In reality, the majority of brake discs which are diagnosed as "warped" are actually simply the product of uneven transfer of pad material...Uneven pad transfer will often lead to a thickness variation of the disc. When the thicker section of the disc passes between the pads, the pads will move apart and the brake pedal will raise slightly; this is pedal pulsation. The thickness variation can be felt by the driver when it is approximately 0.17 mm or greater (on automobile discs)....This type of thickness variation has many causes, but there are three primary mechanisms which......"
