What is the difference between resurfacing and replacing brake rotors?

• Resurfacing removes a thin layer to restore a smooth contact surface and can be cost-effective when rotors are within thickness specs and not deeply damaged.

• At Larry H. Miller Volkswagen Lakewood we evaluate rotors with precision tools and recommend the option that delivers the best long-term value and retains warranty coverage.
