I am really struggling to get my 96 ESi Delsol to pass its MOT due to rear brake efficiencies (or lack there of).
I've changed the handbrake cables, put on new a set of new rear calipers and properly adjusted them (using the handbrake), bled the full system, scrubbed the rear disks and pads with 80 grit sandpaper.
Still failed.
I've now changed the brake proportion valve but I suspect it will still be a fail as there didn't seem to be anything obviously wrong with the old one when I took it off.
Retest is tonight so watch this space ...
Really the only thing left at this point to me is my ABS.
It doesn't work by the looks of it, it hasn't worked for a long time as there is no bulb in the dash for it.
If it comes back with a fail then ill start looking in to this.
Can anyone else suggest anything else that could be the culprit?
I found an old thread from years back someone mentioned the Load Detector?

Any other thoughts?
My Delsol has a clean bill of health otherwise so this is really getting to me.
Thanks
Terri
