Braking Issue
My recently acquired E350 seems to have a little bit of a wobble when applying the brakes. Some investigation over the last few weeks has told me this is a issue with this car and is remedied by swapping out the rotors.....Has anyone had this issue??

I think many have had this and it seems to be warped rotors. I spoke with my service rep on this and he said he's aware of the issue and that he'd get me "squared away." I drop the car off tomorrow. Hopefully they fix it.

Snake Doctor,you are a wealth of information.....Thanks so much for all your responses!! Another query,I'm about to get rotors and brake pads to replace the almost definitely warped ones........which are better,the ceramic or the other type??

I can't take credit. It's just all info I come across spending too much time on this forum haha. If you search on warped rotors in this sub forum here (c207/a207), I think there are a few threads on people replacing their rotors and pads. They share what brand and all that.

Thanks for your input......only reason i'm asking about this is that is there is a noticeable bump felt when coming to a stop...it truly feels as though there is not uniformity between the brake pads and the rotor on my front brakes. Not taking any chances in that arena..
I've already ordered recommended front rotors and pads ,so we'll see what happens after they have been installed.....Thanks guys!!
