Default Severe brake judder on erst s2... ABS...??

As above, have put new discs an pads on me s2 but suffer from pretty severe brake judder when under pretty much all braking conditions... It's worse, the harder u slow down, usually from about 70mph... It's still fitted wiv the factory abs, is it a possibility this mite be causing it...??

Fanq in advance...

All it takes is for them to cook up then cool down rapidly for them to warp, did ya bed em in or just stick them on and use the car as normal

Well, I weren't usually it normally, was driving miss daisy wiv it for a while coz all the shocks were fucked so they never really got heated up...
Only got em from motor factors, dunno if they're that shit they'd jus warp after a few soft miles... It's very annoying tho...!!!

It's possible as there mass made, take em off and put them (gently) onto a bit of flat glass and see if they rock unless you have access to a dti gauge
