Feeling a pulsing brake pedal? Learn the likely causes, which parts to inspect first, and whether it’s safe to keep driving your Amarok II.
If you're feeling a rhythmic pulsation through the brake pedal when stopping your Volkswagen Amarok II, don't ignore it. In most cases, the culprit is a warped or unevenly worn brake disc (rotor) that creates a vibration as the brake pads meet the high and low spots during each revolution. It can also be caused by pad material transferred unevenly onto the disc surface, creating a similar 'judder' effect.
