handling

Featured Replies

a few issues been driving round today and for some reason going round lefthand bends the inside left keeps spinning up and the handling seems very vague as if it seems to want to break loose ( when the tyres are not spinning and spinning ) not sure whats going on i am on winter tyres at the moment with a lot of rain and i dont get to drive the car that often as the misses uses it i got the bike, also looking at getting new discs and was wondering what people think about these http://www.demon-tweeks.co.uk/performance/brake-pads/car/skoda/octavia-96-04-vrs/2004/1-8-turbo/ebc-brakes-redstuff-performance-brake-pads-front-pad-set and these http://www.demon-tweeks.co.uk/performance/brake-discs/car/skoda/octavia-96-04-vrs/2004/1-8-turbo/ebc-brakes-turbo-groove-performance-brake-discs-front-pair

many thanks fatbob

Quite expensive discs/pads, are the OEM ones no good? can buy all the discs and pads for £150

the last set i had put on by a garage are shocking when it's cold and you are driving along it takes for ever and a day for them to get initial bite when travelling down the autobahn it is quite scary even in the rain they are scary so need a new set may just go for oem ones then if they are are good enough was just wanting somthing a little diffrent

OEM are good enough for normal road use, maybe you had bad pads before?

Not sure about the handling issue, maybe get it on a ramp and get it checked over underneath. Could just be the winter tyres though.

Pagid discs & pads are great :thumbup:

Demon-Tweeks has always been expensive :thumbdown:
