Rickster 5th Gear March 10, 2009 Share March 10, 2009 Having this problem with my ride that is less than 200KM mileage. While doing gentle braking when approaching a traffic light, can feel the steering wheel vibrate. This happens no matter what speed I travel at. From 60-100km/hr still the same thing. However, when i press the brake harder, the vibration will disappear immediately. Suspect it is warped brake rotors. Can anyone enlighten? Thx! ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Galantspeedz Turbocharged March 10, 2009 Share March 10, 2009 most likely. Try skimming your rotors but if too thin then changing the rotors may be better. Less than 200km mileage? If new car, bring back to AD Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allen 2nd Gear March 10, 2009 Share March 10, 2009 wa!! less than 200km got this kind of problem go back to AD, think the brakes pads are bed in improperly causing uneven contact point with the rotor. anyway let the AD handle, new car should not have this kind of problem Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kyojin 1st Gear March 10, 2009 Share March 10, 2009 bed in is your duty... anyway could be other factors including warp rotors caused by overtightening of wheel nuts etc. they change rims locally. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I din feel any engine vibration. But I felt steering vibration when gently braking. Engine vibrate i think juz a minor idling RPM tuning will solve it.

Using it for work as i run high mileage - need a small cc car that is FC friendly. The qashqai is an OPC. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
