If you get "rumble" when applying your brakes at high speeds chances are its a slightly warped discs. They are spinning a lot faster at 95 then at 60, so if one is out just a bit you will feel it.

If you feel it in the wheel replace the front discs, if its in your seat replace the rear discs.


OE MB discs seem to be built to higher specs, maybe try a set of them for high speed running.

Front-end rumble could also be caused by failing front wheel bearings. When did you check/adjust/repack yours last?

Don't ask how I know, I'll tell you: I had a front wheel bearing fail on the highway at speed. Wheel bearing cage failed and welded itself to the front spindle by the time I could stop the car.

Terrifying.
