:( need to machine rotors

Sigh, learned a new lesson.

I brought my car to the dealership today for regular maint. According to them, my rotors are rusted on edge (I concur) and need to be machined..

This was caused by putting too little km on it !! :\ so far for saving kms on my rolla..

We had the same problem with the rear rotors on our mercedes. They just said to use the brakes more and the rust would be eaten off :P
