What brand of rotors and pads did you use.
HI thanks for your reply,did bed the brakes in both times and were fine for several weeks then the shudder on steering when braking started again,I know if I replace them again it will be fine for a while!! people seem to think it mey be tie rods etc but cant be anything else but the brakes cos its fine when I replace the front rotors,it seems to be the left hand rotor because I replaced this one first and the problem went,pistons on the calipa seem to work but dont no what there like under load.many thanks John
