Emergency bake cable question
« on: Monday,February 20, 2023, 09:42:34 AM »
Does the U-shaped emergency brake cable holder inside the chassis rub on the bottom of the coolant tubes when everything
is assembled? (It looks like it could)
The more I do the more I find I need to do....remember your ABC’s …anything but chinesium!

Not sure. I put insulation on my transfer tubes so they might and I wouldn't know. I don't remember it making any noise when the car was new but that was a long time ago and I don't use the e-brake unless I absolutely have to like stop on a hill.

Yes.  Weird design, but I have not noticed a rattle over other Europa noises.

When tight, it should clear the pipes, just.
