agree with aaron. need to skim rotors. ask your workshop about it.

I had the same problem before.

 

End up its disc warped.

 

Changed the disc + brake pads (since brake pads also due to change at that time), cost me abt $380.

Rotor skimming not advised unless u using ex bkk rotors.

 

Otherwise, more cost effective to replace with new ones.

 

Rotor change, brake pad also must change.

Hey bros,,

 

Sorry to use this topic.. Is $650 for engine mounting replacement worth it? And labour charge of 120.

 

I felt I was overcharged.. Please advice.. Thanks

 

P.S. Vehicle Model : 2006 Toyota Estima

More likely the wheels are out of alignment, although there can be other causes, too. Can cost you $40/- to $60/- to have all wheels alignement done.

why do you say that it is an alignment problem? pardon me for being a novice, thought alignment problem is when you are pulling to the side...i'm not pulling to the side just vibrating at the steering wheel

Thats what happened to my Suzuki after being hit by a lorry and got algnment problems (both chassis and wheels). Hitting the kerb can misalign wheels, too.
