treblet Posted March 12, 2012 Report Share Posted March 12, 2012 Sounds like warped disks.Are you very hard on your brakes? Warping is usually caused by very hot brakes being rapidly cooled... Usually by big puddles! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noonsy Posted March 12, 2012 Report Share Posted March 12, 2012 or could be problem with brake balance? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike_M Posted March 13, 2012 Report Share Posted March 13, 2012 Warped discs for sure. Do you keep your foot on the brakes when at lights a lot etc as this creates cool spots like a heat sink where the pas touch and warps discs the more you do it......but more so on solid onesAlways use the hand brake!
