This is a strange one!

When braking at speed on the motorway i have a vibration from the ear brakes, if i pull the handbrake when at slower speed the vibration is worse and have a knocking from the NSR wheel, seems like it is locking up? ABS???

Checked rear mounts and all parts on the rear and all seems OK.
New discs and pads was fitted around 1000 miles ago and quality parts used

Any ideas.

Cheers.

Have you jacked the rear up and had a good look round like spinning the wheels and looking for any signs of wear anywhere?

How exactly did you check "all parts on the rear"?

Are the right angled thingies that hold the pads in fitted correctly?

Checked all the rear components and all is fine,no loose bolts or any parts that seem out of place.
one thing id did find was the rear brake compensator was seized? freed this off but it seems that there is a part of it missing?
On the photo below it shows the top white plastic part which i have missing, is this to be on the car or removed when fitted?
It seems that there is nothing to pull the compensator when the suspension goes up and down.

If you're talking about the part with the arrow. It is for shipment and is not important.
