Hi There Was wondering if anyone can Confirm that The Te Rear Springs On a sedan are the same as a TF and on as am looking at Taller springs for the rear Due to Towing and Only ones i have found are to Suit TF On. I thought these were all the same???

Also Had Major work Done Last September Including T Belt Water Pump Major Service and New Front Shocks Rotors and Pads. However since Every now and then it feels like the Front Brakes are stuck on and There is a Shudder Through the Wheel when the Brakes are applied.

I took it back to the mechanic who blamed everything else apart from the Brakes.
I say Brakes as My Mate had His Tf done at the same place and has same problem but according to the Mechanic Mine was Tyres and my Mates is something else. Hence we don't go back there now and i will be getting checked by a new Mechanic soon.
Sorry if any of this is a repost.

Cheers
Daza

Springs front and rear are the same from TE/KE on, exept the 380.

To me, sounds like you have warped discs, did the mechanic actually change the pads and rotors like he says?

Contact Murph03 from the forums, he has a Tyre place in SA and should get you sorted

My money is on warped rotors and poss jammed sliders on the callipers

+1 for warped rotors, also possibly wheel alignment if it is out alot but unlikely.

Yeah been for wheel allingment after replacing the Tyres as were suposedly out of round. Didn't bother pursuing it further as was worried would do other things to the car and mainly happens when it gets warm so at the moment verry intermitant but going to another Mechanic that Comes well reconmended and then sort the other one out.
