rear brake linkage?

[chris_p]

I'm confused.
My dad has looked at my car and doesn't think the rear brakes are right, there's meant to be a linkage connecting the rears brakes and around the axcel area?

I called up holden and apparently the clio doesn't come with this part.

Can anyone shed some light? I can get more info off my dad if needed.

Thanks

It doesn't have a bias valve, Unless its a Mk1 i believe

Its controlled electronically

the reason I ask is that when giving it an mot, there was no reading given on the brake sensor, perhaps this is because it's done electronicly...

cheers mate!

Just seems odd all the mechanics are there just no linkage :S

the load sensing valve isn't attached on the cup, do a search there is a vosa newsletter for MOT testers, to explain why there is no braking force on the rear.

Thanks for your help, probably the most informative reply I've ever recieved on CS
