How old is the car?
What is the cars mileage?
What is the engine type?
Have you upgraded the brakes?
Have you serviced it as per the manual?
Where do you usual drive?
Do you do the work yourself on the car?

THe car is a octavia 1.9 SLX TDI, year 2000 estate, brakes on the car, was standard from new, mileage is now 42,500, as a mechanical fitter by trade i tend to service the car myself now it is out of warranty,my mate is an MOT inspector and it leaves him scratching his head.With regards to the shudder,i am lead to believe that is the ABS working,thanks for yoyr reply
