Car Shakes at the end of braking 900 1997

Hey All,

Last week, I did a 1000-mile highway trip with my 940. Everything went totally smoothly, and I really enjoyed the improved comfort after changing the control arm stay bushings.

However, the day after, while I was driving in the city, I noticed that when I was braking, everything felt normal until the very last part of the braking, when the car starts to shake or shudder/vibrate severely.
The vibration is not on the steering wheel, I can feel that it is on the front of the car.

I tried braking in neutral gear, and the shaking still happens.

The steering wheel doesn’t shake or wiggle, so I’m thinking it’s not a warped disc. I'd be surprise anyway because it happened out of the blue.

Could this be related to the ABS system kicking in weirdly at low speed? Maybe a sensor issue?

I was thinking of removing the ABS fuse to temporarily disable it and see if the issue persists or goes away.

I’d appreciate any input or if anyone’s experienced something similar.

Thank you!
Alex
