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?

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 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/17659-handbrake-hurdle/#findComment-253986 Share on other sites More sharing options...
