I am loving the 1.7 in the sud. It has so much power its almost ridiculous but I have a slight problem with the brakes. I was on the motorway and came over a crest and there was heavy traffic. I brakes heavily and it locked up and the whole car shot into the other lane and almost did a 360. Luckily there were no cars in the other lane otherwise goodbye sud and maybe me :(

What could be causing the brakes to lock up? The system is bled properly as the brake light doesn't flicker. Would it be the brake compensator in the rear?
