Car Troubles

[A[L]C]

Hi all,

Wife has a punto sporting. Got a problem whereby when on/near full lock, its like the handbrake is on - ie really hard to go forward or back.

Any ideas?

Sounds like the brake lines on the front have been incorrectly routed. When on full lock it tightens the lines causing the calipers to clamp onto the discs. Had anything done on the front of it recently?

Nope, nothing, only changed the battery

Standard wheels? Any creaking?

yeah fully standard, will have to check for rubbing
