Brake Judder TSB....

Not slam so hard that you will cause damage. Just harder than normal, like as if you had to stop quickly or slow down quickly, not stopping on a dime.

And I should feel the stearing wheel vibrate? Is that all I should look for?

Yea, you will feel pulsating in the steering wheel, a little bit in the pedals, and possibly the whole car.

Funny thing is I felt it in the whole car more than the pedal or wheel.
