In this video we diagnose and fix a brake judder / vibration on my 2007 BMW E91 335i with 254,000 miles.
This BMW 335i has had a terrible brake judder / vibration for several thousand miles. This happens when braking moderately from 70mph. It gets progressively worse until the speed drops to around 50mph and then goes away. It also gets progressively worse, the more you use the brakes and the more they heat up.

I'm coming back to your video as I didn't watch the end. On BMW, the suspension arm located at the front has an hydro-bushing (under frame side). This bushing can fail and can cause wobbling and steering wheel shaking under braking. Keep and eye on those too. ;-)

Hi, Yes I agree. I replaced these arms before this video as there was some play in the bushes. Good tip for something that needs to be checked 😊

Interesting video, thank you. 12:34 - We usually screw the wheel bolts on with spacers to be 100% sure the disc is tight against the hub. There the disc is kept in place only by the little "safety" disc retaining screw. It's not enough.

Hi, That's a good tip and something I hadn't thought about previously. Thank You :-)

Did the juddering stay away long term? I replaced my rear brakes and it was spot on for a while but came back after a few months. Between 50-60 like you have described although not felt through the steering wheel.

Hi, I've had absolutely no issues since. Done many thousand miles since this vide without issue. Pads are due for replacement again soon. Will check the disks again at this service.

Just a delay in pressure in the calipers thats makes uneven were of rotors and pads? After the diesel scandal ,my trust of german cars is not that high anymore ,doubt them more than otter cars

Quality doesn't seem to be what it used to be that's for sure :-(

My 2012 e93 has same issue with hard braking over 60mph.

@djwwautodiagnostics 7 месяцев назад

Hi, Yes almost certainly caused by warped discs. Does it get worse, the hotter the brakes get?

@davyvandeven5350 6 месяцев назад

Isnt that one of the things that bmw had "build" in there cars to make people come more often back for new brakes and pad by the bmw dealer? Like plastic crap everywhere on the cars

@djwwautodiagnostics Месяц назад

Hi, Just wear and tear on a car used daily I believe in this case. Plastic seems to be the material of choice going forward with all mainstream manufacturers. Seems sometimes you only have to breathe on plastic and it breaks with ease

Why skimp on brakes and pads?😮 always buy top quality breaks.

This is definitely not skimping on cheap brakes. Comline are a premium coated product and have performed superbly since installation. Some of the best brakes I've had for a long time. I've had Mintex and Pagid in the past on this car and neither have been fantastic if I'm honest. Would definitely use Comline brake products again and would recommend them 100%.

You should’ve checked the hub as well

@djwwautodiagnostics Год назад

Hi, the hub / wheel bearing was checked and was 100% smooth with no play or unwanted movement. I have a video coming soon for replacing the wheel bearing on the rear wheel 😀
