Re: Hand Brake Issue

Thanks for your responses here, very helpful. The hand brake goes through all the clicks until there is none and then holds at a good 45 degree angle.

Re: Hand Brake Issue

Auto Brake works fine then releases fine its just putting the hand brake which goes all the way up up through the clicks, it feels as though it should have less clicks.

58,000 On the clock. Could the drum discs be knackered?

Hand Brake Issue

Hi there
I have a Polo 1.2 TDI 2010 model, Sounds like a tank, handles like a tank but its economical.
I have an issue with the hand brake, I was on a steep hill and had to do a hand brake hill start. Pulled the hand brake but the brakes kept slipping. Its OK on easy slopes but i'm a little worried ...
