Featured Article:
If you've been feeling a shimmy in the steering wheel when you apply the brakes and possibly the brake pedal pumping up and down, even slightly, you may have one or more warped brake rotors.
Disc brake rotors, the part the brake pad contacts when the brakes are applied, run very hot. If you've ever watched an under the car shot of the front wheels on a race car, you've seen the rotors turn red and glow.
When driving on the street you seldom get the "glow" but the rotors can become hot enough to warp, especially if you drive through puddles of water or snow after making multiple stops and starts.
Brake pads are in constant contact with the rotors. If the driver has a foot on the brake pedal all the time the brakes wear out prematurely and the rotors will run hotter.
Tow vehicles and driving in the mountains, or on crooked roads where the brakes are used a lot, can also contribute to warped rotors, especially if there if water, slush or snow on the road.
If you experience a slight pul upon braking that can be an indicator of warped rotors or brake calipers that need rebuilding. A spongy feeling brake pedal can be caused by excessively hot rotors, which in turn can boil the fluid in the brake calipers. In later cars there is generally an indicator light that will warn of low brake fluid levels.
Regular drum and disc brake type brake fluid collects moisture and can cause problems with the entire braking system if not changed at the recommended times in the owner's manual. Silicone brake fluid doesn't pose the moisture collection problem but it doesn't mix with regular brake and necessitates a complete purge and refill of the brake fluids.
Brake problems can be dangerous and any problem should be checked out by a competent mechanic who is qualified on that type of car's braking system.

A Common Brake Rotor Problem
There are rare times when the steering wheel vibrates as a Mercedes Benz slows down or comes to a a stop. This causes discomfort and anxiousness to the driver. Most Benz owners initially attribute this problem with faulty tire pressure. But what if the tire pressure is at a right level? Then the problem is a warped Mercedes Benz Brake Rotor.
Imagine the Mercedes Benz Brake Rotor as the white center part of an Oreo cookie. This disc brake rotor is what the brake pads grab to stop the car. The brake pads are like the two dark outer pieces of the same Oreo cookie, and the brake caliper holds the brake pads in one of the sides of the brake rotor. When the driver steps on the brake pedal inside the car, brake fluid is sent to the brake calipers causing hydraulic pressure to squeeze the brake rotor in between the brake pads.
What then causes the “warping” problem? Mercedes Brake Rotors usually become "warped" or have an uneven or high spot on the surface due to normal wear and tear. Warped Mercedes Benz Brake Rotors can also be caused by the expansion and contraction of a metal disc rotor while driving through a puddle of water and applying the brakes. Worn out brake pads due to metals grinding with each other in the Mercedes Benz Brake Rotor also induces uneven grooves in the rotor's surface. When the brakes are applied, the caliper and the brake pads squeeze the rotor causing the vehicle to stop. Since brake rotors are turning with the same velocity as the steering wheel, brake pads will throb inside the caliper as they touch the high spot with a a warped rotor surface. The pulsating will then cause the wheel to vibrate. This vibration can be felt in the steering wheel if the warped rotor is on the front of the car. Vibration is felt when braking on a freeway or when coming to a final stop.
Solution involves having the Mercedes Benz Brake Rotor removed from the car and "trued." In this process, a mechanic uses a special piece of equipment to shave off a small layer of the brake rotor to make the surface smooth, "true" or even again. The brake rotor have a limit to how much of the material can be removed or shaved off, and this minimum thickness is stamped on the rotor for the mechanic to see. If the rotor is below minimum thickness specifications, a replacement is needed.
Brake rotor warp can cause some damage or premature wear to the brake system. It can cause a safety issue due to loss of control and full stopping power at freeway speeds, and can adversely affect the anti-lock braking system (ABS). A mechanic should inspect the condition of the brake rotors when he inspects the brakes. A car owner experiencing a warped rotor should tell a mechanic immediately specifically about the existing problem. A visual inspection by the mechanic might not always determine if a brake rotor is warped and in need of truing. As the heart of a Mercedes braking system, the Mercedes Benz Brake Rotor should be maintained regularly to avoid tragic consequences.
