Title: strange wobble/judder
Post by: smith335 on June 18, 2006, 18:58:38

hope some one can help me ,
my td5 disco seems to have got a strange wobble/judder.
it happerns when braking from about 50mph down to about 30mph.
when you brake you feel a wobble/judder up threw the steering wheel,
but no judder threw the pedal.
i thought it may be the wheel balance, or may be the steering damper?

any ideas?

Possibly the front brake discs are warped.

(If the pedal vibrates it's usually the rear discs that are warped).

Have to agree

And.... http://www.mm-4x4.com/Shop/0130.htm
or

Both from http://www.mm-4x4.com/Shop/index.htm

At that price its worth changing them to see. Takes about 10 mins a side. but change pads as well!

at the cost involved you should replace the pads as well.
