| Hand Brake Creep/Movement |
|
When parking on a hill and applying the handbrake I seem to have developed a small creep/movement, which can be a bit worrying when parking near another car
There is a noise like a spring when it does it. Its as if the rear discs are being allowed to rotate slightly
My rear brakes are almost gone, and I've got some new discs and pads ready to be fitted
Question is, does the hand brake just need adjusting, or do I need to order some new shoes to be fitted at the same time
Car has done 108k, and to my knoledge not had any new shoes fitted previosly
Thanks
Ade

Warning signs that your EPB will need adjusting - it will start to scream shortly and will NOT engage.
