New Pads/Rotors, Still vibrating
Question for all the techs out there. I replaced the OEM pads and front rotors with the Endless pads and ACP Rotors because I was getting a SLIGHT vibration from the brake pedal and steering wheel. When I put the new parts in there is now a significant amount of vibrating from the steering wheel and brake pedal. Any ideas what would be causing this?Could it be the calipers?I thought usually when they go bad they usually lock up. I have not gotten an alignment. The steering wheel doesn't vibrate when driving just when braking, which lead me to believe it would be the rotors. Could I have warped rotors from ACP? BTW: I had the OEM rotors turned once because of the significant vibrations, afterwards it was only a slight vibration. Any suggestions anyone?

Have you bedded and broken in the rotors and brake pads? When you first install them, they vibrate violently but after bedding and breaking in, they start to feel better.

I also wonder if this is normal. When I break hard, my break pedal vibrates that feels like doing some quick pumping action. But, my steering wheel feels nothing.
