Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

    Took the wifes 04 Almera in to be NCT'd this morning and it failed on the handbrake. The fella in the centre told me that the handbrake should be stopping both back wheels but is only stopping one of them. Any ideas if this is a major fix? Cheers.

    I had something similar to this problem in a skoda i owned. It happened to be a handbrake cylinder that was gone. Think it was about 25 euro for the part. Get i checked out this could be the problem.

    Or one of the handbrake cables might be stretched, not a major job
    to get fixed.
