    Guys tanong ko lang, meron po kasing incident sa brand new honda civic 1.8 ng friend ko. Ginamit nya yung car and after 15 minutes of driving, nag-alert yung dashboard. Then she found out na yung dalawang gulong nya sa rear, umuusok yung brakes. DInala nya sa CASA since under warranty pa, hindi makita ng mga mekaniko yung reason kung bakit umusok yung brakes sa likod. Hindi rin sya nag-hard brake, yung normal lang. Ano po kaya ang reason? Any theories?

    Umuusok? Hmmm... some brake fluid spilled on the rotors?

    heh, malamang she left the E-brake (handbrake) on. kinda typical for females to forget to release the handbrake.


    aite, peace.

    yup probably a handbrake problem that was left up slightly... did the dealer do anything daw when it was brought in?

    excuse me, what do you mean by this? TYPICAL for FEMALES???
    so if a male forgets releasing the handbrake, it isn't typical???

    sensya na, na bother lang kasi talaga ako dito.

    I believe they dont mean no harm to someone. It just a poetic verse of a man sometimes. If this cause a bothersome...... apology is to all of us.

    *jusipus, ako rin malaki ang hinala ko na hindi niya naibaba ang E.brake niya kaya sunog ang preno. Paaminin mo sa iyo, tiyak tama ang hinala namin, this happened to my wife too before sa van namin.

    I remember our Toyota Sequoia V8. Laging nalilimutang i-disengage ang handbrake. Sa lakas ng makina, you'll never notice that the handbrake (footbrake) is still engaged.

    Ganun din after several minutes of driving umuusok na yung gulong.

    dude, huwag mo na palakihin ang comment ni KBR, we all know naman that he don't mean any harm... so just let it go....

    tama sila malamang stock up yun break due to handbrake...but teka lang kung ito yun bagong FD, meron siyang alarm if you forget to release the handbrake tapos umandar...
