“Buying a used car is stressful so I’m really glad I booked Edd to carry out the car inspection. It all worked out exactly how he said it would and he sent me a detailed report of his findings afterwards. We then spoke on the phone as I had some questions about issues he’d found with the car. As a result, I raised these with the car dealer and they agreed to rectify them. I felt much more confident buying the car. Thanks Edd.”

  • When the hand brake appears to be stuck and doesn't release.

When should you replace Porsche Handbrake shoe?

How can I extend the life of my Porsche handbrake shoes?

There is only one thing to remember and that is to make sure the vehicle is already stationary before applying the handbrake, as this will prevent any actual frictional wear.

What happens during a Handbrake Shoe replacement on my Porsche?

  • Mechanic will inspect the handbrake system.
  • If necessary, the handbrake shoes will be replaced.
  • Mechanic will calibrate the if electronically applied.
  • Mechanic will test the handbrake.
  • If necessary, the mechanic will make any adjustments to optimise the operation of the handbrake.
