E-brake does not work properly.
If I pull it up it will lock-up, but not to the point to where the car won't move. However I do kill the pads.

If I'm on a hill and I pull up on the e-brake just enough the car will roll down the hill.

Please help I want to do stand-stills.
P.S. I've checked the cable. Nope! not that. :confused:

It sounds like there is play in your e-brake cable...you can adjust it with a 10mm deep socket right at the handel, take a peek down in there and you should see what I'm tlaking about.

I noticed you said *cable* and not *cables.* Did you realize there are two?

Having one broken or crimped *will* make a difference. Check em both if you havent already.
