karlos1987 Posted May 18, 2014 Share Posted May 18, 2014 This morning I went to move my car and as I took the handbrake off and went to pull away it felt as if the handbrake was still on. I pulled away and there was a clunk now everything seems fine. Will my brakes be ok? Or will I have to get the drums off and replace the shoes?

jg321 Posted May 18, 2014 Share Posted May 18, 2014 Mine's done this a few times. My previous Corsa did it too. Never been any other ongoing problems as a result. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karlos1987 Posted May 18, 2014 Author Share Posted May 18, 2014 Ok cheers. Would it have anything to do with me cleaning my wheels yesterday do you think? Sent from my C5303 using Ford OC mobile app Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeanW Posted May 18, 2014 Share Posted May 18, 2014 Could be. A little light corrosion sticking Sent from my GT-I9300 using Ford OC mobile app Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
higgsy Posted May 18, 2014 Share Posted May 18, 2014 Mine did it a few times and my corsa also did it too. Just drop the clutch and it goes bang and frees it up. To be honest it happens a little every time I have washed the car but sometime it seems the shoes have proper welded to the drum.

jeebowhite Posted May 18, 2014 Share Posted May 18, 2014 The way the weather is now it's likely to be rust, either rain or condensation followed by hot and humid will seize it, I wouldn't worry about it.
