Just curious as to how hot other folks rotors get whilst driving?? I checked mine mine after getting home today, very minor braking on the way home and all 4 rotors were too hot to hold your finger on. Is this normal?
Rotors can reach a few hundredAmbient temps around 1 *C. After normal city driving and exactly 3 minutes rest time, front right rotor is at 54 *C, front left one is at 41 *C.
Rear left - 18 *C
Rear right - 24 *C
Any clues what temperatues are normal?
What are the maximum values which ae safe?
BOTH rotors are warping on you?Sorry to resurrect old thread but... I am on a 3rd set of front brake rotors and they are warped again!
Today I checked the brake rotors after some city driving. Rear rotors are completely cold.
Front left one is hot. Front right is even hotter, you can't hold the finger over half a second.
Question: has anyone ever measured the exact temperatures? What is considered normal and what's not?
Tomorrow I am going to do some actual measurements after mild driving.
Are the above numbers in C or F? Thanks, very useful information.
Some of the other links I read were in centigrade, but it looks like the link I posted was actually in Fahrenheit. Idiotic US can't join the metric system ugh.I think that link is to a US organization so I'm going to say that those temps are in Fahrenheit.
