My parking brake holds fine, but when I release it, it seems like the caliper is not retracting properly.
I get a chirping sound from the Left Rear caliper when I drive the car. Question: Would this indicate a bad caliper, or could it just be a problem with the parking brake cable? Any help would be greatly appreciated. _________________________________ '76 Malaga Red |

It can also be goo inside the caliper hanging up the mechanism, which means a caliper rebuild. I've also had the pin that tensions the spring on the caliper break off.
