I get a o/s/f wheel wobble going around a left hand bend, and the brakes judder at motorway speeds, the discs look ok other than a large lip on the edge.

I assumed it maybe pad material transfer so I did a few 71 mph brake tests.... but if anything, the brakes wobbled even more.

I haven't checked for any wheel bearing wobble yet as I'm at work. Suspension arm and spring have been changed over the last 12 months.

Any ideas ?

had similar on the beemer in my case it was worn bushes and the disc needed skimming

Of course it could be anything, do you have a decent wheel place that does skimmimg and can take a look at the bushes?

Got the "brake judder" which I'm trying to resolve - I don't think its anything to do with the brake discs and it doesn't seem to do it all the time - its something else like bushes.

I had sporadic judder which was the bushes but the brakes then needed a skim as the juddering had a knock on
