Doolz Member 55 Member For: 17y 6m 14d Gender: Male Location: Sydney Posted 17/12/07 09:57 PM Share Posted 17/12/07 09:57 PM Hey Forum I have noticed that when braking at a speed of more than approx 80km/h, the steering wheel shutters. The faster you go, the more it shutters. I have already put this in as a warranty issue a few months ago (3 times). It was fixed until yesterday afternoon and this morning. It has started doing it again. I have a 2005 MkII xr6t, 6 speed manual. What can I do about this problem? Has anyone else had issues like this? I am getting sick of this bu11sh*t with the brakes on Ford cars. Any help or advise would be greatly appreciated.

Now its really pissing me off. I now know what everyone was winging about.Still I only work a two minute walk from Metro Ford, might whinge to them. Nah that would be a waste of time.Scotty Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/40673-standard-brakes-issues-again-some-advice/#findComment-610235 Share on other sites More sharing options...
