Vibration under braking (NOT Discs though)
Hi There
I have intermittent Vibration/wobble through the steering wheel under braking sometime light sometimes heavy to the extent you feel it through the seat.
It is very intermittent but does seem more often if sudden braking straight from hard acceleration !
However emergency stops from normal cruising at any speeds shows no vibrations
The discs have be checked and are not warped (so I am told) leaves me at a loss of what it could be.
Any help appreciated

Hi Thanks for all the comments
Wheel have been swapped front to rears and the issue stills occurs,
The Pads where an expensive make cant remember which make as they were fitted by Power station when they existed along with new discs. will have to find receipt and see. ( the new Disc and pads haven't done 1500 miles )
It is going in a garage next week to have the front bushes, drop links etc checked.
Could worn front shockers cause this ? as the rears have been replace but not the fronts and they look quiet rusty (original sti red front struts) and the car is now 93000 miles.
Regards Ian
