Not yet.
Think mine might be down to the bushes or something - although it's not juddering as bad recently.. and the brakes seem to have improved in stopping power

Broster on your braking problem... I used to get that when mine overheated. Basically I got it a little with 2ltrcalipers/6slots and fast road pads but then I sold them to upgrade to V6. In the time between I used my old 1.2 16V brakes which had solid discs. The pads only had about 1mm of material left and I couldnt be bothered to change them as I would only be using them for a week or so. Using those brakes was the scariest thing ive ever done. They juddered like MAD when they got hot and they got hot VERY VERY quickly...
How much material is left on your V6's? If you need new gimme a shout (tradeclub member )

i had this problem up untill last thursday when i changed all the front bushes for powerflex items and changed the my balljoints too.
car is behaving itself now.....
ball joints were a cnut to get out without the proper tools... eventully i lost my temper with the feckers and hammered the feck out of them will they came out had to drill the bushes out....
