applying the footbrake before the handbrake works.
I can no longer push the car with the handbrake on!
Glad to hear it!
I will explain this in three years time if the problem is still there to the MOT tester and he will pass the car.
I don't think so!
You may be ok if the test uses a rolling road rather than plates. The MOT test rules say:
Hydraulic parking brakes as a sole means of operation are not acceptable on vehicles first used on or after 1 January 1968. However, they may be used to assist the application or release of a mechanical brake.
I will take up the fault with the dealer when he is available on Tuesday and keep you informed.
Good plan.
