I find that my car brake is not very sensitive. My car workshop advise me to change the brake pad and also to skim the rotors. I was told that the time to change the brake pad will be when the brake give out a hissing sound when you pressed on the brake. This is because there is a inbuilt strip within the brake pad which will make a hissing sound when it had been worn down to a certain thickness. Otherwise, it is not necessary to change. Is this true? Some people also claimed that we should never skim the rotors. May i know the reason why? My workshop claim that by skimming the rotors, it make the rotors more even, resulting in better grip when the brake pad pressed on the rotors. Is this true?

Hi, Need some expert views on the above. Lately when I brake during highway speed ie 100km/h or higher, I find that my steering vibrate. Was told that my brake disc is warpped, need to replace. however, some other workshop advise that skimming will solve the problem. I'm driving an 03 Picnic. normal driving, no cheonging but I'm driving up to Genting this December. Can anyone advise whether i should just change the disc instead ? it's uite costly i think. Thanks
