[QUOTE="wingzee, post: 671326, member: 22730"] Slight vibrations on steering wheel can be felt when doing high-speed braking. Brought the car to mech and upon checking, it was discovered that the front disc rotors have warped. The rotors were just replaced about 15k km ago. Lesson learnt that always only use original BMW rotors instead of OEM ones such as Febi or Brembo, despite they cost twice as much, as least they last much longer.
