Default 2011 V50 R-Design D4

Hi,

Just bought the above car, lovely and goes like stink but I have a few questions about the brakes & suspension.

This thing has huge front brakes, they look twice the size of the ones on my old V50 2.0D, don’t get me wrong they work brilliantly but whenever I look up for front pads it offers me the std V50 ones. Can anyone shed any light on what I have fitted?

I have some suspension twangs going on when turning on an incline at very slow speeds, both sides. Thinking it may be anti-roll bar bushes sticking or worn, or maybe drop-links. Can’t see any issues with the springs, but not had it on the jack yet.

Is there any differences in the R-Design springs/shocks to the other trim models?

Any help appreciated,

Thanks,
Craig
