Dillz Three pedals are better then two.. Donating Members 15,637 Member For: 17y 6m Gender: Male Location: Melbourne Posted 06/12/07 05:15 AM Share Posted 06/12/07 05:15 AM I just got mine fixed with DBA slotters and forodo pads, stopped the shudder but now when I go hard on the brakes there a sort of metal grinding feeling through the pedal. Is this just the brakes wearing in or what? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had my rear pads face sanded when I replaced the fronts with ferodo ds 2000 pads-awesome pad!!Hope this helps? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ford268 Member 140 Member For: 17y 10m 11d Posted 03/02/08 05:32 AM Share Posted 03/02/08 05:32 AM my car has a very bad shudder, especially at higher speeds and then slowing for traffic. I have changed to aftermarket rims, so is there any use in me going back to ford, or will they not cover it due to the rims. car is still under warranty. or how much is it to have the disks machined and such to fix the problem?

Got the discs machined today all good so far. Fingers crossedIt'll be back. I've had my XR6T since new and it's now done 135,000k's and when I take it for it's service, it will definitely need the discs machined......again.

Only way to get rid of it totally sounds like getting aftermarketrotors. Anyone know how much for DBA Slotted Rotors? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
