TLS to dealer for pulsating rotors.......

Took the TLS to the dealer today for the rotors pulsating, I mentioned the service bulletin and he said they know all about it and said "no charge" so we'll see if they replace or refinish the rotors and pads. Im still in warranty so I not sure if that makes a difference (02 TLS). Im also having the seat warmer replaced on the driver side back right as it gets way to hot on high, he said they would replace that but he might not have it in stock..we'll see....

well if they replace them...the new ones will warp in no time. They are a bad design to begin with. That is why most people replace them with an aftermarket brand

Torquing the wheels properly Makes all the difference on our cars too

Yeah I figure from what Ive heard here that they wont last too ling, but if I can get them fixed fro free at least once...why not! I figure next time when the warranty is out I'll get Brembo's or something...

If you use your brake above average, it will warp in 5k miles. That is how bad the OEM rotors are.

I had mine replaced at 37,000 miles and again at 47,000 miles, both times under warranty. At 52,000 now they're still okay, but I'm easy on them. My 2005 Accord V6 has warped its factory rotors, as well, and it has less than 10k miles. WTF is up with Honda and rotors?
