Calipers that are not operation correctly, dragging the brake pedal which then heats and could distort the discs, Slamming on the brakes. Any of the above are most likely why you have a variation in disc thickness

Your 2006 Honda CRV steering wheel vibrates when brakes are applied at a speed of 40 miles and above?
Rotors do not warp as many people think.Brake Torque Variation and Disc Thickness Variation are the cause of the issue. Brake Torque Variation (BTV) is a variation of torque across the face of the rotor causing the rotor to slip and catch as brake pads pinch the rotor. The differences in torque across the rotor may be caused by an inconsistent rotor finish or the metallurgy of the rotor.BTV can be caused by uneven deposits of friction material. This might not cause a pulsation in the pedal, but it will cause the vehicle to judder or vibrate. Disc Thickness Variation (DTV). This measurement is the result of measuring the thickness of the rotor surface at multiple spots around the rotor. Subtract the thickest part from the thinnest, and you will have a measurement for DTV. As the thickness variations of the rotor pass through the caliper, the piston moves in and out. This action generates pulsations in the brake pedal that can be felt by the driver. Very small amounts of DTV can create a significant problem. Today, new vehicles are typically built with a thickness variation of less than 0.00078". Thickness variations in excess of 15 microns (0.00059") can easily generate driver complaints. DTV specifications are significantly lower than runout specifications which typically are .002". This is due to the fact that a caliper can "float" or move back and fourth without forcing the piston back into the bore. So what causes BTV and DTV? The answer is not distortion caused by overheating. Heat does play a role as it increases wear on the rotor that causes a "warped" feeling.
What is developmental variation and environmental variation?
Environmental variation is a change that occurs in your, or anyone's, appearance caused by the environment. Examples are: skin color (like having a tan), a scar, the ability to play an instrument, ability to speak different languages, etc...

What can cause neck pain?
Neck pain can be caused from a variety of conditions. If you sleep in the wrong position, it may make your neck sore and stiff. A herniated disc may also be to blame for any pain in the back of the neck.
What width is to narrow for a worn brake disc?
There is a engraved number on the outer rim of the rotor. This will be where the rotor is the largest in diameter. It will be hard to read if the rotor is rusty. This number is the minimum recommended thickness. You may have to use a dial caliper to accurately measure the rotor.
What is another word or term for a bulging disk?
A more commonly used term for a bulging disc is a herniated disc. This ailment may also be referred to as a slipped disc, ruptured disc, or protruding disc.
What is Variation order in construction?
A variation order is a 'change' which the Architect may be issued to make to the drawings, such as putting in a new window. The Architect will then inform the builders of the variation.
Left lateral recess?
The left lateral recess refers to a condition whereby the narrowing reduces the available space within the exit doorway of the spinal canal. The left lateral recess may be caused by the arthritic overgrowth of the facet joints of the degeneration of the disc with the loss of the disc height.
