Replaced front pads on the bike a while a week or so ago, and am now getting a judder from the front offside under braking:( Now when the pads were changed the offside pistons were a tw@t to get free so I got a caliper repair kit and replaced the seals and smeared some of that paste that they supply into the piston bore and around the seals etc. Lovely....only thing is...I've now got this annoying judder/shudder. Now I did have to bleed 'em after some brake fluid was lost when one of the pistons popped out, but that went ok but I'm wondering if the pads got contaminated and is causing this. Done about 1k since so would have thought that would have burnt away by now?:nenau

Did a bit of research on here and decided to replace the disc bobbins and washers, didn't make any difference:(

Now I know I need new discs, bikes on 75k on an X plate, d'ya reckon that'll cure the judder? Disc's don't appear warped, no pulsing at low speed thru the lever. I saw other threads going on about where the disc is fastened to the wheel and filing off a raised shoulder or summat:nenau

Thanks for any advice.:bow
Cheers, Phil
