Just a quickie folks.

Under mild braking in my Octy RS i'm getting a bad vibration through the steering wheel, but under heavy braking everything is normal. The car does not pull to left or right either. I'm suspecting my discs are warped

Can anyone think of anything else, or am i right?

Cheers

Sounds like warped discs to me.

Maybe.....on the other hand, this is worth a read.......

I had warped discs all round on my Octy vRS after 25,000 miles - replaced under warranty but I had to pay half of the cost for the new pads as they were fairly worn out anyway. Never found out what caused it but I suspect it was driving through deep water while the discs were hot after a lot of heavy braking.

IIRC it the vibration was bad when braking gently, not so bad when braking hard.
