Can someone help?

I am new to this forum and I am also new to my 2000 3.2TL . I have been reading these forums looking for an answer to a problem I have but could not find one. O.K. I got lazy looking and wanted to find out the easy way if someone knows what my problem is! I bought my TL from a Benz dealership with 27,000 miles. Within a few days the brakes seemed to pulsate so I brought it back and they turned the rotors. Everything seemed fine. Now when I coast between 35 - 40 mph the car seems to pusate on it's own like the brakes are catching. Has anyone had a problem like this? I don't know if it is a brake or tranny problem. Thanks in advance.

If they turned the rotors that get them true for the time being. But that still means there is less material left to absorb the heat. This will end up warping the rotors even quicker. Either a new set or some high quality aftermarket replacements may be next to fix the problem.
