heres my story, i was about to exit dryer rd. going around 50-55mph then some lady with a honda fit was following behind a slow truck and she did a last minute turn....i hit my brakes as hard as i can to avoid hitting her...turns out i skid on the road about 2-3 cars and almost spin out.

anyways enough with the story...my brakes feels like as if i just went over a small dip every time when i tap the brakes softly...it was normal before but does anyone know what's the problem? thanks.

is the pedal vibrating when you apply the brakes? is that what you mean by a "dip"?

yeah i don't understand what you mean by "dip" also, maybe what your feeling is ABS working, or that you have a warped rotor.

Sorry bro but you got some warp rotors now. Check out irotors.com and fix them. Cheap fix.

Well, if it's your ABS system, you'll see the light on the dashboard, is that lit? Run your finger carefully down the brake rotor, is it deeply grooved?
Check your brake fluid level, is it low or discolored?
Do you hear any squeeking when braking, or does it pull to one side?

I somehow doubt it's the rotors,
Try and pull the codes from the computer and see what it says. And I also remeber this happening to other people, and it was just a glitch in the system, it was easily reset. But now that stuff on the server was deleted, maybe someone can chime in and help ya out.

Good luck to ya. :yield:
