What a day, firstly kerbed the front near side wheel going very slowly what a fool. then shortly after that developed a very odd brake judder, the brake are fine until you get to below 20 mph then there is a scraping noice and a judder coming directly through the steering wheel and foot pedal. I have done a visual on the brakes but cant see anything that looks out of place, the pads have about 5mm on them so I think all are ok, anybody got any ideas please ?

I thought it could have been something to do with the wheel kerbing but was only doing 2-3 mph when I hit the kerb so very much doubt it is that. can anyone help please ? not having a great day going out now to drink my problems away

Have a good night all I will

So the judder started after hitting the kerb? Maybe you bent a steering arm/track rod end or maybe the wheel is slightly buckled.

Think I have found the problem, having taken the wheels off to get a better look I have found that there is no pad lef to on the rear of the disk. Can anyone tell me the best pads to buy and where from ?

Mine does exactly the same and I've assumed that a pad somewhere has died.
