About a year and a halg ago I purchased a 2002 reg. Golf 1.9 TDI (PD engine) with 33,000 miles on the clock. I have since put another 30k on the clock. From day one I've had a mild "brake judder" problem, usally felt under light and medium braking (i.e. every time I brake). In order to try cure the problem the garage skimmed the discs, then said they had ground the discs to the hubs, then as a last resort fit new discs (front). After each of these attempts the problem seemed to be cured but then returned within a few hunderd miles. Is this a known problem? Could it be a faulty anti-lock system? Help please.

Did you ever get this problem sorted? I have a similar problem with my 2001 Golf GTI 1.8T - 35k miles (which I am selling shortly so need to get fixed). Would rather not pay to have new discs/pads if the problem might be something else.
Many thanks
