Having replaced the front discs not more than 1000km ago I found myself once again feeling the dreaded shudder when coming to a halt.
Turns out (thanks To Marty?s diagnosis) that it was a dragging left caliper, but there was also an indication that the disc might be warped, although it was hard to pick just spinning the wheel.
After Marty ?helpied? me service the calipers and properly bleed the brakes i think I might have dodged a bullet as the brakes seem good again, with no noticeable juddering coming to a halt.
Reality is I knew that Left caliper wasn?t 100%, and I knew for quite a while but never really put 2 and 2 together. It?s very likely it?s what caused the last set of disks to warp and given a little more time I?m sure these would have gone the same way. So the moral of the story is service those pesky calipers otherwise you?ll be spending a lot more replacing those bloody discs (and maybe the carriers). Thanks as always for the sage advice and assistance of our road captain extraordinaire!
