On the way home tonight, the car seemed to lock the RHR wheel up and shove me sideways a bit.

Luckily it was at a lowish (!) speed so it wasn't that much of an issue to correct it, but i then tried to make it do it on an open quiet road and it still does it.

Am i right in thinking that the Brake Load Valve may be seized up?

Is it worth having a go with the old faithful WD-40 to see what it does?

Anyone else had an issue like this?

Cheers!

Nope, as that would apply to both brakes, whats RHR?

I take it you have drums, sounds like they need a service!

RHR been Right Hand Rear?

Drums have been serviced around 2k miles ago bit I don't know that they will have become worn in such a short time.

After doing a google, there is a few other Peugeot forums that arnt 206 specific that point towards the Valve.

Ill investigate at the weekend.

Brake valve just applies more breaking pressure, but only when there is weight in the rear. Does your handbrake apply evenly?

Yeah I'm going to do it tomorrow along with the drop links.

Then I can start making a search for some cheap sport wings and bumpers.
