Hi,
I tried to pull away from being parked in my Panda today (04 plate) and found that I couldn't move
It happens when I try both in first and reverse. The back of the car dips/rises as if the handbrake is still on. The brake lights are off, and the brake pedal seems to be fine, so I'm just wondering what the problem could be.
If the handbrake was staying on, then surely I wouldn't feel any resistance from the cable when I tried to put the handbrake on again? It doesn't feel like that though - it feels normal. Also, I'd have thought the car could overpower the handbrake given enough revs, but it just doesn't budge.
Any ideas? If not, I can't even drive it to the garage, so I'd have to call the AA out.
