mine ran out yesterday, i have been checking everything over and its booked in on monday so cant drive till then, god knows if it will pass or not. fingers crossed

According to TB .. most handbrake problems are caused by people NOT using them ... seems this causes them to sieze up/stick etc .... :(
So .. if you have an auto ..... don't just use PARK ... use the handbrake as well .. thats what it was designed for !!! :)
It won't cause the handbrake to wear out ... the shoes can't "wear" if the wheels are not rotating !!!!!
-
Not a bad result -- as has been said .... could've been worse !
-
Nice easy fix Jon... You may as well strip both sides and give them a good service :y :y :y

I never use the handbrake ,but mrs Bitz drives the car once or twice a month and always uses it coz she was taught that she should,so that seems to keep things moving freely. :)
