Need some advice please

Hi folk,

 

Was driving home today and the steering wheel started juddering, getting faster when i speed up. Lasted about 5min then went away. Also the brake pedal seemed to be soft and needed pumped when ever i stopped.

 

This is the 2nd time its happened but weeks apart. Any ideas?

 

Cheers Dillon :sad:

could be a sticking caliper and a warped disc. Do you know if your discs were hot etc?? could even be your brake flexi pipe has broken down inside and acting like a one way valve.

 

I might be wrong but it has happend to me a couple times in the past. same symptons etc

Cheers mate, I'll get it on the ramp tomorrow and have a look.

 

Just went out there for 5 min and its fine again. typical

just out of curiosity, if your steering wheel starts shaking. why did you speed up? lol

 

Check your bolts on the wheels while you are there, simple things first.
