whats wrong with my brakes?
Hi guys!
I have a 06 Z with stock brakes.
When i brake from say 60-0 my brake pedal pulsates.
Is that normal?
I have 33k on the rotors and i don't know how many on the pads.

But also it could very well be a warped rotor:
You can often see warpage in a brake rotor by simply looking at it. If the rotor has telltale glazed or discolored patches on its face, chances are it is warped. Measuring it with a dial indicator and checking it for flatness with a straight edge will confirm the diagnosis.

Is it under hard braking? If it is, then as mentioned above it can be the ABS kicking in.
If it's not ABS then you have uneven pad deposits on the rotors. There is a method for removing them, but if you're thinking of turning/cutting the rotors don't bother and get new ones. The cost vs new rotors doesn't make it worth it.
