[V6-12v] ATE power disc pulsation when braking

[Calvyn]

Having them turned professionally 'should' eliminate the pulsing. Although I
would imagine that if those ATE discs are at the bottom of the groves you're
probably below spec for passing inspection on them. Maybe a new set of stock
rotors are in order. Congratz on the A6!

The ATE Powerdiscs on my '92 100S are at the wear point where I have reached
the "bottom" of the grooves machined into the rotor. This causes the car to
pulsate badly when braking. Are the rotors at their wear limits when this
occurs, or could I just have them turned? They only have about 17k on them,
and the OEM pads have ~1/2 of their life left. With the arrival of my '00 A6
4.2, this car will be for sale soon, and this pulsation will definitely be a
problem trying to sell it. TIA.
