There is shaking in my brake pedal when I brake like I was coming to a stop sign or a light...the gear shifter shakes, I can feel it in my pedals. I took to the dealership and they said that the rear rotars were a little warped and that they changed them. Took it home next day the shaking started again but has got worse. I took it back and they test drove it but didn't find anything so I picked it up and as soon as I was driving on the highway to get off and started braking it started shaking. I was then told that because it is a unique transmission that actually the shaking was from it trying to down shift as I was braking while in automatic. So I put it in manual and down shifted and I felt it shake again. This happens when I drive normally but not all the time so in order to have to get them to see or feel it I have to find it so went on smooth, open road and tried basically to perfect finding it. Now some peoples opinions are if you have to find the problem then avoid it. They don't understand that it is happening when I drive normally sometimes. I feel like I'm going nuts so any advice would be greatly appreciated! :)

Thank you guys for the advice!! I don't understand why they would replace the rear rotors and not the front. I only have 5400 miles on it. I don't know but I feel like I'm getting the run-around from the dealership and it is driving me nuts because I love this car!! I will be a regular visitor on this site! It is great to have other ISF owners to talk to about my baby!

Thanks again you guys! Big Mike, no it hasn't seen any track time......actually never thought or knew you could??!! :) I ordered it and tracked it coming from Japan cause they didn't have my color that I wanted which is the blue!! What a beautiful color!!! I didn't know you could actually have those cut. I bought an extended 7 year warranty paid cash, am HOPING maybe they aren't going to charge me for it. Maybe there is fine print saying fault of the owner if under certain amount of miles. I called on that too, they aren't cheap fronts/375 per back/480 per and that doesn't include pads which aren't cheap either. I meet with them at 1pm, third time to try and fix this problem. There is no other dealership in this area. You ever truly feel like you're going nuts??!! I have to admit this site and you guys have given me a confidence to go there today and figure this out because it is a little intimidating dealing with them when you can't pin point the problem. Thank You!! ;-)
