Figured I now have two vehicles with these symptoms, though they vary greatly in severity. One has just the slightest shudder of the steering wheel under heavy braking, the other has a greater amount though not to the point of great concern. Both vehicles brake smoothly and straight otherwise with no pedal pulsation. Both vehicles drive straight and tight. Both vehicles have the wheels torqued to first 40 ft-lbs then full torque specs with my own Matco torque wrench which goes off for calibration every few years. Tire pressures are maintained. And both vehicles have had brake work within the past few years including lubing pins, sliders and even thoroughly preparing the hub flanges prior to installing rotors.
I would like to open a discussion about possible causes for these steering wheel shudders, as well as generally what can cause these types of symptoms.
