Just parked my '91 tip outside my kids school. Backing the car up is giving the strangest shudder. Fine pulling forward but quite pronounced when backing up slowly.

Don't think it's connected but brake light has been coming on by itself intermittently this week (pads changed less then 6 months ago)

I'll take a better look later when I get home but is this indicative of anything that I should be thinking about?

Cheers,

If the car hops up and down when it shudders, it can be related to an axleshaft.
If it binds and you can feel a pulse on the brake, it might be a warped rear rotor, or the e brake hanging a bit in reverse

Jim, it's quite warm here today and the car has been driven all morning.
