F10-Low shudder on braking

[Nastaliq]

Howsit guys,
Now before I go and take the car into BMW to have someone just replace parts for nothing, thought I would ask here.

I have a F10 with 5000km on clock. Car is stock.

In the past 2 days, I have picked up a judder/shudder/rumble when braking at very low speed. Lets say I am in traffic and speed up to 30km/h and then have to break to a stop, just before the car is completely halted with max pressure on the pedal required to do so, the car will shudder/judder.

I have not had any pothole damage, all the wheel weights appear to be in place and I do not notice any colour spotting on the rotors that could indicate uneven pad material transfer.

Just in case I redid the bed in procedure this morning, which has not fixed the issue. With rotor warping being extremely rare, it is very unlikely.

What else could this be?
It is not intermittent, and occurs when car is warmed up or cold start, on an incline or a decline when going from 140 to full stop or 30 to full stop makes no difference.
Any ideas

is the judder on the car, pedal, steering?

Shudder is on the pedal. not steering, latent shudder on the steering from the car vibrating when coming to full stop.
when it happens, you feel it on the pedal.

Sounds like it might be the disks...

discs..tyres or perhaps the wheels itself.

Take it for balancing and see if that sorts it out Chef

Yep, I would start by checking the wheels and tyres for run-out and balancing. If there is nothing wrong there, then I would have BMW look at the brakes. :thumbs:

i agree, i would start at the wheels, tyres, then to discs and thereafter suspension.

 

[Nastaliq]

Cool will do.
Thanks.

Something is not good there on my f10 520d , I'm on 99k km and my front disks have a bit of ware on them there is absolutely no vibration at any speed breaking , I would check them out

Definitely start with wheels. I had a shudder when braking too on my F30, and wheel balancing sorted it out 100%. Must be honest, still not entirely sure how wheel balancing causes brake shudder, but hey, it worked!
