Hi All,



I've got the dreaded brake judder on my 14 plate E class. Symptoms are heavy vibration when braking from speed. I can feel the vibration in brake pedal and floor of car but nothing through steering wheel. Don't know if that's anything to do with electric steering that stops the sensation in steering wheel. Front brake and discs changed in February rears changed around 10 mths ago. Because no symptoms through steering I assumed the rears. Changed them yesterday made no difference. I'll strip down the front and possibly change them as a last resort. Reading on here though some people have had a hell of a time chasing this vibration down. Appreciate any tips

Thanks
