    Mach1, its a common problem, its the handbrake that sticks after washing the car. The issue is reported quite widely on here

      Yep - don't put the hand brake on after a wash OR perhaps go for a drive round the block to stop the stickin'.

      You'll need to put it in drive then reverse a few times to get her to unstick. Be prepared for a bit of a ugly noise...
