![]() The 2015+ rotor had a starting thickness of 30mm. And I even had these turned once 8 months ago! The 2014 and older rotor I took off had a total thickness (when I took it off) of 29.3mm. The rotor has all the same thicknesses as the previous stock rotor? I should've taken pictures when I measured it, but you're just going to have to take my word on it. I did some measurements with my digital caliper and found out something interesting. I just put on the 2015+ new design rotors last week. The guys who installed the front pads either obviously didn't follow this, or if they did, then Car Quest pads really are "the devil" (like the "foosball" in The Waterboy). ![]() Nissan actually has a "brake burnishing" procedure in the FSM which is nearly identical to the brake bedding procedure championed by Stop-Tech and Centric. ![]() I'm going to see if they can be resurfaced, as lightly as possible, then install OEM pads. The previous owner replaced the OEM pads with Car Quest front pads (it's still on OEM rears with 124,000+ miles on the odometer). Under hard braking, it's downright scary. My Altima, on the other hand.I've never seen such shaking under medium braking. OEM equipment brakes really well and last a long time when this is done, and that goes for any vehicle where I've done this (Dodge truck, Honda vans & cars). Our Odysseys are on their way to another 100,000+ miles on a single set of OEM pads with original from-the-production-line OEM rotors.but we bed new brakes, or new brake pads into sanded rotors, always. ![]()
