Note: On Rotors

Post by SloWhite »

I want to install new pads and rotors on my 2004 SLE. On the Auto Zone web site, under the rotors section, it says "NOTE:May have non-reusable spindle nut. May require replacing when servicing rotor."

Can you tell me what this means. :feedback:

On some vehicles, you have to remove the spindle nut before removing the rotors. That's not the case on your car, and the warning does not apply.
