A not uncommon problem after i.e. a long donwhill ride with constant braking
or an long emergency brake.
The long heated period (on downhill) or quick heat build-up (emergency)
introduces heat related, but unacceptable run-out in the disc(s) which
results in the juddering.
This juddering most likely is worse when applying the brakes just a bit and
gets less when you increase the brake power.
With only 6000 miles I would try to get it fixed under guarantee although
they will surely try to point to your driving!!
