Pedal judder while braking


Recommended Posts

Hello

 

My Vitesse 6's brakepedal's judders when I'm braking. Disc alignement measured to be with in tolerance, rear drums checked by engaging the handbrake to be also fine. Vert link ball joints replaced.

The judder increases when speed decrases and is visible and audiable just before stop. At that point the whole front of the car is rocking. A bit like if the wheels where wobling.

 

Where do I start to determine the cause of this very unpleasant driving experince.

 

Regards, Flemming

With discs you need to check for thickness variations aswell as disc runout

 

stuck on resin

 

rust patches

It may be the rears giving a reaction to the fronts

rear drum rust build up on the brake surface

 

wheels distorting the drums , fouling on the retaining screws etc.

 

 

front hub brg end float

 

 

 

does the pedal movenup down on slow braking ?
