so i was putting my new radio in today and it works good smile.gif
but after I was done putting all the plastics in, I put my e brake back down cause i needed to put my car in neutral since i have an auto.
Like i was saying, I put the e brake back down, and the last 3 clicks felt like nothing so I pulled it back up and it was too easy to pull, and I knew something was wrong.
Took my car for a ride around the block and I could hear almost like a whoosh sound from my drivers side.
I pulled the e brake a few times and both wheels would lock and drag, but as I released it slowly, my drivers side would stay locked when the e brake was half off, and my passenger side was free. Once I released it all the way, the drivers side would spin, but you could still hear the whoosh sounds.
I think it's just a little hung up, which isn't too bad because it could have been completely locked.
What would be the quickest way to fix it? I know I will have to go take the wheel, brake, and rotor off, but is there a quicker fix at all?

this is just a greatttt thing to happen on my birthday. wooo thumbsdown.gif
