Hi everyone, I have had this issue with my car for the last week or so where the handbrake is on after 15 mins of driving it revs between the auto stop and 1 on mph gauge.

Hi. The handbrake actuator lever has been sticking a bit so I tried to work the nut with a spanner to free it up, however I have been heavy handed as the nut and top of the bolt (the one that activates the caliper when the handbrake is used) has snapped off. My question is, is it possible to...

Good evening lads and lasses, After fitting some new brake shoes on the rear, the bloody handbrake cable on my 04plate, 1.7 Combo snapped on Saturday. It’s snapped on the offside rear, where the cable goes into the hub. I’ve checked on Euro Car Parts and it would seem that there’s more than...

Hi All. Managed to get shoes changed today. Nearside also needed new self adjuster and wheel cylinder. Bled brakes no problem and had car out for a spin with handbrake still backed off at the 10mm bolt inside the car. Car brakes nice and even, no pulling to one side or anything. Starts to...

Hey all So I bought a Pioneer after market stereo for my 2008 Zafira B Design (1.9 CDTI). But it can only play videos when the car is parked and the handbrake is on. Thing is, I'm not sure where I need to connect the green wire coming from the stereo to the handbrake wiring. I know there are...

hi all, After my 99 plate Astravan had been stood a while, the handbrake cable typically stuck on, I am now in the process of replacing the centre cable. I have it all disconnected bar a little tricky bit near the brake drum. I have it unclipped at the drum so have the end loose its just the...
