Default Steering Wheel Wobble on Braking - 04-02-2007 , 09:35 AM






Hello,

I recently bought a '97 993 S with 100K miles on the clock.

Its just had new pads fitted and Ive only done about 250 miles on
them, but there is a growing wobble in the steering wheel when braking
at high speeds and even at low speeds with gengle braking there is a
warped sensation as if the discs are buckled.

What does anyone suggest? Are discs expensive.....?

Thanks

Simon

You better have the rotors inspected as well as whether the calipers
are working properly. Beyond that, inspect the tires for uneven wear
and whether they are balanced properly.

I can't imagine a qualified Porsche technician would have installed
the pads on damaged rotors though.
