Default Hello New

I have a 2007 Jeep UX and sometimes when I hit the brakes it flutters(not like when the ABS kicks in) , but a small flutter that has been drivin' me crazy! Has anyone ever come across this? Any ideas would be great.

Doesn't seem to be that. It only happens when I press lightly on the brake. Maybe I can try that code thing and see if anything comes up.

Agree; gotta be a warped rotor. Either get it turned or replace it and the brake pads

After driving down the road for about 10 miles, check the wheel temperatures, then the rotor temps and after that the rotor temps. That will tell you if you have brake issues.

Resharp great observation! obviously at least for me, gotta pay better attention to the date. But this is not the first time you have pointed out some obvious flaw in a posting, you got a good eye for the detail.

Hey, I'm guilty of being caught doing that in the past too I'm sure. I think more often than not I just notice new names posting on really old threads cuz often times it's spam that needs to be addressed, so I look closer at things. It's no big deal.....just funny when see it.
