Under heavy braking - 70 > 30 - the pedal tends to judder under foot
Yet braking normally - 30 > 0 - there is nothing noticable
Its only started doing this since i took the front calipers off to copper slip the pads and re-bled the whole system.
Any ideas what it could be?
Thanks as always.
Marc.

Chances are its warped discs but I think heavy braking will make out of balance wheels vibrate when normally they wouldnt.
Fitted new discs this weekend and I still have a slight judder under heavy braking but will wait till i have new tyres fitted fefore checking anything else

check all the bolts are tightened up, if they are then it's normally warped discs. The way i checked mine was to get the car rolling at say 10mph then very light apply the brake, if it feels like it slows down intermittently then its warped discs

Thanks for replies, i will check everything over later, best not be warped discs That will be a brand new F1 and recently new discs down the drain
But would i not have had to do something to them in order for them to be warped?
