Steering wheel vibrates when I brake

As above, when braking slowly doing 30-70mph or anywhere in between the steering wheel vibrates

Any ideas?

This could be warped discs, any good garage will be able to confirm this. Unfortunately it would require new discs and pads.

Did you by any chance have the discs and pads replaced about a thousand miles ago?

Most likely you have excess runout on one or both discs. You could have the discs skimmed but it needs to be done by a specialist. Find one using this link: http://www.skimmydiscs.co.uk/find-your-nearest-service-centre/ 2008 MY Java Black TDV8 HSE

Try Advanced Factors (one of the forum sponsors). They list a Borg & Beck kit of discs & pads (including bolts etc) for £109. It's easy enough to do yourself and should only take a couple of hours.

Since Andyjay123 has been looking for a video of a performance exhaust on a 3.0, I suspect those are the one type of brakes it's safe to assume he probably doesn't have. Wink

The sentiment still applies though. Thumbs Up Visiting from DISCO3.CO.UK
