Parking Brake?

Post by camper guy »

My parking brake, (hand lever), comes all the way up when I engage it, and if I put the car in drive it doesn't move, but in reverse it will. Decided to check this when I parked on a hill and engaged the brake and put the car in park, it still rolled back so that the transmission was holding it. Any ideas?

It's a 95 850 turbo.
