Please can someone describe how the hand brake of a car is supposed to work

It is intended to hold cars on slopey topography instead of the gear pack Paul.

When the hand brake is engaged and in good working condition, it should disable movement/acceleration meaning a hand brake enabled would stop the tyres (rear wheels) from rolling

Hi all,

I realised there is a need for us to have a thread where we can say it very loud. Hence, the creation of this room.

In this room, we can derail as much as we want, discuss off topics, etc.

But please, no derogatory words, sales, adverts, spams or posting. Other than these, fire on!

*Note that this room is not for posting our normal car issues and seeking solutions for them. We have the entire section, outside this room, for that.

Moderator.

Hi all,

I'm having power steering issues with my Honda DC 2006. When the car is in motion the steering feels easy, smooth and soft but when I'm stationary, without revving, the steering feels hard and difficult and when I force it the power steering starts making noise.

Please what could be the problem and how do I fix it.

My daily douse of panadol has increased. Old any advice?

It is not common because it was sold brand new in Nigeria and it has other competitive common brands which has better foothold in Nigeria
hyundai i10 hatch and sedan
kia picanto
Toyota yaris

the attrage is a colt successor which wasn't also common in Nigeria. it's a 2014 vehicle if it's in good condition you can buy the auto is a jatco CVT while the I will prefer you pick manual. The engine is same as the colt from 2003 so shouldn't cost a arm or leg. The fuel economy is around 3.5 to 4L per 100km now I call that ojukokoro grin

please I need help,

both are identical in fuel economy. cost of maintenance depends on location in North and east the Nissan parts would be expensive in south West it's the cheapest transport oriented vehicle to maintain.

the Nissan almera N16 2000-2006 body doesn't age well, the electrical doesn't like bypass or abuse. The QG15/18DE is a sucker for crankshaft and camshaft position sensor you just change the sensor and you are good. You can disable the NATS too, to avoid wahala.

The N15 1993 to 1999 Nissan Almera is a solid caterpillar the engine is not prone to sensor issues the only down side is the size it's a bit cramp at the back.

Now the most appropriate oriented vehicle I admire for transport is the golf wagon, has space for passengers and boot space for cargo which can be used to make extra cash. passengers also prefer wagon since they don't have to share sitting space with cargo. In the north where 4 people sit at the back the wagon will accommodate cargo or sometimes 4people are squeezed there for half the price. The golf is a reliable vehicle all round and strong too.

You answered it yourself but need to take it to a shop for verification. Power steering. It might be a leak that's fixable without replacement
