Hello All,
Ive recently purchased a 2006 Vogue and am loving it. Only issue I have is I bought it knowing that there was a vibration under braking. Had a garage take a look and they advised that the front left was clearly overheating, they could tell by the disc colour. The discs, pads and calipers have only done about 1k and look ok. Had the brake hose changed, but still has same issue. Its ok to start with but when the brakes are warmed up I can hear a knocking from the brake area in line with the speed. The garage have advised the next option would be to change the abs pump/control unit. Quite expensive, so I wondered if anyone had any thoughts on this please? Theres no warning lights on, could it be an unlucky newish warped disc, or is this a known fault with the abs pump? Also Ive noticed the handbrake doesn't seem to hold anything, could that be an issue?
Any advice most appreciated, and many thanks.
