I've just replaced the rear disks on my 98 UK Turbo- (also new pads).

I've re-adjusted the handbrake at the back of the rear hubs, but, with the wheels in the air and the handbrake on, the N/S wheel can be moved slightly. This is accompanied by the noise of the handbrake shoe springs moving. Once this slight movement is taken up, the wheel comes to a hard stop, so the handbrake is moving, but seems to have some play in it. The O/S one does not move at all.


Anyone any ideas ?
