I tried to move my car today it appear that my barkes have frozen on and the wheels wont turn by leaving the engine running and revving like you wouldnt believe i have unlocked my front wheels but my back wheels remain stuck solid.
What can I do to unfreeze the brakes ?? Or do I only get to use my car again when the weather warms up ? sometime in March maybe :lmao:

Any advice appreciated as I cant get it to a garage and im not sur ethey can do anything if I did ???

hi

we sometime get this on bev zafira she has brake discs front and back just by putting the car in 1st and putting a little pressure on the clutch the car will just move a inch or so, then put into reverse and doing the same thing just keep doing it until it loosens off.

and one way i have learnt now is never have youre handbrake on full in weather like this.

i forgot to say if it goes with a large clunk sound this is normal.

I agree with Les, when we came back from Florida in October our car had been parked at Manchester airport for a month and because of the constant rain seizing the brakes, the car wouldn't move.

DH just kept pulling the car forward in first, then reversing, forwards and backwards etc and after about 10 minutes the car just went forward. It did make one hell of a noise mind, worthy of any race track.

I was having kittens but even though there were black tyre marks and clunking noises it went fine and we drove back up to Scotland, 6 hours later with no problems.
