Trouble is, as soon as you pull the handbrake, it disappears anyway, simply due to a change of speed; then it simply comes back again; so never sure if it is the back drums. It can just stop for a while by simply going over a hump. Brakes have been stripped down, checked, serviced, etc . I heard somewhere it could also be just vibration. I was going to sell the car at a classic car show simply because its only a 1.8s and I find it a little sedate. However with the brake noise that's going to be hard. I know its nothing serious just noisy, but no buyer going to take my word for it. I think I will try some anti squeal pads when I service it for its winter hibernation. Was odd though hearing £30,000 plus newish Audi's at Deene Park last Sunday with similar noises. Didn't feel so bad with my 27 year old car doing the same.
