Uneven or over tensioned wheel nuts can cause brake shudder.eff it, what do average well known mechanics charge labour to change and fit 2 front discs and brakes. Id rather it be done right then have a chance of warping it coz I was a tight . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was worried about the sound as it was getting worse so I had ford completly rip the things off and make sure all was OK in case the workshop who initially fitted them had put something on backwards or inside out. Got the car back today, and the only answer is new discs, these ones have done 200 klms and have not had a hard time in any way. Brembo discs might cost more but at least if they rattle they will get replaced instead of running all over the countryside only to find the product is faulty. Its the 3rd set of DBAs I've bought and I've never had the problem before, but it will be the last. I don't give a toss how well the discs work because I don't drive that fast but I can't stand the rattle and I won't intentionally buy anything from a company that would release such a crap product in the first place. When profit takes precedence over quality then as far as I'm concerned Edited 17/05/11 09:48 AM by hypnodoc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought that was a good deal. That price above is about right Edited 26/05/11 11:25 AM by Paulie2256 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
