Chid 6,676 Posted August 25, 2009 Report Share Posted August 25, 2009 if its only doing it while you brake it will probably be a brake problem ,,,, sounds like warped discs to me. but in your post your dont say where the judder feels like its coming from.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mwncidur 0 Posted August 25, 2009 Report Share Posted August 25, 2009 Think you need to describe the symtoms a bit more. Is is a steering vibration or the whole vehicle? Could be a buggered prop UJ or track rod end, loose wheel bearing any number of issues. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
hily 380 Posted August 26, 2009 Report Share Posted August 26, 2009 for safety jack it up and check for play if discs apply light pressure to brake pedal when slowing down if pedal moves up and down under your foot check out discs Quote Link to post Share on other sites

JDFrain 1 Posted August 26, 2009 Report Share Posted August 26, 2009 check the UJs on the propshafts, if its a little bit clunky when changing gear also this is a sign they are wearing. JDF Quote Link to post Share on other sites
yoggerman 5 Posted August 27, 2009 Report Share Posted August 27, 2009 if its fitted with abs and the light sometimes comes on, and sometimes when you brake the peddle falls down and then shudders........ it needs bleeding the braking system.... but like some one else said a arped disc can make it feel funny aswell Quote Link to post Share on other sites
