Trouble (only sometimes) when completely braking at low speeds?
(I've sent my car over to ford dealership and another mechanic for inspection) Now they've told me that there is nothing wrong with the braking system. Yet sometimes when I'm at low speeds, and I slowly completely brake; I feel a little stutter in the pedal and a small sound (like gently, rapidly hitting plastic fiber with a pencil) will come up. I don't know what this is, and it comes out 1/10 times... So I can't replicate it all the time (thus it didn't come outwhile it was being ttested..) I don't know if this should be an issue or not... since Ford told me there was nothing wrong...
I have a V6 manual transmission 2004 mustang. I currently have to replace my throwout bearing, but that's my only problem...
Anyone has any ideas? Thank you for your support.
Thanks for the heads up, I forgot to add the detail: (It has happenned when Im on Neutral position. I'm not on 1st or 2nd gear...)

It sounds like the ABS is activating - this is often caused by a cracked sensor wheel that intermittently moves out of position from the sensor or spins on the hub. These can be easily checked - they should be firmly attached to the hub and pressed completely against the lip on the hub.
Often times, the rusted hub can be thoroughly cleaned off and coated with 1/8" of JB Weld and the cracked ring can be pressed back onto the coated hub. I have done this numerous times with no reoccurring problems at all.

Manual transmission... u are braking and reducing the speed on ur car on a high gear that is why the pedal seems to vibrate..! make sure u are not driving slow on a high gear. u are already probably used to it but all the gears have they speed req.

because of the fact it sat for 3 mos, verify decrease than hood for unfastened wires, debris, undesirable insulation. make constructive air cleanser's sparkling. considering the fact that u replaced batt, verify those wires, etc. See if batt cable ends are sparkling. See if spark plugs are corroded. See if hollow's & plug wires are ok. & verify fluids, esp trans fluid. Drain gas tank & replenish.
