Should I have the emergency brake adjusted? I just had new front brakes put on.

    If the e/brake holds with moderate pressure it is OK. Brake fluid costs about $75 to $100 in most shops to flush out the system parts and labor (tax extra)in our area.

    Thank you, Patrick! I did just get a quote from Les Schwab to bleed, flush and install new fluid, and adjust e/brake for $81.30 includes tax. Thought you might like to know. I understand they are very trustworthy.
    Do you have your own shop? If so, where? tcfheckel
