Title: Hand Brake Failure.
Post by: stokierob on 18 February 2011, 19:11:29

Hi, guys!

First post so please be gentle!

I've lost the hand brake on my 2001 2.2 diesel Omega! It lifts up and down ok but whatever it was connected to has gone!!

Any ideas...?

What he said ^^^^^^

Will likely require removing some of the exhaust heatshields. Give the nuts a good going over with penitrating fluid first, or your likely to snap some of them.
