Thank you everybody for your responses; they are quite beneficial. I am working night shifts, so I will respond late. My car is equipped with a handbrake and features an automatic gearbox, which includes a gear selector with positions for drive (D), neutral (N), reverse (R), and a park (P) button at the top. The vehicle must be in neutral, the parking brake disengaged, and the 'P' button deactivated to remove the disc. Are the shoes satisfactory, or must I replace them as well? The handbrake is not functioning effectively, therefore I am considering whether I can only tweak the shoes following the replacement of the discs as Jim suggested. What occurs when you press the 'p' button? Does it activate the pads or the shoes?
