Aman Posted July 2, 2012 Report Share Posted July 2, 2012 So I've been curious, is the handbrake supposed to grab aggressively? Because when I park my car on a hill, it'll roll back. What could be the problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackAndBoosted Posted July 2, 2012 Report Share Posted July 2, 2012 check make sure the rear brakes aren't freezing up. i know i need to rebuild mine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aman Posted July 2, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 2, 2012 Wouldn't my car still be able to grab and not roll? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaliConquestAlex Posted July 2, 2012 Report Share Posted July 2, 2012 How does the e-brake function on this car? There's no e-brake shoes, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jayro Posted July 2, 2012 Report Share Posted July 2, 2012 no cables conect to back of calipers and mechanically push them out. most common issue are corroded frozen cables Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Killtodie Posted July 3, 2012 Report Share Posted July 3, 2012 seized up brake cable is most often the cause. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aman Posted July 3, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 3, 2012 Well, I mean the handbrake keeps the car from moving on a level surface, but not on a hill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
