Handbrake Woes!
Afternoon all,
When driving back from a shopping trip today there was a sudden clunk from the rear of the car, i knew it was something to do with the rear brakes straight away. Got home and took the rear wheel off and there were bits of metal at the bottom of the disc guard. Started to lose light at that point, so though I'd go and re-attach the top of my Knuckle!!! Anyway, are the '05 plate V70's on shoes or could this be a pad that has decided to disintergrate? Help would be much appreciated Neil

Sounds serious! I would suspect the handbrake but as your going to have to disassemble to get to them you will be able to eliminate the pads. Needless to say the car should not be driven until checked as you could end up trashing the hub at a cost of several hundred pounds ! Good Luck.

As above really, you'll soon see if your parking brake shoes/components have given up the ghost once your rear discs are off.
How does the handbrake feel at the lever? I wouldn't drive it either until you've had a good look in there.

Thanks for that Gents, will get the local garage out to it in the morning, at least it happened when I'd booked the week off. Nice one nick, although I do feel a little sick now, will be looking around the scrappies tomorrow I feel for that backing mould! Could always be worse I guess

I have had new shoes sat in the garage for 4 weeks now trying to get a decent day to do them. No noises or odd feeling on the handbrake BUT i know they are a real expensive weak point. TOMORROW WITHOUT FAIL THEY ARE GETTING CHANGED!!!!! Good Luck with yours Darryl |

handbrake woes
hi hunty, about two weeks ago similar thing with my 04 V70. just pulled off, hell of a bang and car ground to halt. AA job to take me home. stripped rear brake assembly on off-side, removed disc to find that friction lining on one of the handbrake shoes had come off , gone around and jammed. whole job very straight forward and quite quick. replacement handbrake shoes about £16 +vat from motor factors (for both wheels).....paul1947

Just had the full job done on my 2002 V70 with parts from FRF after the rear OS wheel seized. Same story as others, pulling away from parked, loud clunk and no go. Reversed very gingerly back the two feet I'd travelled and called out Green Flag to get the car to a local garage. Used JRC Motors in Alnwick for repairs and they have been excellent.

well it looks like I'm going to be busy today again, I don't have rubbing noise or anything like that but when I pull the handbreak N/S/R wheel gets block, and only will come loss when I pull forward, yesterday had to revers out and that was different story, shoes didn't like that I'm hoping that is only the handbreak geting stuck due to dirt ect. if not more money need to be spend and I only own this car for 2 days LOL
