Have any of you had problems with the handbrake on ur clios after the car has been washed or it has been raining? A couple of weeks ago on a morning after I had washed my car, I was setting off and the handbrake wouldnt release from the left rear axle. This is even tho the handbrake light is...

All the trackdays I have ever done have been dry conditions. It cant last forever! Anyone done a trackday in the wet? What was it like?

Ok I drive an Unski... But I thought Id ask here. Im lowered 90mm and when its wet out there with a bit of surface water I get dragged all over the road. Does this happen to any of you slammed people out there?

Ok i put some of this in my expansion tank. Nothing really happened to start with. After i used the car a couple of times the temp came down a small amount. The after a few more runs its come down some more. Each time i use it it seems to take longer to make the dials rise and the maximum temps...

After the recent wet weather my car is now very rough (sounds like its missing) rev counter is very jerky, losing lots of power. Will it go away if i keep it dry and keep running it or is there something i should do?

Right now ive been driving for five years now so am pretty used to driving in the rain etc, but today when i was coming home from work i almost stacked my car into a roundabout! i was doing 25-30 at the most and it started to understeer slightly, i lifted off just slighly and that was it the...

this might sound like a strange one but after ive washed my car, or its been outside in the rain for a bit...........whenever i then drive it and come to brake, my brakes are VERY good......shouldnt they be a bit crap until they dry ?.....

My brakes have felt noticably unresponsive in the terrential rain weve had lately. I wouldnt describe them as spongy - they feel just as firm under your foot.. they just dont brake as agressively as normal. Any ideas? Anyone else noticed the same?
