I replaced the pads on my 6 today and now when im driving i get a really bad juddering occasionnaly. im going to replace the discs tomorrow as i did buy discs and pads all round bt got told discs were fine! is there anything else i can check whilst the car is in the air to try and figure out where this vibrations coming from? there was juddering whilst breaking befor i replaced the pads, but now its when im driving. (hope that makes sense)  Thanks. Dan |

Its likely that it will go with the discs imo. Sounds like they are warped.Although if its happening while driving is it just vibrations through the wheel etc? If so it could be a few things really: Driveshafts Wheel balancing Etc etc etc Try narrow it down a bit. Does it happen while coasting at certain speeds or all the time? ________________________________________ Ex- Phase 3 China GTi-6 T-Reg |

Noo i doubt it otherwise it would have done it with the old pads. You need to check everything you done, bolts on the calipers, pads, copper slip if the discs are fine why change them. Check the new pads for any uneaven wear________________________________________ cherry p1.....SOLD (regreting this)blaze p2.....why did i buy this SOLD Black p3  |

Have you knocked a wheel weight off when you removed the wheels to change the pads? Sounds to me like a wheel balancing problem.  ________________________________________ "Supercharged - 454.1bhp/317.5lb/ft"Peugeot 306 GTi-6 2000 (X), Moonstone |

no mate no weights knocked off. calliper just seems to be sticking so looks like a replacement.everything else looks to be fine, pad wear ok, nothings knocking or banging or loose..... got some new discs to go on but the guy from auto spares place has given me 265mm instead of 283 so cant even put them on now. this weekend has been one big mess up :@ |

Well, it sounds like you'll be after a new or recon caliper then.  ________________________________________ "Supercharged - 454.1bhp/317.5lb/ft"Peugeot 306 GTi-6 2000 (X), Moonstone |

Just seems weird you didn't have this problem before you changed the pads...Although I guess by pushing the pistons back to fit the new pads one has now got stuck.  ________________________________________ "Supercharged - 454.1bhp/317.5lb/ft"Peugeot 306 GTi-6 2000 (X), Moonstone |

Well managed to sort out the juddering!! It was where the caliper bolts to the carrier. The pin on the bottem of the carrier where the caliper bolts into was seized and wouldnt move in or out. so had to get it out and clean everything up. now it works a treat. couldnt believe we had missed it so many times but no more juddering now!! |

I got really excited when i found it out here after about 2 years of asking every car place i went in to. The guy at the counter looked well confused   ________________________________________ Love thy 6 |
