| -3- EP.{G. Eric Platford - Chief Quality Engineer}12/MH.{M. Huckerby}14.37 (h) Brakes at times set up a high frequency squeak - suspect from servo; also at times servo grunts and shudders and lacks "sweet take-on"; otherwise quite effective. There is still an inclination for the steering to be affected if brakes applied while cornering at high speed. RB{R. Bowen} EP{G. Eric Platford - Chief Quality Engineer} | ||
