    Default VT S Pack vibrates when braking

    hey guys just brought a VT 99 S Pack, when you get to about 80 kms an hour and begin to brake the steering wheel shakes and the auto shifter shakes aswell.

    now when i brought the car i was told there was solinoide in the gearbox?. and i have a quote for 320$ fix, could that cause this problem?

    im not to good with this kinda stuff, any help would be awesome.

    Would Just need new Pads and New Discs.
    Because if one disc of warp it causes shudder. Its not so much noticed at lower speed.
    New Discs are cheap. $100-120 for a pair then $50 for pads. Easy enough to fit your self but if you are not real sure pay someone to fit them
    Plenty of how tos in the how to section on fitting them

    yeah from what other people say, machine discs is a cheaper way out, but safer to with new discs and pads.
