| Re: Groaning noise! Never heard of it on a Fabia before! And my memory says that the issue with the Octy vRS was eventually traced to pad friction co-efficients too, and the correct fix was a minor change to the friction material. So the fix if you really can't live with it is to try a little Coppaslip, and if that doesn't work, a different make of brake pads. |

| Re: Groaning noise! It's a Fabia issue and the previous poster was correct, it's been covered to death. |
