I recently installed new brake pads which I have done many time on my other cars but was first time on Buick. At high speed when braking it vibrates and this does not happen at speed below 40 mph. I did not change the roters eventhough they where slightly worn out and did not think that need to be changed. If it is the roters than I neee help from you in detail how can I do this and where I can get digrams of seeing how to do it. Also what advice you can give on either putting new rotors or have them taken to shop for reserfacing. All the help will be highly appricated. Thanks

Hi there,

I would be getting the rotors machined on car, many work shops an offer this service now and it is cheaper and quicker that removing the rotors, but they will have to make sure that they are still with in the safe thickness limits.
