Hi all, in answers to another problem. When i break the steering wheel ocilates or moves slightly side to side. My first guess is a warped front disc. Any toher ideas

Does it get worse when breaking at a higher speed ?....If so, then yes, it does sound like warped discs

A very common Scorpio fault. Discs seem to wear out so quickly these days
I blame the pads, a lot more friction efficient, but they sure eat up your discs.
I'd also prefer solid discs on the front, vented ones must be more prone to warping due to the honeycomed construction.
