Had the track car out at Brands yesterday and had an issue with the brakes. When cold the brakes were fine, obviously only using gentle pressure to bring them up to temperature. When hot though there was an issue with the steering wheel wobbling.

On light and medium brake pressure the steering wheel would wobble horrendously however when on full or hard braking they were absolutely fine.

Initially thought it might have been the ABS going berserk but that didn't really explain why it went away on full braking.

When using the old brake set we had a similar issue that we put down to the discs being warped. Unlikely that both sets of discs are warped though?

Lose balljoint causing the wobbling? It's an unusual issue especially since we've had a similar problem with both sets of brakes.

Drive flange being something to do with the hub? Not sure what you mean

oh and you'll need wheel bearings, found my local factors very competitively priced for bits like this, especially if you get trade.

More than likely is warped discs to be honest. If it was the hub it would be all the time. Discs don't just get warped by not being bedded in correctly thy also get warped by over heating, seized callipers or stuck pads, sitting with your foot on the brake once they are warm also creates hot spots and warps them. If you bought them second hand then their probably f**ked.

The gti brakes I have on my hdi do the same thing it's only once they are warm and you brake lightly at speed e.g approaching a roundabout on a duel carriageway that the steering wheel wobbles due to slightly warped discs.


It's a very common issue on a lot of Citroens we get in at work with older callipers. Also having worked for Mitsubishi for 7 years they suffer it majorly. I've skimmed hundreds of front discs in that time either due to steering judder when braking or brake pedal judder.

Depends how warped they are. If very then the brake pedal pulsates like crazy when braking hard. Personally I'd take the discs off and wet and dry everything on the hub so your 100%sure it's clean smooth and rust free. See what it's like.
