cured the front end wobble.

[Dayvo]

A while ago i had a bad shake in the front end that i was at a loss as to what it was . It usually happened over 80 kays when i hit the brakes . When i checked the disc runout with a dial indicator it was within specs. Well on the weekend i checked it again and was within specs ,but when i put all five wheel nuts on and tightened them up ,checked it again i got a different reading . Also if i took the disc off and moved it to the next wheel stud i got yet another reading .I spent about an hour playing around with both discs and now they are vibration free .

Dayvo, are the rotors originals?

No mate , I put new ones on about a month and a half ago . The old ones were too far gone to machine .

I had a set of tyres fitted a few years ago and had brake shudder after i picked it up from bridgestone.
Had me buggered for a couple of days as it was aok before....then it clicked....tyre place = rattle guns= brake shudder.
Undid all nuts and retorqued to specs.....good as gold.
I now torque the wheel nuts all the time if disturbed.

VT and VX have a tendency to create runout in the rotors if the wheel nuts are not torqued correctly and done in the correct star pattern sequence.

Good to see you fixed it.

what's the torque spec for the VT?

[Not_An_Abba_Fan]

100-125 Nm.
