Is it ok to use the parking brake after a long drive?

[dhisky]

Newbie question mga sir:

May nabasa kasi ako na di recommended ang paggamit ng parking brake after a long drive? How true is this? and why?

And (obvioulsy) you do not remember the reason stated why it should not be engaged? It should have been explained in that article as the writer's argument to his claim.

Hot pads stuck against hot discs (or hot shoes against hot drums) could cause material transfer between the two and cause rough braking until the material is worn away. It could also cause warpage because of uneven cooling.

It's not an issue with normal driving unless you live at the bottom of a 1 km downhill driveway braking all the way. Our brakes don't get red hot under normal usage. By the time the car settles into its final parking spot its brakes should have cooled enough to not worry about any parking brake issues. Besides it's more expensive to repair damage from a runaway car than to replace brakes ;)

It's not an article, it's a discussion in a facebook page.

I didn't know the person who said that or I'm not sure how knowledgeable he is when it comes to cars.

That's why I'm confirming it here. Masama bang mag confirm ng question?

Let's just close this forum instead then and mag rely na lang tayo sa mga articles.

Masyado kang seryoso sir.

Thanks for sharing bro.,- I guess our driving conditions here will not be a concern... Plus that fact that the last few kilometers will be cool down mode for almost all of us....

i don't engage parking brake after doing a 5 hot laps on race track (because hot). also after a long drive on heavy rains only (because wet). on normal long drives, i park the car normally with parking brakes engaged.

even if your rear brakes are drum or disc, the rear brakes only get about 30-40% percent of the braking power.
most of the heat is generated at the front wheels so no issue ang pad glazing or warping ng rotors. this applies to regular street driven vehicles..
you cannot make your rotors or drum glow by regular driving even spirited driving.

tsaka TS, when you say long drive that means freeway/expressway driving, its rare that you will frequently slam your brakes while in the freeway just to generate heat sa brakes.

baka yung article na nabasa mo is geared towards track/racing... doon pwede mo ma glaze yung pad mo at magkaroon ng material transfer.

anyways you do not have to worry about engaging your parking brake, mas nakakatakot kung ayaw mag engage parking brake mo. haha.

So true. Once when I forged my car thru flooded streets and I park the car then engaged the parking brake overnight. Morning comes found out my rear brakes got stuck up.

tama! sa racetrack when you enter the pitstop you shouldn't use your handbrake pero on regular driving no need to worry since di naman ganon ka heavy gamit natin sa brakes natin pag daily driving lang. kahit itakbo mo pa ng baguio yan pwede mo i hand brake agad yan.

I drove 300km today...and i used my parking brake. Ano masisira.....wala lol.

Wala pa naman ako manual na nababasa na nagsasabi na you cannot use handbrake/parkig brake after a long drive.

OK le's assume that the argument is true, what if after driving a "long drive" kailangan mo na talagang mag CR sa gasoline station, as in kailangan mo na talaga at ikaw lang mag-isa sa sasakyan. Tapos ang available lang na parking slot ay elevated pa by 20 degrees, does it mean na hindi mo eengage yung parking brakes at all? Tapos hanap na lang ng bata pang kalso.

Tama si Ry_Tower, I don't remember reading anything from the user's manual na bawal gamitin yung parking brakes after normal use.

Pero what if severe driving style ang nangyari, tipong galing sa taas ng Baguio at pababa, tipong racing mode pababa kung baga, ok lang kaya na gamitin yung parking brakes sa baba kung sakaling naisipan nating mag picture-picture ng biglaan?

I've experienced going up and down a mountain with heavy braking (engine and the brakes-kasama pa hand brake at footbrake niya ha to make sure na hindi mag-fade ang normal brakes ko). And upon reaching the foot of the mountain eh nakapag-handbrake na din ako kasi napapa-jingle. Hindi din nag-stuck handbrake.

Again nagagamit ko pa handbrake niya pang-alalay sa footbrakes ha.

Not true.Mas lumalamig nga ang preno pag long drives.Chaka kahit sa heavy braking,d mashado umiinit ang brakes sa likod unlike sa harap.Ung pag dumaan ka sa baha tapos nag handbrake ka pagpark mo.un ang totoo.

Ano ba ginagawa ng mga drifters para makapag execute ng drift?Un na ang kasagutan sa mga katanungan.hehehe

It is okay.

The time it is not advisable to use the parking brake is when you are doing long, continuous hard laps on the track.
