The front today have new discs and pads so there new now and work fine.
The big problem I'm still having the car seems to hold backwards better down hill then facing forward down hill.
I've tried slackening the handbrake right off and pumping the pedal while the engine off then a just handbrake centre console.

It's now coming down to either the brand make Eicher rear brake pads or hand brake cables are not good enough. I don't think there enough friction for the pads to hold. I can see the handbrake a just and caliper arms to.
So I'm thinking of changing these to either genuine peugeot rear pads?
I know there mintex and pagid but want to make sure I get the best for a better chance of things working?
I've spoken to several people there all saying the front brakes normal driving most pads will do fine. But for the rear there not used enough so friction problems with cheaper rear pads course problems I've been told.
