Brake wobble

Over 50 when I brake I get a wobble through the steering wheel, I would presume warped front discs?? Is there an easy way to know.

If so would you recommend getting from Advanced factors and if so which discs / pads are best, I see they do kits, Borg & Beck, TRW and Brembo?

Thanks in advance

I doubt the disc would warp that easily, get the alignment checked.

its not warped - its disk thicknes variation - One thing to try is find an empty road and brake hard 3 or 4 times, as some have found this "cleans" the discs of any deposits and cures the "steering wobble". Otherwise its new discs and pads.

LR OEM discs on the 3Ltr D4 are Brembo.

Easy enough to check the discs with a dial gauge.
If new needed well worth doing the v8 upgrade as you will only need new carriers on top of the new discs and pads.

Thanks guys, I'll try the hard braking option 1st to see. Fingers crossed...but I think a new set of discs/ pads are coming my way.
