Get someone to check your hand brake...It may be jammed or something causing the hand brake to still have a bit of grab.
Mine grabs on for a bit as it rolls down the hill and suddenly stop..eventually it gives in and releases and i have a normal smooth ride hahaha phong =P~

Fixed sqeaking it was the blody hubcap being loose there you go
as for grinding its not the hand brake or the brakes sticking but i dont trust the mechanic much because he said i can "look over the car full for 500" so im poping round to dads later and get him to look also soething i noticed only today is slopy gear change and delay going into revers only notice today as its 40 deg must get that looked at mabey its not cooling enough

WHen the handbrake is not adjusted properly, you will get a strange noise coming from the rear like the brakes are dragging. Some mechs don't bother checking properly and make sure all surfaces are clean and the shoes adjusted right.
Find yourself a good mech at a brake place or try a Ford dealer who has a good mech to adjust it properly, should fix it. |
