break in time of new pads causes more heat inorder to seat the two surfaces together. did you measure your rotors before you resurfaced them? they might be to thin and not able to dissipate the heat properly. go get some new rotors
