Hey, my car failed its mot the other day coz the rear brakes dont function enough. While driving along i can put the handbrake on fully and can barely hear them go on and it doesnt slow my car down nearly enough.
Pads have plenty life on em and i've tried adjusting the bolt inside the car under the plastic trim but this didnt seem to help as the bolt is adjusted as far as it'll go i think.
The workings of the calliper are ok as i have just stripped them down and inspected them too and the brake fluid is fine too.
Dunno if this maybe means the cables have stretched too much and need replaced
