did you managed to sort the squeal out, Ive just put new ultimax pads on and its squealing like b*tch

Fitted new polybush front engine mount and dogmount bushes. It has deffo changed the way the car feels in terms of braking, accelerating and gear changes. Highly recommended the two. Only downside is there is more vibration in the cabin at idle and high revs
