Hi all had my sti on saturday and it had just had a mot and new front pad. Only done 60 miles since i had it and 30 of them were bringing it home with my 6 year old in the car. Have done no hard driving or breaking. On my way home from work tonight breaking from 70ish down the silp road and the steering wheel started to judder. I dont realy feel anthing through the break pedal. Feels like a warped disc but i dont see how it can be. Could it just be that the garage used crap pads( on the invoice for the service the were 23 quid) will putting better pads sort it. Thanks

Mine was the same when I brought it had a new set of pads on old disks which where nakered didn't feel it on normal driving but heavy braking would feel it badly through the steering wheel.
You may be luck and it just be cheap pads have left deposits on the disk you can whip the pads out give them and the disks a sand off and a clean up and you may be fine, that way you know it just crap build up.
But you maybe unlocks and they stuck a new set of pads in so it looks good when you go to buy it

It was break deposits. The disks look quite new no scoring, discolouration or lip at the top.i think it was cause by really light breaking on the bypass as i came up behind cars and had to slow a little bit. It was after that it started. Left for work at 5 this am and did a few 70-10 hard breaks with time inbetween to cool. Seems ok now. Maybe i didn't bed them in properly

You're probably making your car nervous saying 'breaking' all the time. They're brakes FFS!

playing devils advocate,
Pagid sell some via Euro car parts at that kind of price with their ever changing discount codes,
so depending on the OP`s driving style, you would expect a Pagid to be up to a reasonable job, not track action, but a daily driver shouldnt require £200 Ferrodos, imho.

The Pagid ones were recommended to me by my subaru mechanic as a very good pad at a sensible price , and a very grippy pad i have them on my Fsti and they are much better than red or yellow ebc , new pads will build up more material and dust until they bed in any way
