Brakes

Post by Barney49 » Thu Jan 09, 2020 6:08 am

Hello, after some advice please. I’ve owned my car for 5 years and experienced similar problems through the 80k miles, I’ve recorded always attributed to one or more warped discs. I have a pulsing at the brake lever that feels to me like warped discs but at last service (less than 3k ago)the car had complete set of new discs and pads. I think this should suggest the issue is elsewhere in the system, any suggestions?

I have the same issue thought it’s not bad, only noticeable high speed and mid to hard hit on brakes (car is 2015 x3 2.0d). I’ve not had the brakes changed as at the last service the dealer said they were fine. Different dealer to where I purchased the car so no cover up of selling me a vehicle with brake issue.
Not sure what to think now.

I had the same issue on mine, changed the arm and ball joint on both sides, problem solved.
Cost of parts was £100. It took about 3 hours but worth it.
