brakes shuddering

[Fu Manchu]

loose wheel bearings?
Warped disc?
Wheel alignment?
Wheel Ballance?
tighten calliperbolts (all)?

yer thats either alignment, ur discs might be warped, or ur brakes are just screwd

had the same problem with my brakes
got the brakes done and was told the disc were under sized so i told themto put new rotors on drove to sydney come home and then aftertwo weeks shuddering again so i too them back to a friend and he said cheap rotors and good brake pads dont mix as the pads can stand up to hot temops but the discs warps after they get to hot then cold to quik so we machined them and no more shuddering

next time me go for slotted discs good ones i think

Yep i'd say your disc are warped and could do with a machine, if you have just replaced the front then get the back machined first or vica versa.

Poor technique while bedding in new or newly machined pads or discs will cause shudder, particularly if the car is stopped and the brakes left clamped on with the pads hot = spot transfer of pad material to the disc.

Ive had allsorts of problems with brake disks shuddering. I tried machining and replacing with genuine disks. Nothing helped, they had hot spots again after a few weeks.

I went and got a set of DBA disks, they are a much better material, havent had a problem since.

I'm surprised no one has thought about checking the front end bushes. Front suspension and steering bushes
