Re: Suzuki Escudo 96 5dr G16a - Drum Brakes Bedding

I think my problem is not the same but one of you may have an idea. I have a Suzuki Escudo 91 and the drum was very hard to remove from the axle. (The handbrake wasn't on) when I put the drum back on again it was very hard and needed some hammering. Is this normal? If in turns %80 then locks up, I ...

Get a hacksaw blade and drag it across the lining in a criss cross pattern to get a good scoring on the lining. Bedding in rear brakes are always a pain on light vehicles. Can you wind your load sensing up to get full pressure to the rears? Thats a really good idea!!! I could trick it indeed ...

The filler hole is the level, so fill it up until it over flows a little and wack the plug in. So just drain it with the plug on the bottom, seal ...

Re: Suzuki Escudo 96 5dr G16a - Drum Brakes Bedding

Check the drum diameters as I suspect that if they are different or out of specification this will have an impact on the brake preformance. The drum diameter I am assuming is in spec because I had it machined by Waikato clutch and brake. The feel is firm, but not stiff and not spongy I bleed the ...

Hello Has anyone had any experience in diagnosing a fault with an Escudo where the air conditioning solenoid does not click in to engage the clutch, nor does the condenser fan start, or the engine change in rpm. I have checked all fuse's with no joy I suspect there is a controller for the aircon in ...
