braking issue - rotors?
So, when Im braking from like 40-30mph with the pedal decently pressed in(not all the way), my car feels like there is another force applying more pressure to the brake system, and it is like bucking....
like the brakes are applied harder then softer, harder then softer, etc....
but i know that the pedal is applied gradually and Im not tapping the brake pedal(which is what the car feels like)
perhaps it is the rotors?
Im not sure....
help
Thanks

It sounds like you may have warped rotors. I recommend Brembo blank-style rotors.
When you get the new ones installed, I recommend using a torque wrench to loosen and re-tighten every lug nut to 80ft-lb, especially after the car has been serviced.

If you look at my old rotors, you'll notice the alternating light and dark areas on the outter circumference. This happened when I switched to Hawk HP+ track pads. Yes, I knew this was gonna happen, it said right on the box it'll cause excessive rotor wear.
