Re: Rear Shoe Problem on Lanos 1.3

thanks thats a great help...... We did think it was a bit un-usual for a car not to have self- adjusters now, no never did the cylinders they never mentioned them, the reason i asked about the ABS is passenger rear wheel locks when the ABS is activated. Just shows you can't trust any garage.
