Just been out for a short spin in my car, and worryingly I'm getting some judder from the front end under heavy braking.

I suspect it may be warped discs, if this turns out to be the case, are aftermarket jobbies up to scratch for this car or do I go for OEM?

Of course if anyone knows of an upgrade (within reason )to be done at this time feel free to chip in.

There are after market and OEM BBK available but these I wo0uld say is not within reason. I recently bought a pair of cross drilled discs and SS pipes from ECS in the states on business. Pads wise I fitted Ferodo DS. Cost around 450 in total. I am not sure if there any aftermarket discs available in the UK. (well I had problems sourcing any thing other that plain discs) SS pipes can be bought easily. The OEM discs etc are good. I needed new discs so decided to give this set up a go.

I've never had problems with the discs on this car, they are pretty good as Bling said, are you sure it's not wheel balancing? Have the tyres been on for a while?

Hi-spec will make up brake discs on req

The problem is that the car sits for long periods of time with no use due to my work, so when I do start to drive it again there is always a noticable part of the disc thats been "marked" by the pads, but it usually goes after a day or so.

This time however it isn't fading and there is only a judder on braking, I would have thought I'd have felt a balancing issue at other times.
