The handbrake on my 172 is shocking.
I recently fit a pair of new genuine cables and both calipers seem to function ok.
It's running oem brembos and standard disks both look in decent condition.
Are there any stickier pads out there which might improve it?
It does hold but I have to pull it to what feels like is going to snap the cables for it to hold on a steep hill.
I Also own a mk3 and the handbrake on that is good enough to lock the wheels from moving.
