May 17, 200521 yr #1 When I pull the hand brake whilst driving ( handbrake turn in emergancy etc :| ) my T clunks and crunches bad like ive just broken somthing! I only did it two times then never again coz it counds like its hurting my car? My old VN V6 did it too...? Is this a problem or do all you guys get a loud bang and it just means nothing? Some light on this issue would be great thanks.
May 18, 200521 yr #2 I think you'll find its the type of handbrake it is. Alot of the old cars with drum brakes at the rear work the same as if you were putting on the brake but only locks up the rear. Some of the newer cars might have the handbrake system that locks the driveshaft which might make a clunking sound.Our old landrover used to have one of those handbrakes that lock the driveshaft and it made a clunking sound as it grabbed and released when you pulled the handbrake up before you stop.Dunno mate.. just a Thought.Jon
