Hi all,
My wifes Boxster has a very bad vibration when braking at speed, I'm sure its there all of the time but under 30mph and normal braking, it is not so noticeable, anything fast and the car vibrates badly. You can feel it through the steering, brake pedal and bum.
The car drives perfectly, it can happily do 120 without vibration but as soon as you touch the brakes, the car feels unsafe and vibrates like crazy.
The brake discs and pads are brand new, literally brand new, they were fitted by a garage under the ownership of the previous owner, they're pagid pads with brembo discs. I have tried to do some high speed braking in order to bed them in, incase they weren't or if there was pad deposits on the discs but this had no positive outcome.
I can only think that a bush is worn somewhere or something now? I havent had a chance to poke around the front axle as yet, assuming its the front.
Any common issues with these cars and vibrations under braking?
