Im getting a little intermitent sqeak at slow speeds (relative to the speed) when the car is warm. Im guessing its the brakes but it is louder when i bear left. Is this something that is likely to require attention or is it just a minor anoyance I'll have to live with.

Exactly the same thing happens to me - I am assuming (hoping...) that it's nothing serious and just needs a bit of copper grease, but haven't got round to doing it yet.

Have you bedded the brakes in recently?

There is a thread on here some where but basically its goes

brake from 30mph to stop 3 times

then 70mph 3 times

on the last stop keep holding the pedal down very hard for 3 min (until your foot hurts)

Which should fix it until next time.

Have fun finding a private road to do it all on :-)
