Help with Brakes
Hi,
I have an 06' Accord EX V6 Auto-Trans and have had to turn the front rotors at 30k miles. With another 5k miles on it, I am now getting grinding and pulsing, especially at high speeds. Do you have recommendations for brake pad replacement and do these models need to have the rotars replaced as well with an aftermarket brand?

Turning the front rotors @ 30k is fine. Sadly our brakes went out the 1st time at 30k. G7 accords basically have the crappiest brakes. 
I can't tell you the ideal fix but I know a few folks have used 6spd calipers & rotors to reduce Front brake problems.
Usually pulsating is signs of a warped pad or rotor. If your driving really fast and brake this is usually an issue w/ factory or cheap aftermarket pads. Still a issue may be there. I hope that helped.
