your tiers may have gone out of shape try swapping the back with the front ones |

Simple1 - the wobble/vibration isn't there at low speeds but I don't get anything through the peddle even at high speeds

Dial test indicator. Measures deformity in discs. It's not going to be steering rack or mountings, would do it all the time, hence asking about speed and pedal bounce. No bounce rules out discs, so as you have replaced bushes and ball joints you need to start looking at drive items. If you haven't replaced the arm bushes start there first as moving arms will cause the geometry to change when loaded under braking 2x TDV6. SE and HSE. Both returned to sender with issues👀

Thanks simple1 these bushes you talk about are these the ones in the lower and upper front arms the ones which the ball hints are fixed to? Thanks again |

Yes, they mount the arms to chassis 2x TDV6. SE and HSE. Both returned to sender with issues👀

Easy way to check these is to get someone to sit in car with foot brake applied and try and pull away while watching wheels. If they move back in arch bushes are shagged. In extreme cases, wheels will have back and forth play (front to back) while jacked up 2x TDV6. SE and HSE. Both returned to sender with issues👀

If you have checked run out on the discs as Simple1 has said and it's within tolerances then I would be looking at the calipers. The other thing it could be is brake transfer but if you have put on new discs and bedded them in it is unlikely.
