The car has done about 8000km so far, so good.
I have been noticing that nearly everytime i bring the car to a complete stop - and when i release the brakes to move forward, i notice what feels like a grabbing sensation coming from (maybe?) a rear brake. It does not release at the same time as the other brakes and by it doing this, it sends a shudder thru the car and then releases.
All good until the next time i bring the car to a complete stop. No difference on hills or flats, its feels like it is grabbing and then shudders when the brake is released to move forward again.
Kinda disturbing after the age of the car. Been reading up on the hand brake adjustment (mine is getting close to full travel) and when parked on the drive way and release the handbrake - there is a 'ping' noise that is heard from the rear of the car - looks like time for the spanner monkeys to get underneath and do some adjustments...
Looking forward to your thoughts and experiences ....
