Hey everyone

I was wondering if anyone has had issues with the replacement oem's from mazda ? After replacing mine they started to warp after pretty quickly and was wondering if anyone had issues with that ? If you didn't use the oem's from mazda which brand did you use ?

thanks,

I've had no trouble with mine.

Did you bed them properly?

I believe OEM replacements carry a replacement warranty. Check with the Dealership where you purchased.

Haven't had a problem yet.

I just had all 4 OEM rotors replaced like 1 month ago with HPS pads at Jimmy's, no issues at all.

Brake rotors do not "warp".

You likely didn't bed in your pads properly and now have uneven pad deposits on your rotor.

Don't forget that over-torqued wheels with air tools can also accelerate "warpage".

OP should search for and execute bedding procedures

thanks for all the replies.... Dealership said they can't do anything as I did not install it with them as per the bedding them properly i'm pretty sure that was done right as well since Jimmy did them. I am thinking its my shitty brake pads that came with the car (second hand) they sometimes glide on a rainy day going over a puddle or after I get out from the car wash. I guess i'll go with the HPS and replacement OEMs like most ppl here.

thanks,

I got about 120k on my front stock pads and over 140k on the rears. All I have swapped out were the front rotors/pads for replacement OEMs and haven't had any trouble like I sort of mentioned earlier. The feel is pretty much the same as the day I got the car. Consistent is what I am looking for.

BTW, Jimmy installed mine as well.

Search the forum for the bedding procedures and re-bed them again. I recall a couple of guys did this and it improved their situation. Don't give up just yet!
