First thought is that if you have a judder from the brakes you may have a warped front disc. The ABS system sensor may be picking this judder up and converting it to a fault.
A warped disc would spin and catch then spin and catch again rather like the rapid on/off braking that ABS does. This 'could' be the judder you feel and should be especially noticeable when braking and barely noticeable when driving with the brakes completely off.
warped disks spin the disk with tyre off and watch it against brake pads does it stick when you try to hand turn it it shuld wobble when you turn the disk
Yes, the rotors need to be turned, or replaced depending on if they are warped. The brakes may need to be changed, they may have grooves worn into them from the judder you feel.
Going by your description I think it could be something different, I would have the brake master cylinder checked, if you are suffering brake failure and shuddering it sounds like your callipers arent getting equal pressure when you apply the brakes. Or a freat lack of pressure to suffer brake failure. I hope this helps.
The disks may be warped, which will cause a vibration under braking. Also if it's an ABS system, the vibration is normal but only under heavy braking, and should not continue to vibrate when working properly.
yes it could be or you have a rotor that is out of round,may look good,but should be checked with a run out gauge, ABS should turn light on if there is a problem,if you need more help get back to me.Please rate my fix
yes sir, its the brake rotors, you have one or both front rotors are bad.. if you do the work yourself, it should cost you about $140, but if you take it to a shop you should pay about$300 to $400.. good luck...keith..
