Brake Rotor Assembled Lateral RUNOUT: Notes

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2003 Pontiac Vibe. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

NOTE: Brake rotor thickness variation must be checked before checking for assembled Lateral Runout (LRO). Thickness variation exceeding the maximum acceptable level can cause brake pulsation. See BRAKE ROTOR THICKNESS VARIATION MEASUREMENT under DISC BRAKES.

NOTE: Brake rotor assembled Lateral Runout (LRO) exceeding the maximum allowable specification can cause thickness variation to develop in the brake rotor over time, usually between 3000-7000 mi (4828-11265 km). See MEASUREMENT .
