Freezing Brakes ?

Dec 05, 2004 4 Replies

Hi,



I suppose now once the cold season is almost upon us, my handbrakes is going to start freezing on again.



It was greased last year which seemed to help a bit, but still froze on a couple of times.



I heard this is a commish fault, but is there a (cheap !) cure ?

Hi, try by replacing the steel wire and grease it before mounting as much as possible with dense liquid lubricating oil and of course park your Marea in such a way that no handbreaks is needed.

All the very best! Klemen

When the weather gets too cold I just leave the handbrake off and the car in gear.

No use if you live on a hill though.
