Slight front end shake

The front end on my 2002 X shakes when I apply the brakes. It is not a severe shake but is more noticeable when applying brakes from a faster speed. Any ideas?

Re: Slight front end shake

Your rotors may be warped. Probably needs to be taken down to the shop & turned.

Re: Slight front end shake

I have the same problem. Most of my driving is highway with a lot of stop and go mixed in (LA traffic). I assume it is related to brakes.

I'm interested in hearing feedback.

Re: Slight front end shake

I had exactly the same feel on my X and just had ceramic brakes put on about a week ago and man what a difference like brand new and not hardly any brake dust now. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif[/img]
