I've bought an 05 2.0 litre Signum. It looks and drives beautiful, but unfortunately I have the same problem with the suspension, as just going over sharp bumps (speed humps, pot holes) creates a very embarrassing noise, and now my anti skid light has just decided to light up intermittently. I'm not wasting any more time or effort on the suspension, but the anti skid light is another matter. Is it going to cost a bomb, or is it just a switch somewhere, can anyone help please?

Hi. This could simply have been disk pad rattle.

I have a 2003 Signum 2.2, and had some pretty awful sounds coming from rear brakes; sounded like the whole undercarriage was about to drop off. Turned out to be the pads rattling.

One solution is to shim the pads if there is any excessive play.

You only need about 1 or 2 millimeters, and the rattle can be deafening.

Our Signum 3.0 Elite has dreadful suspension problems - loud bumps, grounding out, etc. The garage says it can't see the problem; certainly not worth spending further money on the car - our solution - pay out as little as possible and wait for the car to collapse.
