So not long ago had both cv shafts replaced & car was driving beautifully again.

Washed the car couple days ago, and by coincidence (?) when slowing down to a stop, at about 5kph the brake pedal violently shudders for a couple seconds as the car finally stops, almost feels like traction control kicking in

Thinking it might be a failing transmission, I downshifted shifted manually into first & the noise still appeared, so I'm leaning towards the abs system, sensor etc but I know nothing of this.

Did you wash the car just after having a drive? If so you may have still had the disks hot and when hit with water they warped. I've had this happen before. You will need to have them ground or replaced.

No, car was stationary. So my regular mechanic spent the day checking it out to no avail unfortunately 😩

Toyota were quick to find that the previous mechanic had fitted one of the wheel sensors "incorrectly"

Glad was fixed, but at my expense left a bad taste in my mouth 🤦‍♂️
