    Hi,

    My front brakes discs are a bit warped on my F355. It's noticeable when breaking from 100km/h and above. Below this speed, the vibration is quite negligible. So the discs must not be excessively warped. Furtheremore the discs are quite new.

    I therefore plan to get the front brakes discs rectified.

    Does anybody knows a good address where I can have this job done around Geneva?

    Thanks for your advise.

    Bye,
    Christophe.

    I found out two places in Geneva where we can have the brakes discs rectified.

    For those who are interested, here are the two adr :

    - Derendinger (Petit Lancy - Phone :+41 22 879 53 10)
    - Technomag (Vernier - Phone : +41 22 306 02 00)

    They charge 70.- to 75.- CHF per disc (for a 300mm diameter disc).


    In the meantime, I check the thickness of my discs (something that Ferrari haven't done before suggesting to resurface the discs!!!!!) and found-out that they are almost dead. At least too thin to have them rectified.

    Bye,
    Christophe

    Hello Christophe,
    thanks a lot for the infos and i have stored both addresses for any reason.
    I`m very sad and dissapointed, that you haven`t got any feedback from the Swiss gents her.
    Sadly the Swiss dudes are only part-time chatters.

    CU soon in Andermatt

    Ton,

    The Brembo one are listed at 243$ each on Tireack.com. That's the plain not drilled, not slotted one "Replacement Rotors".

    The Ferrari ones are ... I have to confirm the price of 700.- CHF I have been given.

    Wolfgand,

    You're right! The Swiss guy are less active on the forum than ... you! :D

    See both of you in Andermatt if I manage to change the discs in the meantime. :)

    Bye for now,
    Christophe.

    Ferrari confirmed me the price for the front discs : 840.- VAT incl for the pair. Plus one hour of labor to put them in place.
