erukian Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 So i let my brother move my recently purchased 5speed SC300 as we were re-arranging the cars in our driveway, he backed out with the parking brake engaged and moved maybe 5-10 feet before he stopped cause i was yelling at him. I know it's an honest mistake, but the car was off all night so the brakes were cold, could any damage of been done? i swear when i dis-engage the parking brake now i get like an inch of play that i can wiggle the break up and down before it clicks. Is that normal? I just got the car yesterday so i'm not sure. Thanks, Joe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
