Those links should hopefully sort out the creaking.  I might knock some up for my car if a get a chance.  Its a nice simple design.

Right.... i think ive got to the bottom of the noise from the front calipers. Im pretty sure that its the pad clips, as i can almost replicate the noise by pulling on them. One is still cracked... but i dont think i can be bothered to do anything about it... we shall see.

Getting the arb links fitted next week with the help of alexperkins  :happy2:

One last thing.... in the front light console in the roof lining, should i have 3 bulbs? I cant rember what my old car had  :confused:

Is it not 3 bulbs, a main one and 2 that point to either front seat (like reading lights)?! I'm sure thats what mine has when I took it apart today

Rich, would it not be worth trying a set of OEM Cupra pad clips? Only circa £10 from Dave @ Sere Motors..

Ive got some in the loft.  :happy2: I was going to by a complete new set from SERE (carriers and calipers) but I pretty sure its the clips rubbing. I was worried that it might be something more serious  :scared:

Pretty sure I have a set of OEM clips if you need Rich. I have ran the R clips on my last 2 cars with no problem.  :confused:
