If I am under 40 mph I get no shimmy or shake at all. What might be causing my mini shake? speed User Sep 14, 2009, 5:07 PM Post #2 of 3 (1648 views) Re: Slight shake in steering when first braking Sign In loose wheel might do it GM ASEP 26 SCC Milford ASE certified in Brakes and Electrical on Thursday April 5th 2012 Hammer Time Ultimate Carjunky / Moderator Sep 14, 2009, 5:34 PM Post #3 of 3 (1647 views) Re: Slight shake in steering when first braking Sign In That's usually a problem with the brake rotors and replacing them will solve it. Sometimes they get a variation in thickness that causes a hard pulsation and sometimes they are out of paralell which will give you the symptom you have. You'll have to use a dial indicator to confirm this. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We offer help in answering questions, clarifying things or giving advice but we are not a substitute for an on-site inspection by a professional.   Automotive Repair     Auto Body Repair and Refinishing     Heating or AC Issues     Electrical and Wiring     Brake Systems     Car Stereo Repair Advice     General Discussions     Car Making Funny Noises     Engine Fault Codes     Engine Troubles     Exhaust Systems     Steering and Suspension     Transmission Troubles     Tricks of the Trade Automotive World     General Discussions     Antique Car Talk     Car Shows and Events     The Bargin Bin     Motor Vehicle Inspection     Car Care Tips     Traffic Tickets     Gasoline, Motor Oils, Concept Cars and Engines     Auto Insurance, Financing, Leases, Warranties Truck Repair     General Discussions     Truck Engine Repair     Truck Suspension Repair Motorcycle Repair     General Discussions     Motorcycle Engine Repair CarJunky     Open Posting     Board FAQ's     New Board Suggestions
