Brakes pulsing!

Post by tcasc » Mon Jul 06, 2015 5:27 pm

Hello all.
On braking the brake pedal pulses a little, this happens on normal braking. The ABS light goes out etc as it should so it doesn't report a fault. Vehicle stops as it should, feels confident but this didn't happen before so there must be a problem ! Any ideas. Brake fluid normal quantity.
This happens all the time now, not an intermittent fault.

Thank you !!

Warped disc maybe? Been doing any heavy braking followed by leaving foot on the brake pedal, as they say this causes uneven cooling and can trigger it.
