Rear Rotor Not Being Fully Worn


Recommended Posts

My 95 SC400's rear brake rotors are not being worn at the full width. Only inner half of the circular rotor is being worn by the pad, leaving the rotor look very ugly and I feel weakness in braking as well.

Is this something to do with the caliper not working properly?

I was advised to clean the pistons.

I would appreciate any feedback.

Thanks.

Wheel could be over torqued. Pads could be broken or uneven. Caliper could need a rebuild. You might have a fluid leak or not enough to begin with. I'd recommend a good brake job. Or pull the piston and rebuild it. Your call. Your brakes. I would do something soon though if braking distance is being sacrificed.
