I got my DS back from the garage a couple of weeks ago as you know and it has been good, today I have done 500klm in it and from starting this morning I occasionally, when I put my foot on the brake button (just as I touched it) got a vibration but more like a BUZZ she braked normally but it was just that initial touch it squawked almost. it did nt do it all the time either and I used them a great deal today as I drove up into the mountains with very winding roads.
ANY ideas? something I need to worry about?
Also even though its been tuned (EI) it tends to judder a bit when I am using the gears to slow my descent on a hill other than that she was great a few rattles in the doors and one of the door locks needs adjusting to lock but all in all I am pleased.
I tried to stay away but you lot are just so good

Probably air in the LHM circuit.

Is it an easy thing for me to purge myself ? Thank you

Sounds like you should bleed your brakes, this should be done without a pressurised system. Just loosen your pressure-valve on the regulator, and with help from a friend bleed the front brake calipers and rear cilinders. On a semi-auto the right front is bled thru the centrifugal regulator. The shakes and shutters when descending a hill could indicate worn engine mounts. you should check them. Good luck

Cool thanks for that and Il take a look at the mounts too

Bleeding rear brakes without pressure is useless. The pressure for rear breaks comes for the DS indirectly and for the ID directly from the rear suspension.

Use a bridge ( is that the word in english?)  to do the rear breaks.

Your farting brakepedal will probably be gone after a bleeding of the front though!

You’re right, Bogaard!  ops:

Indeed use a four post lift (bridge) to do the rear brakes! (easy access)

Thank you all I am pleased it nothing too bad after such a lovely drive
