Changed all the brakes but i still get brake judder

<< < (3/3)

Range Rover Blues:
More llikely you have upset the rear sensors whilst you had the hubs off, also checxk the wheel bearings.  The front senors are insde the front swivels so not change of them getting mucky but very easy to disturb.

As for the juddering I suspect it's those front disks you didn't swap.  Cheap ones have rubbish cast iron in them which isn't homogenous, once you take the surface off it some spots are softer than others so even on a disk that has no run-out they can judder.

If you had sliding callipers I'd say the sliding bush in them, but you don't so it's the disks.

Is the pedal juddering or just the car?

Ja1983:
uneven tyre wear can also point you in the right direction, again wear and tear componants such as ball joints, shocks etc.. check callipers are securely fixed, i once had a loose calliper on a nova, felt like i`d lost a wheel! :lol:

JimsMowing:
Turns out it was the wheel bearings now quite tight enough. That took nearly all of the judder out. Whats left is brake peddle modulation and i think warn panhard bushes.

Still got a dodgy ABs sensor....

And still got no brake lights! Apart from that its all tickety boo!!  :?

Range Rover Blues:
Now you have done the bearings you need to clear the fault codes form ther ABS memeory and unfortunately disconnecting the battery doesn't do it.  Look at the article in the workshop about how to do a blink test.  Clear the memory and look for new faults being logged, if any.
