This might be a very wide question, but i wanna hear some of you guys what you might be able to say it is. I have a problem with my car, when i brake my steering shakes.. Its worst when its around 90- 120 km/h. But mostly shakes the hole time when i brake. Just not that much, its worse the harder i brake... It fells like if i let go, that it goes to the right... But i might be wrong on this, but im thinking its the brakes that needs a change? The rear brakes is kinda misscoloured allready, so im gessing this might be the issue?

Warped brake discs,that need replacing along with new brake pads.

if the steering shakes it can only be something connected to the front wheels. rear end issues will shake the car itself rather than the steering

Well the steering shakes, but its goes into the hole car at high speeds or hard braking and also alot between 90-120 km/h. Is that still the brakes?

Could also be bad wheel alignment and / or bad tire balance. That would explain 90 - 120km/h wheel shaking. I had a similar problem on my Focus mk2. Turned out one of the tires was badly out of balance. I've been told that also a bad steering rack might cause such a problem. But i'd go with the tire balance / alignment, should be a lot cheaper than the steering rack.

Are the wheels balanced?

You have warped discs and stuck calipers.

I have had the same and changed discs and pads all round and it's much better, off for new tyres too today so hopefully should be sorted later
