  1. My front rotor wobbles a few mm - just enough so that it either
    squeaks intermittently, or there's too much lever travel -
    depending on the pad clearance.

    I can see truing a really-taco-d rotor with a hammer and/or some
    educated bending... but this is much more subtle.

    Is there a technique?

    My kneejerk was application of sufficient heat, followed by
    sandwiching it between two dead-flat surfaces - probably also
    heated quite a bit, but I'd guess there is a loss-of-tempering
    issue lurking there.
