supradriver Posted April 12, 2009 Share Posted April 12, 2009 Today i had to brake hard which resulted in locking the front two brakes and smoke coming from the tyres. Now when im driving i get the sound of a flat tyre?? when i drive at speed the noise and vibration seams to go away but it returns as i slow down? i have looked all round my car and found nothing wrong, could i have warped my disks?

madmarf Posted April 12, 2009 Share Posted April 12, 2009 warped disks usualy come from overheating the brakes time and time again, unless there really old disks. you could have cooked the pads, or may be something else like a bush weakend, could even be a flat spot on the tyre. id get it to a garage and check all the underside for the above, and check the tyres jez Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
