handbrake not fully releasing in wet



  Octavia VRS


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 off on the dash. I had to put the car into reverse and slowly try and get the car to move. It makes quite a loud noise when it is finally released as well which cant be good for the car. A mate of mine with a 172 says this also has happened to his and he doesnt seem too concerned.

This has also happened when I have set off after it has been raining the night before. Any similar cases?
