Trying to thaw out the right rear wheel/brake on the HHR...... Drug it around the block a few times.... Not good. Damn cold here last night and I have to get to the store before the storm hits this afternoon.

Probably not the brake that's frozen up on you Greybeard, more than likely its the parking brake cable that's the culprit. Do you have a heat gun or something you could use to gently heat the cable and brake drum on that corner(obviously being super careful to not set your HHR on fire)?

Another "emergency" solution would be trying to back the adjuster off completely on that corner so you're mobile again, its a trick I was taught when living in Buffalo.

Nothing like that and it's to cold to be crawling around under a car. Whatever.

After your highlight the BB code and copy it, just paste it Directly into the reply to thread box you type in. Don't hit the add picture symbol at the top of the box.



I did mine like this when I added my rear seat. Older pic, before I recovered my headliner in black suede and changed to black leather seats. I need to update this pic in the Spring.



Combined upper and lower oem doorpanels.
