Default Re: BRAKES losing presure! any ideas

I hope you don't take this $hit the wrong way...I'd hate to hear that someone crashed while using the ebrake....

You do know that while you're driving it's best to pull the brake release handle/ lever (depending on the application) while you apply foot pressure to the ebrake, that way if you start to lock up the brakes you can ease up on the ebrake and it'll retract to it's normal position instead of locking up the brakes.

Again, sorry to imply the obvious but a lot of people don't know how to really brake using the ebrake.

As far as the problem goes, I haven't noticed anything like it with my 3. I have about 22k on it at this point. I'm sure you'll figure it out though.
