Front End Wobble
ANyone else out there experiencing front end wobble on extreme hard turns?
Mostly it happens when cutting the wheel to the extreme left through u-turns or backing out. It doesn't do it everytime but it happens often.
Anyone else have this?

Took it to the dealer today. The tech said the wobble was normal.
However, the tech did recommend new calipers and brake pads and brake fluid change. I ended up shelling out $500.
I had complained about the extremely low brake pedal a couple times and told nothing was wrong. This tech says different. Pisses me off I complained before and was brushed off. At least now the brakes feel almost as good as the GS350 now.

If your turning the wheel all the way and doing U turns or backing out, its MORE THEN LIKELY the tire is hitting the plastics or maybe the fender... maybe rubbing against the inner part of the wheel well. The ribs/treads are making that vibrating feeling.

Sounds like you got roped. New calipers?... doubt it, maybe new pads and rotors.
