...like nothing else. The warp, and I replace them and the car drives fine, only to warp a month later, I dont even drive the car alot. Its not abuse warping them, and I know they are prone to warping, but not this bad,what else can be playing a roll in this? Thanks

I warped my rotors because my caliper slide pins were f'ed up. They were froze in place which didn't let the caliper move like it was supposed to. Beacuse of that my rotors eventually warped. Check for that, and see if that is your problem. Are you changing pads every time you change rotors? Hope that helps.

Actually, the first time I replaced them, the pins was froze, and we got a new caliper, its gone through 2 more sets since. I torque them to 100 with a click type wrench, calibrated. Also, there is a contant scraping noise at wheel rotation, someone suggested rotor dust shields, which not only wasnt a problem, mine seemed to be missing.
Thanks for replies,
