Right, have bled the brakes and the initial judder has been 95% eliminated Paul who I helped has said we need to power bleed!! to finally resolve the problem. In addition we replaced the slave cylinder, so all much better. Also checked bearings and discs all seemed good. Thanks to all for help as its a 27 year old P38 am sure I will be back on this forum soon😠

Thanks to everyone, have checked the discs and pads all seem ok, on the bleed my friend has a pit so hoping to access the wheel bleed nipples with him pumping the pedal. I have a video to help and it does instruct to turn the ignition on to activate the ABS pump. hoping to have a go at this on Friday will let you know the result👍

👍will do, thankyou will let you know how it goes.

PS the ABS sensor seems to be fine on that wheel and have checked cleaned ect the others.

Just had a chat with an ex RR mechanic friend who works abroad, I had a rear drivers side break line rupture 6 months ago, I had to crimp off the pipe to get some breaking back to get me to the garage. When I crimped the line I got the initial judder, the break line was replaced but still came back with the initial judder, is it possible there is still air in the system? Shall I do a pressure bleed? M friend said this could be the problem ??

thanks for the reply, not sure about the clicking noise will check, the discs have been on for 6 years but have only done limited millage as it was off the road for a few years they arent worn could they still cause this problem.

Hi all, right have owned my RR P38 Diesel for 20 years, problem! when I press the brake pedal I get what feels like an ABS judder for a second or two but once I depress the pedal further it returns to normal. In addition to the initial judder ABS,TC and handbrake warning lights come on but then go off when the pedal is pressed further. The brakes are firm and work well, any ideas.
