   As the title says really....
   
   Get vibration under braking from say 70-50mph.
   
   Its very simular to the vibration if you needed your wheels balancing (all 4 wheels are spot on btw)
   
   Discs and pads have all been replaced in the last years to no benefit.
   
   Any guesses?

   Nope not been doing any heavy braking at all since they have been fitted.
