Jim,
I find that the rotors on my 90 v8 w/ the UFO's tend to warp in stop & go
traffic. But after a high speed drive on the turnpike and steady firm braking
will make the warp dissapear. I think that its the fronts that warp &
"unwarp". Its a real PIA and I think the reason why Audi conducted a
semisecret recall to replace UFO's when the car first came out. Just out of
curiosity is the dealer replacing your front rotors under warranty?
