Morning fellow KJer's :D

So when I drive I get no vibes, not shakes nothing. At the moment (other than the other post's error codes etc) it's running well. However when I put the foot on the break the steering wheel get's a shake going, this would be at about 60 to 80K's with medium pressure on the break. When I get down to about 10k or so I can feel .. what seem's like the the break gripping then not... then gripping then not... till I come to a stop. That's with little pressure on the foot break. I was thinking it could be a warped disk?

A rotor and disc are the same right?

I was thinking you can't spell brake. Between you and cmohr I shudder for the future of the printing industry!! :wink: :lol:

But yes, it does sound like a warped disc.

It's a reflex of all those called Chris... I'm told it gets better with age :D


Warped disc / rotor, so is that a job for the man what machines discs or am I looking at a new disc?

I believe you'd be looking at new ones mate, I guess it depends on how far out, but i wouldn't risk it.

OK, time to call Fros and see where he get's the rotors then and what's best to put on.

(Fros, I will call you later in the day... I need to do some work :roll: )
