Title: BAD BRAKES
Post by: irratic on 27 August 2008, 23:33:36

ive changed the brakes front and rear . they seem to of took up the play. but when i brake it seems to be all the front , very little rear braking. but on saying that, sometimes the brakes are spot on, stop me on a penny,could the weight compensating valve be at fault ?? or is it a fluid replacement problem??ive tried putting loads of weight in the boot. and towing a trailer but the brakes are all or just on the front.
