My Focus brakes were juddering and it was worn discs. It’s a pretty easy job to change out the discs and pads if you’re the sort that’s comfortable with basic jobs on your bike:
Jack the car up, put it on axle stands, wheel(s – both, but one at a time) off then undo 2 long bolts (02 Focus) and pop the caliper off, discs come straight off (ie not bolted to the hubs other than with wheelnuts) so easy to swap, pop off the retaining spring (I think) for the pads, push the piston back in with a bit of wood then put the new pads and spring in, bolt the caliper back up then put the wheel on. Takes about 30 minutes for the pair if the bolts aren’t a complete b1tch to get off.
You can get new pads and discs for around £50 as I think someone else mentioned. Factor in at least half again for a garage to fit them as they’ll charge you minimum an hour plus VAT.
