Had a problem with my leon today, on the way home from work the front drivers side brake it seems screamed/screeched for a good 50 meters then when i came to a stop it stopped all together. I pulled up asap but nothing was amiss???

Think of it this way.

you've gone to a gig, or a festival. where is the band, infront or behind you.

so, is there any need to upgrade the rear? no.

in my opinion I would like a bit more from the rears just to give it that little bit more

I stand by what i previously said.

the correct set up in the front, is all you need. Also, dont forget set up, also includes the set up of the head unit settings too.

i wouldnt want you to waste money on the rears when there is no need. unless you care about the people in the back. which, i dont.

You still need a little sound in the back, if you upgrade the fronts and not the back it'll sound aweful.

Little, yes.
but there is nothing wrong with the OE speakers in the first place.

good head unit, set up correctly there will be no issues. Unless you're a real anal SQ *****, correctly adjusted you wont notice a difference. Or have a set up which requires amping atleast.

Sounds like a stone stuck between the disc and guard which then fell out when you stopped. Makes a horrendous noise!

Booked my car in to have the Aux port investigated. All audio through it is horribly distorted.
First time they couldn't find anything wrong.
Second time they couldn't find anything wrong and and asked me to come down and show them.

Went there today to collect the car to show them, 10 seconds into me showing them "Oh yeah!"
Bugger, That means its going back for a third time!

Remap and DPF delete tomorrow though!
