I think one of my rotors may be warped. The last time I drove the car I smelled that wonderful hot asbestos smell. Well, when I got home (not far from where I smelled it) I could tell it was coming from the right front wheel. I think the rotor may be warped. Pulling the wheel and spinning the rotor shows it is tight in one area but the rest turns freely. Is there a way to check this? I don't have a dial gauge or anything.
From looking while turning it seems to be slightly warped. Can a rotor be turned off the car? Should I have them all checked before having one done? Thanks for any help.
I want a safe car so have not driven it since. But it keeps calling to me. ))
