Happy New Year to all: I picked up my 67 Alpine from a friend who finished off the wiring and interior. Looks great, just about finished, one or two problems that can wait for spring. One that can't,

Happy New Year to you as well! Now to your problem. Being a '67 model, your car should be a Series V and Series Vs have a brake booster. That would be the first place I would look. They have a tende

All but the very last Alpine V's had the auto adjust system. The last of the breed went back to the manual adjust system as used on the Alpine I to IV and on the Triumph TR's. No, I don't know the ch

I am not sure but I have a "feeling" that factory went back to manual adjust because of some malfunctions which were something like descripted earlier in this discussion. Sorry of my bad English, I h

There were some problems with the automatic adjusting brakes but they were pretty reliable: I have around 100,000 miles or so on them and they never let me down. The reason for the switch is the same

If this was a case of 4 wheel disc brakes I would tell you to "pony up" for new rear brake pads. Very common when the (disc brake pistons) are pushed way out of the calipers they have a tendency to b

If the brake pedal itself is not adjusted properly and not letting the master fully return then preasure will build up in the system as the brakes heat up causing the brakes to engauge and then relea

Hey Bill, I've had two flavours of sticking brakes on my S3 Alpine. First was due to the flexible hoses collapsing on the inside (looked fine from outside). This resulted in the booster having enough
