and true... but those who know how to replace brake pads should know how to replace the rotors... for those who don't,
So do you replace your pads/rotors yourself?

Point being is when you add up the labor and resurfacing etc. You'll probably make out better in the long run unless you giving me the rotors for free which you aren't.

the honda tech manual says that you don't need to adjust your valves until 100k+ miles.

i'm at 86k and found several that were out of spec this weekend.

i'm gonna start doing them every 20-30k miles or so. maybe once a year...
