Title: Brake noise after delivery
Post by: reecho on June 30, 2009, 03:00:39: I picked up my car a couple of weeks ago now and from minute one a had a nasty rumble/thump under braking from what I could tell was coming from the LHF wheel.

Turns out because the car was sitting for a while the brake rotors had a large build up of rust on the surface which caused high spots on the rotors themselves.

On it's 1000km "glance over" they machined all the rotors smooth and....well.....i's lust all over again....so much nicer to drive... :P

Apart from that, and the fact i got duped on a tank of diesel...i am very happy... :)

To top it off, the second fill has been getting a fair bit better MPG....noice..!!

I would have been pulling back in (if that happened to me) :rolleyes:

Although I only got half a tank in my I30 (after buying 2 new cars from the same dealer within three weeks of each other) When I complained I got fobbed off... :mad:
