C220 CDI
Hi there. New member to MB Club with 54plate C220 CDI estate. I bought this car before the summer to replace my trusty old 190D which had no air con. The trip to Sicily and a round trip of 5K miles dictated an air-con !
Anyways before the road trip, I had new discs and pads fitted all round by a local Porsche independant. Halfway through the trip, the car started to develop brake judder, getting progressivly worse. In sicily, I ended up having the new discs machined to get rid of the "supposed" warp and new pads. This seemed to fix the problem, untill I started back home. Again, somewhere in France the juddering reappeared and got progressively worse. I got home and the Porsche Independant replaced both front discs and pads under guarantee. That was 2 weeks ago. Now the juddering has started to come back and is in its early stages again on the new discs & pads. Before I go back to the Porsche specialist, should I be looking at something else ? Any suggestions welcomed. Am at a loss !! Thanks !!:crazy:
 
The hubs are warped because they didn't clean them up properly when they fitted them.
 
HI There. Thanks for the quick reply... When you say "hubs are warped", you mean the discs are warped ? and the hubs needed cleaning properly before fitting the discs ?
