| Parking Brake help required |
|
Can anyone help me, I need some advice / pictures , on how to inspect and clean the parking brake setup.
I have a slight squeek now and then, and I suspect it's just a build up of brake dust and crap. I have a compressor (and a mask) for cleaning calipers and discs etc. I am used to squeel shims, copper slip for sliders, etc and have always changed my own, pads, discs, shoes etc. But this is a bit into the unkown. Any advice would be great.
The disco is only 14 months old and I supose I should take it to the dealer, but I would take better care of it.
But I'm not saying all dealers are the same!!!!!

There is a TSB for the parking brake, see if applies to your Vin: TSB no: LA206-002 (Rear Brake Noise) “There are only three sports: bullfighting, motor racing, and mountaineering; all the rest are merely gamesâ€

You should subscribe to Land Rover GTR (See the sticky post at the top of Technical Forum on this site for a link)
It will cost you a subscription, but you will then have access to the full on-line work shop manual and technical library for the vehicle. If you plan to do your own mechanical work then you will find all the procedures there.
I suggest you try it for a day subscription. Certainly would be cheaper than a dealer rate for a park brake strip and clean.
