my dads s2, standard discs and pads theyve hardly been used but the steering wheel judders like mad under breaking pointing to warped discs

is there anything else ie steering, brakes or suspension that could cause the wheel to shake ?

much apreciated...............matt

turbo stealth

if its not the brakes mate the only thing i could think of is worn bushes on the front end

Oranoco

Got the same prob on mine mate.

I think I just give the stoppers a bit too much stick

Knackered Steering Column Bushes would make it feel perhaps worse than it is, but if there is a wobble there, then it really needs to be found.

Mine used to judder like feck with EBC discs, but I don't have that problem now. So there's your answer, do a 330mm/4 Pot conversion.

just ordered some tarox discs and mintex pads for him

my old s2 used to judder too i know its a common prob but he has hardly used the car thats all

cheers guys................matt

Paul's got this prob mate - and can't solve it. It usually is the discs - even when not used much. The other main thing is TCA arms.

Matt - whats the diff between an S2 and sierra steering wheel boss? The wheel i got fits straight on, but has brought it forward and it feels stiff.

rick has the boss got a notch cut out at the 9pm position ?

Rick

not sure mate - at work so cant check. Is it possible to fit a saph one on the s2?

slowpoke

erm im not sure rick would just have to try it but i know the spare one i have is deffo s2

I'd say swap the disc's n pads out, u say u ordered sum, I had mintex pads, with Pagid disc's they were ok to start with, but I found that the mintex 1144's have a very hard compound and used to squeak like an arse! Took them off as they done my head in soo much.

i have black diamond discs and mintex pads, yeh the squeal is starting to get on my nerves now, i agree with you adam. what have you got now adam. ?

regards dave, ( deerhunter lost in crash)

I've got the same problem but i don't think it's the brakes.

Someone says to get the ball joints checked so that's what i'm doing as the brakes are still reasonably new

The Sludge

yeh i got same problem. My mate who works at a tyre place says bushes and tie arm are causing it

adamS2RST

Dave, well, I got my new rst and the brakes were fooked on it, I put my pagid discs off my old one onto it which stopped the judder I was getting and kept the standard pads in place as they have a fair bit of meat left on them. I think u will find the probs of squealing is the pads I kept taking mine out weekly to re copper grease them, it worked for a short time but this became a pain after a while so just took them out, they are like new tho and just put em on the bench for spares. Only kept the standard pads in for now as I am gunna upgrade to ST170 setup
