    Electronic hand brake squeal and error

    Range Rover 2005 electronic hand brake makes an awful noise when applied and shows fault. I can release and the error goes away but I can’t use handbrake, it just makes an awful noise and shows a fault every time. Is it just adjustment or will it be mega bucks?

    Struggling with handbrake

    Folks, I've not been able to get my handbrake to release properly for a while now. The lever would never stay down when released and would spring back up (maybe 1 click). The brake itself was coming on ok and appeared to be releasing fine until recently after a little wading I could feel it...

    How Do I? Park Brake Module

    I had a problem with the electric park brake sticking on, which was sorted by my garage, but they told me the module would not reset, and a new one would cost nearly £1,000 fitted. Is this realistic, or is there another way to fix this? I'd really appreciate any advice.

    Seized handbrake on Disco 2

    Spent ten minutes defrosting Discovery II TD5 (including interior ice) only to find I couldn't pull away due to what appears to be a seized handbrake. It's not that cold! Didn't have any trouble in the December snow when it was -13. I'm guessing the shoes are stuck to the drum either with...

    Melted hand brake cable!!

    Hi, First timer here so go gentle... I've got a beautiful H reg 200tdi Disco and had a thing once in a while for the last few months where you turn the key and something is going "tick, tick, tick, tick" quite rapidly and the truck doesn't start. After a couple of turns it usually kicked in...

    Defender Handbrake Strip And Rebuild

    If your handbrake sticks on or is ineffective, chances are the expander unit is full of mud and general gunk that builds up over the years. If your handbrake is ineffective then it might just be out of adjustment, so try turning the adjuster clockwise and seeing if it grips. If not then its...

    Replacing Handbrake Drum And Rear Output Shaft Oil Seal On A Series

    You may notice oil coming out of your handbrake (transmission brake) drum. This will in all probability be a leak from the gearbox rear output shaft oil seal. Later series models have an oil catcher on the output flange, and the oil is supposed to leak out of a hole in the casting, just in...
