02 xsara 110 handbrake on discs

Unread post by ODBODD »

If whilst moving i lift the handbrake until i feel a slight pressure the lever moves up and down slightly. This is worse on a bumpy road. Last week i stopped and applied the handbrake as usual but when my two rear seat passengers got out the car rolled forwards and the lever would then pull up another 3 notches. Is it a faulty cable and are they difficult to fit?
