Parking brake problem:
Has anyone experienced problems with their parking brakes. I’ve recently had my Z in the shop because when ever the car was parked on a slope; it would roll back even if the parking brake was on. I took it to the dealer along with some other minor issues. I picked the car back up today and tried to make sure the parking brake issue was fixed. I applied the parking brakes and tried to push the car, the car didn’t move and the parking brake felt tighter so I thought the problem was fixed. I left the dealer ship and later parked the car on a slope with the parking brake up and guess what the car started to move back again; needless to say I was somewhat disappointed. Has anyone experienced a similar problem?

same issue for me. I think it's just a case of the cable stretching a little when new. Probably happened on the boat over here. Or could be a poor adjustment at the factory. In any case, there should be an adjustment screw to shorten the cable. I've been too busy to look for it. If you fine it, be careful not to make the brakes drag. You'll know it if you do. Smoke and glowing rotor will be your sign of things to come.
