Brake Judder

Got a bit of judder on the front when coming to a halt, having done a search it sounds like the discs are not floating correctly and are dirty, but what should I be looking at cleaning? Any pics and pointers welcome.

Common problem and easily fixed....don't think you need to change them yet. Spin the bobbins that go between disc and rotor centre while dribbling soapy water on them. If you search on "judder" it's all there.....difference is night n day if that's the cause.
