Help! Need a Car moving from Sutton to Burton Asap.


Recommended Posts

Hoping someone can help us out as my grandads 1998 VW Passat O/S front caliper jammed on today setting fire to the linnings and melting the front wheel trim!

 

The car is currently parked in a side street in the Sutton Coldfield / Little Aston B74 area and I need it taking to a garage in Burton just off the A38 DE14.

 

Just thought I'd see if anyone could help or wants the work as I can't tow it with my friends bar because of the brake issue, so needs to be a truck or trailer job.

 

Monnies will of course be traded for such an event. :-)

Too heavy for my van and dolly but I'll see what I can do regards a friend who may be able to help

Jack up remove wheel push brake pads back with screwdriver or chisel the burnt pad away, add a brake pipe clamp to the flexi hose and drive home carefully while firmly holding the steering wheel when braking.

Just like to point out that there is more than one Sutton so the title was confusing.

 

Glad it is sorted.

Yes your right I should have said Sutton Coldfield in the title but wrote it in a rush! Thanks though POD.

I was thinking Sutton? That's near Macclesfield right ?

Well both Suttons are in the UK so it pretty close I reckon.
