Thread: Bumping

  1. 08-15-2012 01:30 PM #1
    hey everyone,
    can someone help me? i have a mk4 jetta, after having my breaks done a couple times i have noticed that when i am braking there is what seems to be bumping (like the car is basically rocking everytime the wheels make a full rotation or something), what exactly is that and how can i fix it so it will not come back?

    any help is great, thanks

    Sort of an odd description. Maybe your rotors are warped. Does the pedal pulse at all? Ever replaced the rotors?

    its kind of hard to describe. Its when i brake it feels like the car is basically bucking. i have never replaced the rotors i have only had them turned down a couple times and can recal feeling a little in the pedal..
