Corsa braking query

    My daughter has just bought a T reg 973cc Corsa GLS. It's a nice clean
    little car with only 43,000 on the clock. The only problem it has, is when
    braking at speeds over 35 - 40 mph, the brake pedal goes up and down, very
    rhythmically and the braking is affected with what feels like brake fade
    then ok then fade then ok.
    Can anyone suggest what to look for and a possible solution?

    Thanks in anticipation

    Sounds like a warped disc.

    Sounds like warped discs. The pads will probably be U/S too.

    I would get someone sensible to test drive it and confirm this.

    Vauxhall have just dropped the price on disc & pad sets so genuine ones are
    probably your best bet.

    Possible problem with ABS activating inadvertantly.
