Suggestion
If you were using Pagid Orange pads, for example, they can put deposits on the rotor that can make it feel as if it has warped.
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Well
I thought these 996 brakes were suppost to be strong, but it is the second time the my brake discs are bent.
Last track day at the Track, I was totally anoyed, since there was so much shaking during hard braking.
Question is. Is there anything that should be done to avoid bented discs. Does racing pads contributes to disc problems.
Best Wishes

There has been much discussion on this topic in other forums, you might search on warped rotors. If you were using Pagid Orange pads, for example, they can put deposits on the rotor that can make it feel as if it has warped. I believe a contributing factor is not bedding the pads per the manufacturers recommendation (I've used them for years, bedding them as recommended, and have not had that issue). Some use Hawk Blue's to clean the rotor off.
Nice piece of info there.
Is there anything else that can help me out to take out the deposits?
I cannot understand why some serious companies do not know about that.
Maybe, they want to make a profit and tell everyone that the discs should be replaced...

As mentioned above, proper bedding of the new pads is essential. The disc does not warp, but hot spots remove microscopic material from the pads and it becomes bonded to the disc. Never sit with the brakes applied after extreme use of the brakes. Put the car in neutral and foot off the brake. I occasionally will ride my brakes for a quarter mile or so in an attempt to keep them clean. I have no vibration or other braking problems after 44,000 miles on the orginal parts.
