I got my '14 with 38,000km on the odometer. By the time I got it home (~300km drive), I had noticed brake pedal pulsing, a typical indicator of warped rotors. The pads were wearing down too, so this summer I replaced both pads and rotors front and back. Power Stop drilled & slotted rotors, Tundra TRD pads. Broke-in the pads as per included instructions.
All was well and brake pulsing went away, but now, roughly 5000-7000km after replacing the brakes, I think the rotors are warped again as the brake pulsing sensation is back. The pulsing is not constant - seems to vary depending on speed and level of brake application, but it's there. Is anyone else experiencing the same thing? Getting the rotors turned every 5000km is not an option.
I live in a hilly area with cold winters. I'd imagine getting the rotors hot (braking) and then cooling down quickly (snow, washing the car, etc.) is not helping. Any tips for avoiding rotor warp? Or other potential culprits?
