hi all , , ,, , need to pick ur brains ,, , , , , got a 2002 mondeo tddi with brake problem , , ,, been on going for a few weeks now , ,, when pressing the brake i get a judder as if the ABS is coming on if you hit snow or ice if i realease and brake again its fine , , , , , replaced the master cylinder , ABS block , just replaces the brake fluid today and its still the same ???????
any ideas might stop me getting rid of it , starting to cost me on parts

possiably a warped disc, OR even just a build up of rust on the inner part of the disc (the center's of the disc where the pads dont touch) causing the brake pads to judder

sounds like warped discs to me
does the steering wheel wobble slightly too?

Could be a cracked ABS ring

[i]'a build up of rust on the inner part of the disc (the center's of the disc where the pads dont touch)'[/i] this gives you the same feeling through the pedal, worth taking a look.
