Ok, for the first time I changed Rear Pads and front Discs and Pads. After a massive nightmare with one rear caliper refusing to wind in I eventually managed it and all seemed good. Wheels back on, took it for a spin. Brakes all good... Handbrake however. Doesnt do anything until its at its absolute max extension. Its almost like the bottom notches arent even attached to anything. What have a missed ? :-/ lol .
I dunno if its self adjusting. Its a 2010 Mk3 RS250. I pumped the foot brake then took it for a spin, all seemed ok. Pulled back onto drive and then when I put handbrake on it so light and pulls almost vertical. I tried pulling and releasing it multiple times and pumping foot brake. I'll have to investigate more I guess
I know I has handbrake off when I did the driver side but I have a feeling I might have had it on for one point on the passenger side before I realised
Ive fixed it. Im such a donut. Turns out I needed to start engine, press in pedal, pull handbrake, release pedal, press pedal, pull handbrake.. repeat about 12 times.. then it tightened itself up. Thanks guys!
