Jim, my judder story 3 years ago:
Installed new new front callipers, front disks and front pads. All parts genuine Audi, all done by Reading Audi, with 2 year warranty. Lot's of money, but all good.
6 months later car develops judder when braking at 'motorway' speeds, i.e. from 60-70mph down to about 40-50 mph. No judder at lower speeds. Judder 'feels' on the steering wheel too.
Back to Reading Audi -- please check my brakes under warranty. They test drive the car and return to me with diagnosis: REAR warped disks. WTF? I ask them again: you sure? (judder feels more from front than from rear). They say yes, sure. I thought they play with me to avoid fixing stuff under warranty.
I give them go ahead to change rear disks (thinking I will definitely kill them if judder won't disappear and claim my money back for rear disks).
They change rear disks only and judder disappears. Completely gone.
Lesson learned: it's not bleeding obvious where the judder comes from.
