problem with rear brakes (in english this time )

[zigmund]

Hello everybody,

First i would like to apologize for typing my previous message in dutch. When i was in my car this morning i suddenly tought "damn, i put it in the wrong language". I must have been really confused....


I have a little problem with the right rear brake of my 1987 316 , everytime the road is a bit wet and i brake a little harder my rear right wheel blocks.
When i push my brake pedal really hard on a wet road the car doesnt go straight forward but turns in a 45 ° angle because of that. Any idea of what the problem could be ?

You might want to check the brake cylinder / shoes on the opposite side - if that side is under-performing it could cause the symptoms you describe.

Sorry no-one who reads Dutch could help first time,but us English still think the rest of the world should talk to us in our language!!

If i ask a question, the least i can do is , ask it in the language of the people who i ask to , dunno where my head was when i started typing in dutch... Anyway , i couldnt check my brakes yet because its just to cold here in Belgium for the moment , and i dont have a garage
