Help Rear Brake Shoes and Hanbrake

Featured Replies

Hi All,

First posting on this site so don't be too hard on me!!!

I have a Fabia diesel and the rear brake shoes are worn to nothing. There is no hanbrake and the Handbrake adjuster inside the car has been wound up so far I can see at least 3 inches of thread!!! In fact not even sure what size the nut is let alone get a spanner on it to slacken the cables off.

Any help, tips and advice would be very welcome on changing rear shoes etc as I have the parts and I am raring to go!!

Many Thanks

Ive done a guide in the Fabia section on cleaning and adjusting the rear drums and shoes, should help a bit with your task.
