I took my '85 Vanagon into my favorite mechanic (has worked on all of my Vws for the past 10 years) in for new brakes. On the rear brakes, specifically, I got new pads, and new wheel cylinders (drums were OK, just turned those). Anyway, Marc got the brakes back together and now he says we are having parking brake problems. At first, the parking brake would activate and hold only one wheel (the left, I believe) but not the other. Then the wheel that it would hold was getting "stuck". This is not an overly complicated mechanism, or at least it seems to me--he still has it and I'm getting impatient. Any suggestions as to what the problem may be? ____________________________________________________________________________ Donald Baxter 404-447-6831 (Work) JHK & Associates 404-874-3292 (Home) An SAIC Company 404-449-7268 (Facsimile) Opinions mine, not SAIC's or JHK's dbax@netcom.com '85 Vanagon '92 Passat Variant Atlanta, Georgia GO JAYHAWKS!!!!
