I change rotor every 100,000 miles. The fact is rotors wears out and get
thinner,,, which will lead rotor warp. Even if your rotor is not warped, you
can see that flange on the outer circle where brake pad doesn't contact.
That's how much wear there is... and that little bit is alot in terms of
brake rotor thickness.
By changing out the rotors, you will bring the braking perfromance back to
100%. Rotors are cheap enough to replace at 100,000 miles.
Dealer change them out because it is cheaper for them laborwise... a
customer come back with complaint about squealing, brake vibration or
warping will cost them money to diagnose and then it will upset the customer
that they have to do the job twice along with $$$. So by eliminating that,
they save money and time for other customers' cars.
Water pump gonna have to be replaced... leaking pump is sign of bad pump.
Differential seal depends on where it is leaking can be a bigger job.
