Handbrake issue...
« on: Oct 10th, 2006, 3:51pm »		 Quote Quote Modify Modify
Got this annoying problem with the handbrake. When I'm on a slight incline, facing in either direction, and I engange the handbrake, it does not always hold the car.
 
Does anyone know what the problem is here, and is there a way to fix this?
