tandm Posted June 7, 2003 Report Share Posted June 7, 2003 Well when I put the brakes on stopping from 30 or so, the car shudders. I've replaced the brake pads, any other ideas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GRN96WS6 Posted June 7, 2003 Report Share Posted June 7, 2003 Warped rotors maybe? It is a GM afterall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slow4now Posted June 7, 2003 Report Share Posted June 7, 2003 Yeah they are warped rotors. You can have them resurfaced or you can replace them. I'm not sure if you need a press to remove them or not. Hopefully Chris or someone who knows the car can tell you. smile.gif Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EVILGTP98 Posted June 8, 2003 Report Share Posted June 8, 2003 Mine shakes pretty good as well, my buddies GTP did it to and we replaced the rotors, pads and all and it still does it, our next try is goin to be the rear rotors but I always thought it was weird that both of ours did it. Mines a 98 and his is a 97. I know that aint alot of help, just thought I would throw in my 2 cents. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rally Red Evo Posted June 10, 2003 Report Share Posted June 10, 2003 When I had my GTP I also had issues with the rotors. The factory rotors were pretty bad. I bought some after market (Can't think of the make) and that seemed to help. Mine was also a 98. Just something else to check possibly is front end alignment, but if it only does it under braking that's probably not it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ziggy1647545504 Posted June 11, 2003 Report Share Posted June 11, 2003 Definately rotors. Alignment is almost never a factor when there is a shudder or a vibration. If it only shudders on braking, only from 30 and down, pull the rotors, and take them in to have them checked. They may not be able to surface them. Depends on how much material is left.
