Sorry I've put this in the wrong place and can't find tec threads
Break judder 1999 V C230k Sport
my car suddenly developed a break judder on the offside, I adjusted the offside wheel bearing a number of times. But this did not cure the problem. So I assumed that the discs were warped. I fitted new Unipart front discs and pads. I again adjusted the wheel bearing as described in the MB forums. the judder improved slightly for a while, but now it is back to bang, bang, bang. When I applied the brakes, the sound seems to be coming from the offside about one third from the front of the car. I have recently had an independent garages Mercedes trained mechanic do a laser 4 wheel alignment, the rear wishbone bushes had some wear, but not excessive.
I'm hoping someone else has had the same problem, and look forward to your reply.
Thanking you in anticipation.
