Common knowledge of Benz rotors is that they do not turn. Get fresh rotors and have the brake system checked out. The rotor is not supposed to warp, so there is some other cause of the issue. Other list folks are far more versed on this. clay 1974 450sl - Frosch - Two tone green 1986 SDL

I actually found the wear gauge on an MB rotor just a year or so ago. Never knew they had them. If you haven’t seen one it’s just a little crescent shaped cutout on the edge of the rotor wear surface. -D > On Feb 14, 2018, at 2:25 PM, Kaleb C. Striplin via Mercedes >

You don’t turn MB rotors. As you discovered it’s a waste of money. You just need to replace the rotors. Sent from my iPhone > On Feb 14, 2018, at 1:22 PM, Ralph,'84TD via Mercedes > wrote: > > My car recently starting a pulsing in the brake pedals. Had a garage look

My car recently starting a pulsing in the brake pedal.  Had a garage look at it and they recommended a rotor turning to remove high spots.  This worked fine for awhile, but the pulsing is now back again.  Should I have the rotors replaced or could it be  something else. Thanks Ralph '87 300 SDL
