I put my ebrake on while I was on a hill yesterday with the car in neutral so that it would be resting on the ebrake and not the auto tranny. well when I left go of the regular brake the car started to roll backwards. if I do the same thing in my tsx the car doesnt move. has anyone else had this problem before.

 

im assuming you had it pushed down all the way to the floor...mine did that for a while then i got the rear brakes serviced and it stopped. maybe the drum mechanism is worn down.

 

well i just had 30k service done nad forgot to tell them about it and it still does it.

 

You probably just need to adjust the parking brake.

 

I agree that happened to me and my dad adjusted it for me.

 

mine does the same. i guess it's just worn down from accidentally driving with the brake on.

 

Just need to tighten the tension on the ebrake line. They tend to slacken over time.

 

should have been checked during a 30k id complain!!!

 

can anyone tell me how to do this myself? (tighten the tension)
