Manual or auto? I've done a few, and it always tends to be the autos that warp rotors.
I am a brake and clutch specialist here in Taupo, shall we just say they are good for business.
Lol :DQuote:

Getting them really hot then parking up is no good, the pads will insulate a section while the rest cool at a different rate.Quote:

Hilux breaks. No surprises there.
Never had dramas with the discs on my three, but there were all manuals & I'm not "All Gas & Brakes" :D
I had better be careful what I say though, I will be towing something for a change this weekend as well as carrying, she will be heavy, as well as up & down hills :)

My brakes on a 2013 are OK except they often make a hell of a squeal when reversing. Have read this was an issue fixed under warranty but not due for the next service for a while. Anyone tried getting them fixed for this noise under warranty?
Plus 1 except the drilled tend to crack between holes. I had drilled rotors on my old v8 and they cracked so replaced them with slotted onlyQuote:
