I do most repairs/servicing myself but didn't fancy lying on my back trying to sort my hand brake which was sticking on.So I booked it into a local independant.They said the actuator had siezed so they freed it off and fitted new shoes.They said they had tried it a few times and it was still sticking so they thought it needed a new actuator which I agreed to.I went to pick it up and the hand brake was useless,coming right up.I told them it was not right and then they said it needs a new cable so I went back the next day to get a new cable which I fitted myself, I got the hand brake to work well and I was happyish.
Well I was sat at a set of lights a couple of days later and when I tried to set off,yes the hand brake was seized on,nothing I could do,I had to move. I rang them not a happy chappy and was told the bit that the cable joins to was worn and it might be that.
Why keep guessing at what it might be and just fix the damn thing.
