Ha... Hello mate.

And I thought I was the only one lurking around here with an FTO (matt2107)

:-D

You already know what I think about Patt's old car ;-)

If he'd have been ready to sell about 8 months earlier it'd be parked on my drive and not yours!

Any idea which part is squealing?

It had anti squeal shims but they dont do that much really. Same story with my brembos on my 20vt fiat coupe. Pretty uncurable. Copper greased the poo out of everything which solved my mx5 and civic squeaking issues, but not in this instance.

It's very different to the Blueflame twin that was on there before. It's really loud and shakes the ground lol.
