  • Vibration when braking.

    Hi. I have some vibration when I'm braking. It's coming from the rear left wheel because I have tested by using the handbrake and it vibrates the whole car. What could it possibly be? I have visually inspected the drum for any damage. Could it be the bearing?

    could be....but if the drum is warped from hard braking or just being old...it may be time to replace it.

      yes, vibration only while applying the brake indicates a warped drum.
